Sitting here with the two of them in front of me anxiously awaiting what I have to say is pressure.
First of all they are four years old and probably won't even understand what I'm talking about. Secondly, I'm a guy. I don't know how to explain to my toddlers that their mommy is having another baby.
I don't even wanna think about the questions they're gonna have.
"What's going on here?" My grandma asks
I sigh looking from them to her with a knowing look. She laughs and walks away
No help at all
"Daddy?" Vannah calls
"Hmm?"
"Why is mommy always sleepy?" She asks
I see mom's eyes bug out and I look to her for help but she just walks away
Great grandma skills Katherine!
"Um, well, see"
"Justin?"
Oh thank god!
"Babe!" I grin "Come sit and help me"
"With what?" She asks
"Mommy?" Nathan says
"Yes love?"
"Why are you always tired?" He asks
Her eyes widen for a second then go back to normal
"Well, when you're doing a lot of work all the time you get tired" She starts
"Like when we play?" Vannah asks
"Yes baby but mommy's doing a different kind of work" She says
They both look at her confused making her sigh. She comes in and sits next to me then rummages through her bag.
"Here" She says passing them something
Once I catch a glimpse of the black and gray I know what it is and smile

"What's dis?" V asks
"That, is the work mommy's doing"
"Takin pictures?" Nate asks confused
"No, growing a baby" She says
He nods and V looks at her
"Like us?"
I laugh and nod "Yeah, like you guys. You both started out like this"
"In you tummy?" Nate smiles
"No baby, you were in your mommy's tummy and Vannah was in mine" Ly explains
