Life Choices, Challenges and Changes

"Rory dear, you jumped off a scaffold?" Amanda asked her.

"Yes, Finn was supposed to jump, but he hurt his ankle, sprained it I think, so I took his place. I jumped in a blue ball gown from a seven-foot scaffold with an umbrella and a wire on my belt around my waist. It was my first LDB event, and I had only met the boys a few times before that."

"Finn, why didn't I know about this?"

"Oh Mum, no worries, it was a long time ago..." Finn then whispered in her ear,

"Tattletale.... now you are going to pay." Finn pulled her into his arms and began to tickle her.

Finn and Rory finally went to bed after their busy day with all the family at their home. Their house was finally quiet, and they were laying in their bed talking about their day.

"So what were you talking about that got everyone laughing today?" he asked her as he stroked her hair.

"I finally told mom about my first LDB event, how I jumped off the seven-foot scaffold and how you hurt your ankle being a target during the paintball shoot," she giggled.

Finn got up on his elbow and leaned over his wife.

"Oh, I remember that conversation now, how you tattled on me. Should I punish you again, as I did four and a half years ago?"

Finn leaned over Rory and began to kiss her neck. He was running his hand on her thigh slowly pulling the nightgown she was wearing over her head. He moved on top of her and was kissing her breast and licking her nipples when they heard a little voice, "Mama, Mama, Dada."

Finn popped his head up to check to see if their door was shut. They heard the pitter patter of Liam's little feet as he started to run toward their bedroom. Finn groaned and rolled off his wife handing her the nightgown she had been wearing before he removed it. Their door swung open when Finn sat up and saw his youngest son.

"Oh no, he didn't!" Finn groaned.

Liam was naked standing beside their bed.

"Mama up?"

Finn knew that when he put Liam to bed, he had dressed him in his pajamas. Rory quickly slipped her nightgown back on and climbed out of their bed. She picked up their son and asked him, "Liam where are your clothes?"

"Off," he told her putting his head on her shoulder and snuggled.

She carried him back to his bedroom and saw his pajamas on the floor with his wet diaper. Finn never changed him out of his pull-up when he put his pajamas on, so Liam wet through everything including his bed. She quickly brought him into the bathroom and sponged him off. She put a nighttime diaper on him, but he refused to put on his pajamas. She brought him back to Finn in their bed so that she could change the bedding on his bed. Finn looked at her as he took his son into his arms.

"With this little guy around we don't need birth control," he pouted. She smirked, "What do you mean, we have Lyn? He didn't stop you then."

"Well yea... but, it reminds me of when I lived with Colin. Whenever he didn't like a Shelia I was dating, he would find a way to interrupt us."

Rory started laughing and kissed him. "Well remember, Colin now has two little ones, and I am sure they are getting interrupted as often as we are."

"If not, I will have to have a talk with Bella," he mumbled.

Rory left the room laughing as she walked back to Liam's room so she could change his bedding. Luckily they learned from Lucas to use a rubber mattress pad so that the mattress wasn't ruined. She dropped the soiled sheets and mattress pad in the tub of the children's bathroom and decided that she would deal with them tomorrow. She went back to Liam's room and put on another rubber mattress pad and clean sheets and blanket. When she was finished, she turned off the light and left the Thomas the Train night light on for him. She walked down the hall to the bedroom that Lucas was in and checked on him. She arranged the blankets around her son and kissed him gently on the forehead. She then went to check on Lyn who was sound asleep.
