Unexpected

Christmas with the Millers

Amara

Trying for a new baby was a lot easier than the first time around but proved to be a huge test to our relationship. After finding out I was pregnant again things were a bit hectic around the house. The boys were still growing and I had opened another practice in the city. We were both happy about the new baby and were getting used to the idea of having three kids when I miscarried. It was tough to deal with because we were ready to have another baby in the house after holding it off for three years. The boys were getting older and I was ready for them to have a little sister.

With Kason getting ready for his next fight. Me working and making sure the boys were set for school life got in the way of our romance. I was feeling down from my miscarriage and had been seeing my therapist to help cope with the loss. Kason went to a few sessions and it was then we decided to change things up this Christmas to help us get back to being us. Instead of staying home we decided to take a much needed vacation. And there was no better place than where we got married. I was glad to go back to the place that held my happiest memory with Kason and couldn't wait to make new ones with the boys. I also knew that it would give me time to let the romance flow with my husband.

The boys loved the idea of going on a trip for Christmas and excited that they get to see all their family. They were even more happy to know that Jake and Valerie's son Devin would be coming to.

"Are the boys packed for the flight?"

"Yes, although it took some time to get them to pick which toy they wanted to bring with them."

"They are definitely your sons."

"Do you need this many bags? Because once the boys are asleep it's you and me mama and we won't be needing clothes for what I want us to do."

"I'll need clothes for when they're awake and want to do something. And you know my mom has planned stuff for us to do as a family."

"Very true, I know I don't say it often but I'm very grateful for everything that you do."

"Thank you babe and you don't have to. I know it's been hard these past few months but we'll get through it like we always do."

"I love you."

"I love you to." Kason leaned in to kiss me but before we could get to far our sons decided to make an appearance.

"Mommy, daddy. We're ready!" Knox said running into the room with Kellan right behind him.

"That's great buddy, you guys promise to behave on the flight?"

"Yes daddy."

"Good then I'll think about letting you guys ride the jet ski's by yourselves."

"No."

"Mommy, daddy promised."

"Don't give me that look."

"Come on Amara if they behave that'll be a great reward and I'll be on it with them until they get the hang of it."

"Fine, don't let them go too fast."

"Yay, let's go!" Knox said pulling me off the bed. We made it to the airport with enough time to make sure the boys used the bathroom and had a snack to eat.

Knox and Kellan slept through most of the flight and everyone was able to catch their flight on time. After we all settled in and unpacked we had dinner then went to relax on the beach. As Kason promised the boys rode jet ski's as well as other things that he planned for us to do.
