Nevaeh's POV

I woke up to three little kids bouncing on my bed yelling, "Wake up, wake up, wake up!" and Brody groaning as he turned and looked at the clock. 6:05 in the morning, my left eye popped open not by choice but by a little Harrison seeing if I was waking up or not.

"Momma! You gotta get up! Santa has been here!" Jay's voice rang out high with excitement and he giggled when Brody had turned and grabbed him pulling him down and blew onto his tummy.

I looked over and saw Eli laying on her side about four inches away from my face smiling a grin that could fit the titanic! Harrison was still bouncing and rocking the bed, before I decided it was time for us to go down and see if anyone else is up.

"Good morning my beautiful fiancé, you look absolutely gorgeous this morning!" Brody spoke into my ear as he grabbed my waist and brought me close before kissing the soft part of my neck below my ear.

"Eww! No kissing! You're gonna get cooties daddy!" Jay had tugged Brody's hand as he let go of my waist and was now being pulled in a half walk/ half jog to the elevator when we got out of the room with bouncing kids. As we hit the button to go down, I looked at Eli as she held her hands up for Brody to pick her up and that's just what he did. As we were going down in the elevator the shinny gold like mirror held the perfect picture family of the four of us. With Harrison in the reflection with us it felt like in our little McClain family someone was missing, whether it be a baby girl or boy someone was missing.

"What has you so lost in thought my love?" Brody's deep sexy voice rang out causing me to be back in the present just as the bell dinged telling us that we had reached the bottom.

"Nothing I'll tell you later hun."

I knew then that after I graduate and get married to the man of my dreams we will try and get a baby girl or boy! I smiled till my cheeks hurt. When the doors opened, we all walked into the living room where present were over flowing more than last night. When Madeline said she was going shopping she went crazy! All the adults did!

We separated the gifts into piles surrounding the Christmas tree, in the end everyone was filing down stairs finding their pile and sitting down till each person was sitting down stairs.

The kids went first as Jay and Eli both ripped into theirs while Harrison, Bevelynn, and Blake tore into their gifts.

Bevelynn screeched as she tore open the scarf and white shirt set I had gotten her, and Harrison had smiled at the model train set Brody had gotten him. Blake was in love with the skate board that we both had picked out. Although my attention was mostly on the kids I could feel chills rolling up my spine like the ones I had gotten in that freaky ass teachers room. I looked around and saw nothing out of the ordinary. My eyes traveled back to the kids where Eli had put on the fake tiara and clip on earrings someone had gotten her, while Jayden had smiled at the glitter glue set that Brody had gotten him.

As the kids finished they all ran into the den to play with the toys they had all gotten after saying thank you and hugged us all.

Madeline and Timothy went last as each person opened one. I had four in my pile and Brody and Jonathan had about the same. Audrey had about six two more from her kids that made homemade exchange cards, Carlyle had two, Ashlynn and Jared had gotten two, Daylin had three while Rebecca had two. Brody's cousins Emsley and Hadley both had three.

Brody had gotten some work shirts and an exchange cards from myself and I got a white with blue polka dotted dress, blue heals to match, and a homemade Christmas cards from Eli and Jay.

As each person had opened their gifts smiles were flying around the room and thanks were being said. With everything said and done Madeline made her way to the kitchen to start on breakfast.
