I woke up and it was 1hr before the kids had to get up for school so I went down to make breakfast and to make there lunch. At 6am I went up to wake the kids up. Tomorrow was there birthday and they were turning 7 tomorrow. But there baby sister and 3 brothers there birthday was 2 months from now. I had triplets this time even though they were not your children you still accepted them into the family. You treated them just as they were your own which I was happy about. At first I wanted to put them up for adoption until I thought about how I would feel if I was put up for adoption and I stopped myself. There names are Sapphire, Jose, Xavier, Alejandro. Luis helped pick out the names so that is why all the names are in Spanish. He always told me after I had the twins Voy a nombrar a los que están después de los gemelos. I had knew what he said because since I was in 5th grade I always tried to learn Spanish. When I got into 7th grade I started taking Spanish classes I took them all the way up into high school and as I was learning in high school Luis helped me communicate in Spanish better. So I always responded back to him Sí, Luis lo sé, no tienes que seguir contándome. Then we would both sit back and laugh as we looked at your face. I had always told you to learn Spanish since the day i started speaking it in front if you. Even Luis tried to get you to learn it but you never wanted to so we gave up. So every time we spoke Spanish we laughed when we seen your face. But that was before I stopped talking, well before I lost my voice now I have to write on a piece a paper what I want to say or I use text to speech to communicate. The triplets were still asleep they were only 3 so they started later. You woke up and I took the kids to school. You really couldn't do anything since you had the incident 2 years ago I do most things that don't deal with talking.
