Prologue: home free
The next day Shaeleigh came home, but they didn't let her sleep in that room. before any of their children sleep in that bedroom until they made changes to make the room safer. They got Bullet proof windows that were tinted, so nobody could see into the room. They'd also put an Alarm outside of the window so they'd know if anyone was coming near their precious babies.In the weeks following they'd stayed completely safe.

Chapter one: Wedding plans
Zabrina's vows:
I take you to be my partner for life I promise above all else to live in truth with you And to communicate fully and fearlessly I give you my hand and my heart As a sanctuary of warmth and peace And pledge my love, devotion, faith and honor As I join my life to yours.
Carter's vows:
In your eyes, I have found my home. In your heart, I have found my love. In your soul, I have found my mate.With you, I am whole, full, alive.You make me laugh. You let me cry. You are my breath, my every heartbeat. I am yours. You are mine. Of this we are certain. You are lodged in my heart. The small key is lost. You must stay there forever.
Zabrina's parents' speech: Your presence shows your friendship and love... It also brings even greater joy to this wonderful day! We hope you all have a fabulous time tonight...
What a fantastic setting for a wedding and celebration and what a beautiful ceremony it was... Zabrina told us that she dreamed of having her wedding at this venue for years...We were all just waiting for Carter to pop the question...

Carter's mom's speech: As a mother, you’ll always experience the path of your children, from their early stages of development and up to the later years of their life, you’ll be there to watch them grow and fly away from the nest that you’ve been providing for them. When one of your children enters into the gates of marriage, all things begin to prosper and change. I'm honored to say that I got to watch Carter prosper and grow, and another great thing i've seen is i've witnissed Zabrina grow up as well and it's not everyday that you marry your chidlhood best firend and I'm so very proud of you two for making it this far and we all love and support you guys.
Chapter 2: Honeymoon
For their honeymooon they'd decided to stay home with the kids and give their parents a vacation to Hawaii.They were just relieved to have a little time for just their small family of six. They just needed some time to relax and get over everything that had happened in the last year.
First Zabrina got pregnant, then she found out it was triplets,and then she found out it was quadruplets, then Carter was going to leave for the army but he didn't, and then a week after the babies were born Shaeleigh was kidnapped and beaten and almost died. Overall the last year had been very tough but they got through it.
Zabrina got a call around noon and heard some horrible news, and the bad thing was that it was her sixteenth birthday.She found out that rayn died last night in an extremely bad car accident. Zabrina cried all day and at Rayn's funeral Zabrina and her babies cried and cried, but the babies were crying because they were babies.Zabrina was crushed and thank God she had Carter there for her.
Chapter 3: Depression
Zabrina went into depression. She began wishing it was her instead of Rayn. Carter began to worry about her and her mental being. He asked her to go to counseling, but she said she didn't need help and that she was fine. Zabrina was definately hiding something, but Carter didn't know what it was.
A month later Zabrina told everyone why she was being so weird. Zabrina was already four months pregnant with her fifth child, and she was only sixteen years old. She decided that she was going to name her baby after Rayn if it was a boy or a girl.
Another thing everyone else found out was that Rayn was one month pregnant when she died. Rayn made Zabrina promise not to tell because she was going to tell everyone on Zabrina's birthday, but she'd died the night before.
Chapter 4: Healing in time
Zabrina started getting better because she wanted her baby to be just like Rayn. She wanted Rayn's happy, beautiful, and perfect soul and memory to live on in everyone's minds and hearts. They'd found out that Zabrina was having another girl, and they were naming her Rayney Rose Roberts. Carter was so happy to have his happy wife back. Everybody missed Rayn, and she lived in their memories and in their hearts.
Being six months pregnant with your fifth child when you're sixteen is hard for her but she keepd her head up. She does it for Rayn and Rayney. Zabrina had to trade in her truck for a mini van so they'd be able to fit their family all in one vehicle. Now that they would be a family of seven they'd need plenty of help, so Zabrina's sister, Taylya, moved in to help out.
Then another tradgedy struck. Carter was needed in New Jersey because his father was very ill and could possibly die. So Carter left and would be gone for about a mont so when he got back she'd be seven months. A week later they found out that his dad was perfectly fine but he just wanted Carter down there.
Now that Zeke, Carter's dad, knew about the kids he wanted to come meet them , but he decided to wait three months until Rayney was born, and that meant that Carter was staying there for three more months. That meant that he could miss Rayney's birth, and all of the kids birthday. Rayney was due on November 11, which was the same due date that she had when she was pregnant with the quadruplets. So there was a huge possibility that all five of there kids would have the same birthday. They'd have to get six presents in November, including her own. Carter,s birthday was December first.
