"Eh? What was that? It sounded like it came from the kid's room!" I said rushing to the kid's room, never noticing the glowing light.
{~}~~~{~} Saturday Morning
I awoke with a start, my heart racing. I turned and saw John sleeping on the air mattress, because Cody was sharing the bed with me. We had decided on having an weekend sleep over so everyone can get to know everybody. Elle claimed the guest room she uses a lot, and Zack and Raven had the living room. Though we had many guest rooms, John said everyone who was not part of this family had to have a room buddy and none of the guest rooms have multiple beds. It was decided that Cody should sleep with family.
After waking up after a strange dream I had, I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. As I stepped in the living room I almost squealed. Raven had chosen the floor, something about needing to pop his back, and Zack had fallen asleep sitting up. Raven had started to cuddle Zack's leg.
"That. Is. So. CUTE!" I thought.
I tiptoed back to my bedroom and grabbed my phone. When I got back, thankfully, they were still in the same position. I almost crackled as I took the pictures. Then I continued on my quest for water.

Liz heard my slinking around and had decided that it was late enough to wake up. I guess because it was a Saturday everyone had decided to sleep in. I walked into the living room and saw that Zack and Raven had woken up. Robbie and Elle were talking about having everyone stay the night. Something about an meeting. Well I might as well get to know their friends, me and Eliza were getting worried because they didn't seem to have any.
"Mother, the Satsouris are back in town. The last time we saw them was five years ago." Robbie said.
The Satsouris were the ones to get the voice synthesizer company John made. John's work is basically making companies and selling them and getting a share of the yearly profit. With ten companies, it unlikely we'll ever go in debt.

"Hush my children, hush my lovelies. It's almost midnight, please go to sleep." I sang trying to get my twins to sleep. Not knowing this would be the last time I would see one.

I was running in the hall way when I stopped and looked around.
"Eh? What am I doing? I should go back to bed." I said softly, only remembering one child.
