October 16th 2002Today was the twins' first birthday.They have grown up quite nicely .Both kids have very sharp minds and understand things quickly.Izzy,quite the charmer,loves female attention. He hangs a lot more with his mom or any other female.He walks now and says one word sentences.He can read facial expressions very well and is very sensitive to any emotion.Izzy is definitely a mama's boy.His parents have explained her pregnancy to the twins,and anytime he sees his mom lay down on the couch,he caresses her face and asks 'sick?' Or he would gently place his hand on her belly and say 'baby?'.Prince and Angelica find that so adorable.The only way Prince could get him away from those women is when he played guitar or piano.Izzy would listen intently and have attention only for Prince.He would try to sing along too,which makes Prince very proud.Mimi also walks and speaks a bit more fluently than her brother.She has become quite the nurturer .She definitely is daddy's girl and when he wasn't feeling well,she would bring him water to feel better.If he was in pain she would cry and Prince had to console her.She would want to see her mom's belly every morning ,and kiss it.Occasionally she would say 'love you baby' and Angelica would tear up.Izzy has an incredible sweet tooth and loves chocolate.Mimi on the other hand,doesn't like chocolate and prefers fruit and eats no meat at all.She loves cartoons and always giggles while watching their antics
.
Angelica was so excited ,she got up early to make breakfast for the twins.She decided to make muffins and hot chocolate. Knowing she and her daughter weren't big chocolate consumers, she made egg muffins and chocolate ,chocolate chip muffins for her men.Her belly hurt a little but she knew it was just growing pains,and with her having had a C-section,the pain kind of intensified. She rubbed her belly and continued making the muffins.While she was making the muffins ,Prince joined her in tje kitchen .He stood behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist,gently stroking her belly .She smiled and kissed his lips.
"Hmm...yum...good morning mama,you're up early,"
"Good morning baby,I wanted to make a special breakfast for my babies.I can't believe they're one today.Time flies..."
"Aww....are they growing up too fast Mrs.Nelson?"She got teary eyed.
" Yeah.,.they're so big .Soon they will go off to college and get married...."she sniffled.Prince turned her around.
"Hey....c'mere ...shh...it's okay mama" he held her in a tight embrace and gently swayed her as she cried softly on his chest.He wiped her tears :"Feel better?"
"Yeah ...I guess it's just hormones..."
"No baby,this is a mother's love .You're afraid to lose them.I am too,but we'll be ready when the time comes.For now ,let's enjoy their first birthday and let's not forget our little angel on the way" he said caressing her belly.She leaned on his shoulder for a few seconds before feeling her belly hurt again.She didn't want to tell Prince so she acted normal.She knew he would be worried.At that same moment he held his belly and announced he wanted to sit down.
"Honey ,what's wrong?"
"I don't know why but my belly hurts all of a sudden" he said while groaning in pain.Angelica couldn't believe it.He felt her pain.Literally. She started to get teary eyed and Prince saw it.
"Oh no mama please don't cry?I'll be fine I promise.Just give me a minute...." And he rocked himself back and forth trying to ease the pain.
"Honey my belly hurts too,I just didn't want to worry you so I didn't say anything. I can't believe you can feel my pain"
"This is what you're walking around with?Oh baby I am so sorry for doing this to you.I promise ,we will take a very long break before having another baby okay?" Angelica smiled.
"Okay baby"
"Come on let me help you make breakfast and then we'll take care of that belly pain of yours"
He helped her make breakfast and when they finished Prince rubbed her belly and she felt the pain lessen.They were both famished so they dug in immediately.
