I ignored Louis's question hoping he would see his toys and forget about it but he didn't. I told him mommy was in bed. And she wasn't feeling well. I mumbled under my breathe and said "I really need to think of something else to say. Seems like I'm always telling Louis mommys sick"

I picked up Louis and took him upstairs into our room. Hoping Louis would cheer Sandy up. Louis squirmed out of my arms and crawled up to sandy wrapping his hands around her whispering "I love you mommy" Sandy rolls over with a smile on her face despite her swollen eyes and puffy face. Louis asked "mama, have you been crying" Sandy shook her head yes. She began telling Louis. She said "honey, your brother or sister died in mommys tummy. Your sibling is going to be in a better place now okay?" Louis questioned "heaven mommy" she held him closely and said "yes baby, heaven"

I'm not sure if Louis completely understood but he didn't seem too upset. He just kissed Sandy's belly and said "you in a better place" and ran off to his room. I crawled over to Sandy and said "at least he took that well" she shook her head yes and said "can we do something? Like go to dinner. I want to forget about this for right now and enjoy my two men." I smiled and ran my hand gently over Sandy's face gently and smirked "I'm your man?" I questioned. She giggled and said "yes baby, your my man"

Sandy went Into the bathroom and splashed cold water on her face hoping the swelling would go down. She put some concealer under her eyes and put a little bit of mascara on and changed her shirt. I walked into Louis's room and said "hey little man, wanna go get some dinner" he said loudly with excitement "YES. I want chicky nuggets and fries" I laughed and said okay, let's go.

As Sandy Louis and I were walking into the restaurant paparazzi were surrounded. One said "Sandy, what's it like being pregnant at 50" I glared and tried to contain myself. I knew Sandy was upset about it so I grabbed her hand and pulled her close to me whispering in her ear "just ignore them baby"

We walked into the restaurant and said "party of 3" the server said okay right this way. We got seated and ordered our drinks and food. As we were waiting Louis was coloring on his kids menu. He drew a picture of Sandy, myself him and a baby. He said "mama, daddy look. It's my family" I looked over at Sandy and she put her head down and moved her straw around in her drink trying not to cry. I put my hand on her leg and said to Louis "yes, I see"

On our way back home Sandy fell asleep in the car and so did Louis. I carried Louis inside and put him into bed. Then I went back outside to wake Sandy up but she looked too perfectly just sitting there sleeping so I picked her up bridal style and carried her up to bed. When I picked her up she was startled but relaxed once she realized what I was doing. She looked up at me with those beautiful brown eyes and I felt like I had fallen in love with her all over again. Sandy was the love of my life and that would never ever change.
