"Yes Jack I will marry you."
Jack smiled and swung Jackie around happily.
"Jack do you still think of Dallas?"
"Yeah I do. Although I don't ponder over it. It is hard sometimes. I do think we would be divorced with in the year. We were getting along but her family hated me. And she hated my siblings. She hated rosemary she would say terrible things behind her back and would even make comments, one time Joe cut into her and so did Jean and Eunice. I did too. Rosie didn't understand. We all did. I hate when people mock her. That's why I do a lot with the special Olympics with Eunice. We are all involved with it. Rosie means so much to us."
"Jack I love your siblings. I don't think your sisters like me too much. Kick does but they call me the Deb."
"They will grow to love you. I can't take the kids away from their aunts and uncles. They are all very close."
"I know I can see that. I saw that tonight. You are close. I just don't want to replace your kids mom."
"Jackie the kids love you. Abby never showed the kids much love. They got the love from me and their aunts and uncles. That's how it was growing up for us. Our dad gave us love and our mom focused on religion. And making sure we were all thin and beautiful looking she said Teddy would grow up to be a big fat man. We all grew up. When we had kids we all devoted our self's to them. Making sure they knew we loved them for who they were and not what they looked like. Jackie the kids are thrilled to have you in their lives. I'm thrilled to have you as my wife."
"Daddy?"
