  But let patience have her perfect work, that you may be perfect and entire, lacking in nothing.~James 1:4 

Danny's POV: (An hour before)

I can't believe we were in Hope Valley Texas! The church was amazing. I wish Mom and Dad could have made it though. Dad had to stay because mom hadn't been feeling well. We just can't tell my Uncle yet. Of course, we would tell him later. Dad said Uncle has too much on his plate anyway. Aren't they brothers......shouldn't they tell each other everything? Well at leat my Uncle seemed nice. Church service was pretty cool! Then there was that Seth guy.....Does he hate me?

I climb up the stairs and stop outside mom and dad's room. I could hear Dad shuffling around. He was really nervous about seeing his brother and his nieces. I knocked on the door.

"Come in" I hear Mum say.

I opened the door and walked in. Mum was in bed with tissues surrounding her. Mum looked horrible. She actually looked grey. She has been so weak that she hasn't really been out of bed. I climbed into bed beside her. I leaned back on the headboard as I say "Hey Mum, how do you feel?"

Her eyes sparkle as she smiles at me. "I'm fine Danny"

I stare into her Blue-green eyes I always envied. Sadly I got dad's brown eyes. She tilted her head. "Whats wrong Danny?"

My dad swings the bathroom door open. He looked like a big mess. His hair stuck out in every direction. He leaned against the threshold as he says " Danny are you ready?" 

"Yep" I answer

My dad turns around and heads back into the bathroom. "We should stop calling you Danny and call you by your real name, Daniel"

Mum and I looked at each other and laughed. 

"Dear, everyone calls him Danny. You sure you want to change that?" Mum states

I nod in reply " Dad, I like to be called both, but Mum is right."

"I was just thinking"

(Back to Present)

Uncle turned to me and say "Wait, didn't I see you at church today?"

I nod "Yes sir"

"Danny it nice to officially meet you. You guys want to come in?" My uncle states

He starts turns to open the door, but turns around to say "Oh and the girls have friends over" He turns back to open the door revealing a lot of girls dancing and singing Frozen. Uh-uh Seth was also there. He was smiling as he watched the girls. GREAT

I look at my dad. Okay, so I haven't actually told my dad everything that happened this morning. Seth happens to look up. We locked eyes. He looked confused then one of the little girls jumped on him. He turned to her and laugh.

Izzy's POV:

The girls and I were dancing and singing to Frozen. Abby and Seth were being party poopers watching from the couch. I slowed to stop when I noticed we had an audience. Mr. R had back came in with 2 other guys.

Mr. R came in and paused the movie. We all turned to him and groaned....well except Seth who was more than happy.

"Time for dinner" He starts "We also have guest"

All us girls stomped to the kitchen. Why? We were in the middle of singing "Let It Go". You can not stop in the middle of LET IT GO!!!!! Though Seth seemed relieved. He had a huge smirk on his face. I walk over to him and elbow him in the ribs. I whisper in his ear "So this is Danny?" 

Seth nods slowly   

"He doesn't seem that bad" I sigh

"Yeah don't talk to him" Seth simply replies

"Really, the protective brother act? Well I don't have to listen to you" I yell whisper

Abby looks at us with a "What are you fighting about?" look. I give an innocent angel smile look

Mr. R starts handing out plates with pizza.  

We all sat down to eat. We all turned to Mr.R as we waited for him to pray. He leads with the girls

"Thank you, Jesus for this food. Please bless and sanctify it. In Jesus name Amen."

"Okay, girls.....Seth, this is my brother, Bob, and his son, Danny. "

All of us did a chorus of hellos. 

Seth starts " So what brings you guys to the small town of Hope Valley?"

Bob looks at Seth "Um...Well, Jesus opened a door to visit you guys and we took it.....I guess. Its like a break from the mission field. Oh and sorry Rachelle couldn't make it tonight" He turns to his brother. I'm guessing this Rachelle is his wife.

"Well, we have two announcements." Mr. R looked at Bob 

Bob starts "Well number one is......." He pauses for effect "Danny and  Abby open these" He hands them each a yellow envelope. They open them to find school pamphlets for John Adam High. Yep Abby was going to join me, Holly, and Seth for school. Abby and Danny look up with confused looks. "You will be going to John Adams High!!!!" I hold up the backpack I helped Mr.R  pick out for Abby. "Yep and this for Abby" I say

Abby smiled as she grabbed it.

Mr. R turned to Seth. "The next thing is that...Well, a lot of people have been leaving the youth group. So we need to fill some positions in the Worship team. I have some people in mind. Seth, I want you to be there with me tomorrow to pick people. You and Holly..." 

Seth had a huge smile. Seth was crazy about guitar and being on the worship team. He loved music in general. He was AWESOME at doing indie covers.
