May 2032
Kimberly ❤️
I don't know where to begin. So much has happened in the last two years. Jordan just turned 12 in January and Elijah just turned 11 last month. May-June are the free months before the chaos. February-March as well.
In order from oldest to youngest, I'm gonna give you the rundown of what's been going on.
The twins just finished their Freshman year of High School. They start their Sophomore year in August. They're both going to tryout for the Varsity team instead of JV. They like to roll with the big dogs. They'll be 16 in December.
My babies 😩.
My baby girl Nicole is in training for the 2036 Summer Olympics. She's been doing really good at Nationals and Regionals. She's won Gold in the Women's Gymnastics All-Around like the beast she is. I can't tell you the countless amount of medals she's won in the last two years. And she's only 13; she'll be 14 in September.
Jordan plays football for an outside league because he wants to wait until High School to be on a real team. I guess I don't blame him though. I'm thinking of sending him to a Prep School for those 4 years.
Elijah is kicking butt on the soccer field; he's currently leading his team in goals. I'm thinking of sending him to Prep School as well when he reaches High School. It looks like this is what he wants to do. And I'm going to make sure he does it.
And my baby girl Cameron, she's 4 going on 40. I'm telling you, she is the sassiest of them all. I shouldn't have expected less being that I'm as petty as ever. She just happened to pick up on my side of the genes more than Dak. She's currently working on her Equestrian skills because she loves Horses. She'll be 5 in September, and probably competing in obstacles by age 10.
Work it girl!
As for Jeremiah, not a day goes by where I don't think about him. It's been 4 years, but I miss him entirely too much. He would be here with us right now, rooting on the Golden State Warriors even though the Houston Rockets are better (don't tell Dak I said this).
Every now and then I find myself in one of those moods where I don't want to do anything. Dak and the kids notice and they do their best not to bother me. It's very unfortunate that his death anniversary is literally the day after Cameron's birthday.
Jeremiah would've been 10 this upcoming October.
What I would do to have one more day with him.

I feel Dak's arms wrap around me as I wash the dishes from this afternoon. The kids had just finished their lunch and are now outside in the pool enjoying the start of summer break because school is over.
I can't wait until they go back.
A kiss was left at the back of my head, along with a deep exhale. Once I finish, I dry my hands and turn to face him. I wrap my arms around his waist, burying my face against his chest. He leaves a kiss at the top of my head, now rubbing my back.
"What brings you this way?" I ask.
"Just wanted to keep you some company. You looked like you could use some." He replied.
I grin, looking up at him.
"Thanks." I say.
"No problem." He said.
He leans down to kiss my lips.
"Something is bothering you." He said, pulling away shortly after.
