I'm sitting on the bed,putting on a dress.the sun is already high..I turn to Shannon..she's laying..her eyes are open..i smile..she smiles back  "are you going to bathe me?"  "yes but i need your mom's help"  "mmm..no..i was thinking of something else"  "Shannon..how should i do?i have this huge bump"  "come on,babe..we need some time alone..i want to feel you close to me"  i sigh  "okay,we'll try". "girls?"  Deb is knocking on the door.i get up and open..she gets in  "how do you feel,baby?"  "better..i missed sleeping with my wife"  "of course.what about you and my grandson?"  "we're fine"  "okay,girls.Jim made breakfast..are you coming downstairs?"  "sure.i was going to call someone to help me with your daughter"  "oh,i'm right here". "mom,babe..my legs work..i don't need any help..."  Shannon says, sitting on the bed  "oh...i feel nauseous"  i sigh,reaching her  "you hit your head..here..lean on me".

finally,we reach the open space.i smile,seeing the big breakfast on the table. "here are my girls"  Jim opens his arms,coming to kiss us. "how did you sleep,little June?"  the baby smiles  "oh,that tooth is really pretty". my wife smiles  "she looks like a rabbit"  "Shannon"  "a beautiful rabbit,baby".

we sit around the table and start eating. "how's it going with the pregnancy?"  Vanessa asks me  "the little prince is giving me a good pregnancy.i don't have any nausea and i'm calmer"  "this is because you're not working"  Shannon says  "maybe..who knows?"  "nah.it's because she's carrying a boy" Casey replies  "do you believe in those stuff?"  i ask my sister-in-law.she just shrugs...my wife kisses me  "we should have another girl to find out if it's true"  "oh,sweet jesus..leave that poor girl alone"  Deb answers for me.i touch her shoulder  "thank you.your daughter wants to start a soccer team"  "but,babe..we have to fill this house..we bought it on purpose"  "it's not made for eleven kids,Shannon"  she smiles  "alright,baby.we can stop at...five"  i raise my eyebrows  "you're gonna get crazy when Gary will be born and June will start walking".

we're greeting Vanessa,Jim and Casey. "take care of my sister"  "don't worry,i will"  "and take care of my nephew"  my sister-in-law leans down to kiss the bump.then,Jim hugs me  "i will miss you so much..mostly,this little angel"  he grabs June's hand,making the little girl smile. "she's gonna have all her teeth,next time,dad"  Shannon jokes  "she's beautiful with or without teeth"  he tells.then,it's Vanessa's turn..she looks into my eyes  "i can't wait to see my nephew"  Shannon puts her hand on my bump,leaning on me from behind  "we're gonna wait for you".

we close the door..i turn around to walk and i notice tears on my wife's face  "babe.."  "it's nothing..i already miss them"  i smile,kissing her  "let's take a bath"  "do you want me to help you?"  Deb offers  "no"  we reply in unison..she raises her hands  "okay,okay..cuddle time.come on,June..your moms want to spend some time alone"  "actually...i was thinking.."  Shannon starts..i pull away from her,turning around  "baby...i'm pregnant and you can't move..how should i bathe the three of us?"  she pouts,making me sigh  "fine".

i'm holding my daughter who's naked and is whining  "i know,baby..mom wants to have a family moment". i take a deep breath  "how should i undress you?"  i ask,standing in front of my woman  "with one hand"  "you really hit your head,huh?"  she smiles widely while i start removing her sweatpants.then,she helps me with her right arm to take off her shirt,too.when it comes to the dress i'm wearing,the situation becomes more complicated.i raise it with one hand..Shannon helps me and finally,five minutes later we're naked..the bathtub is already filled.Shannon gets in,whining a little..i give her my hand to help her getting comfortable.i turn around to sit in front of her  "wait..where are you going?"  she stops me  "i don't wanna hurt you"  "you're going to hurt me if you'll sit there"  i chuckle,placing myself between her legs.i put June between mine...she starts playing with the water.we laugh  "she loves it.maybe we should sign her for swimming classes"  i tell,looking proudly at my little angel  "it's too soon..she'll figure out what she wants to do"  "of course". Shannon places her head upon my shoulder,surrounding me with her arm  "i'm so happy"  "you're out of your mind..you literally came back from death"  i reply,touching June's hair,getting it wet. "exactly for this...i'm living..like,really living.i have everything"  i kiss her hand  "i don't want you to leave this house..ever.i still think it was my fault"  "babe...it wasn't.."  i shrug..i feel tears coming to my eyes  "i don't care..i'm gonna use all my ways to convince you.you're gonna stay home"  she laughs and places a kiss on my cheek  "you're gonna get tired of me"  "this is not going to happen". she holds me tighter and i grab June  "what do you think,baby?we're gonna let her go out?"  "she's a nugget..come here"  i turn on the side to let June sit on our legs.the baby touches the scratches on Shannon's hands  "awww..are you my doctor?are you gonna cure me?"  "she's so sweet..". i caress Shannon's face and the scratches on her body,pouting  "Cari,stop.it was an accident"  i shake my head,crying  "you're always there to give me everything i want and i sent you..to...the hospital"  she starts kissing my cheeks and my neck  "stop,baby..i would have done the same thing,going back in time"  i grab her hair  "no.i will take care of you.i'm gonna be a perfect wife,i promise"  she grabs my chin,placing a kiss on my lips  "you already are,baby girl"  "it's not true"  i reply,pouting  "awww..come here,the three of you..i love you so much.you're my life and i'm happy"  she kisses June and then the bump  "come soon...you're getting mommy so emotional"  "Shannon.."  she plants a big kiss on my cheek,playing with my bottom lip afterwards.i smile  "are you done?"  "no..i'm playing with my babies".
