A Different Type of Family

Mama Love

Callie Elizabeth Adams Foster eyed all her big brother's as they heard her thoughts. "Well?" she asked. The boys' stayed quiet as they pondered what she told them. She sighed and waited until they said something. 

"It is a great idea," Ty added first. "What should we do?"

"How about a spa?" Caleb asked. All eyes turned to him in shock. "Her and mom would go on spa days," he added. "Remember?"

"That's a great idea," Callie added. "What else?"

"Opera," the older twins added. "She likes that."

"Maybe we should find a nice spa she hasn't been too," the middle twins added. 

"And find a spa where they have Opera near by," AJ added. The others nodded.

"Maybe we should ask grams?" the younger twins asked. "She pretty much has been to a lot of spas in her days."

"Good," Callie added. "Well I got $500."

"Food," Callum added. "She'll need food."

"It's settled," Callie added. All the eleven kids nodded.

The boys' put in money and it came out to be $3,000. Callie was elated as she put the money in her secret spot. "Babies I'm home," Lena screamed out. All the kids ran to their spots and put a game out. 

"Family room," Callie replied as Lena walked in. "Hi mama. How was the board meeting?"

"Boring. How was here?" she asked.

"Good," they all added together at the same time. Lena furrowed her brows as she eyed them and they all smiled. It smelled fishy as she eyed them.

"Well I need to take a shower," she added as she continued to eye them as she backed out the room. "That was close," Callie added as the door bell was heard. Max went to answer it and Lexi walked in.

"Hi sugar lips," Lexi added as she eyed Callie in a teasing voice.

"Sugar lips?" Caleb asked. "How did you come up with that?"

"Well I kissed Callie and she had just eaten a sugary donut. The name stuck," Lexi replied.

"I like it. Sugar Lips Adams Foster," Caleb joked. Callie threw a pillow at him as it hit him in the face. "HEY!" he added fake hurt. "You hurt my face, sugar lips!"

"PILLOW FIGHT!" Matthew screamed out as all the kids started to throw the pillows left and right. The pillow fight continued as Lena came downstairs and heard the commotion and came into the family room. Her mouth hung open as pillows were all over the place. She sighed and eyed her teens and counted to ten.

"FREEZE!" Lena added in her authority voice that the kids knew all too well. They all froze mid-stride and eyed  their mama who looked a tad bit upset. Lena sighed. The kids did not move and Lena smiled.

"UNFREEZE!" she added. All the kids started to move. "What is going on?"

"Sugar lips here threw a pillow at me," Caleb added. Callie glared at him.

"Then Matthew screamed PILLOW FIGHT," Callie added.

"Sugar lips?" Lena asked as she eyed her daughter's look.

"It is Lexi's fault," Max added.

"My fault?" Lexi asked. "You eleven are at fault. You are such babies," she added. "God I do hope our children don't come out like this," she told Callie. 

"Kids huh?" Callie asked. Lexi nodded.

"I want twelve,"Lexi added. 

"Cheaper by the dozen," Caleb added.
