(Gracie's POV...............)

"Mommy!" I heard Marko, Masen, and Mea call out as they saw me walk into there pre-school. I opened my arms as all three of them ran in me. "How was y'all's day at school?" I asked as we started to walk to the car while I held onto all three of their hands. "It was fun, I made you a flower mommy," Mea said as she reached into her pocket to fetch a crumbled paper flower to show me. "Oh wow honey, it's so beautiful. I'll make sure to cherish it forever" I said as I put them into their car seat and gave her a big smile.

"Flowers are so lame, you should have made her a car," Marko said as Mea put a frown on her face. "Marko, stop picking on your little sister. I think the flower is very special" I said as I gave Mea another smile and a kiss on her cheek.

I closed the back door and got into the driver seat. "Are y'all ready to go pick up daddy?" I asked as they all said yes at once. I put on my seatbelt and began driving across town. We soon arrived at my husband's job. I called him to let him know that we are here to pick him up. As soon as the kids saw Qin, they yelled out "Daddy!".

Qin got into the car spoke to them "Hello, my angles. And hello to you," he said looking at me and giving me a passionate kiss that lasted longer than 10 seconds. "Ewww, Mommy, daddy, that's nasty," I heard Marko say as me and Qin looked back at him then laughed. "Masen, sweety, you have been awfully quiet. Is everything okay?" I asked as me and Qin looked back at him. "Ya, I'm fine mommy. I'm just tired," he responded as looked out the window.

Masen is the middle child and the quietest one. It does concern me because kids his age are not normally this quiet. Marko is the oldest and the kid who always hyper, but never causes any trouble. Mea is a combination of Marko and Masen. She sands right there in the middle of them, so she the glue that keeps everyone together. We enrolled them in school this early because we want them to have a headstart with academics.

"Did y'all two take care of your, little sister, today?"Qin asked Marko and Masen. "Yes sir, we did!" they responded at the same time. "How about this. Y'all finish your homework when we get home, and then y'all can have 2 hours of t.v. before bed. Sounds good?" I said while still looking at them. They all screamed yes before I really finished my sentence. Me and Qin then turned around and I began driving us home.

We soon arrived home and the triplets unbuckled themselves and rushed up to the porch so they can get in and get their homework done. "Did I thank you for picking me up?" Qin asked as he leaned in for a kiss. I leaned over so our lips can connect. It started to get a little more heated between us with the kiss, but that was interrupted when we heard the kids arguing over what show they are going to watch. Qin and I looked at each other and laughed before walking up to the porch.

"And they all lived happily ever after. The End," I said as I finished up a fairy tale story for Marko and Masen. Masen was already sound asleep as Marko was fully awake. "Now it's time for you to get some sleep Marko," I said as I rubbed my hand through his little afro. "But mommy, I'm not tired," he said crossing his arms.

"How about this, you can stay up reading as many books you want until you get tired," I said trying to bargain with him. Come to find out, Marko loves to read. "Ok, that works for me," he said with a smile as I gave him a kiss on his forehead before turning on his night light and walking out the door.

I peeked into Mea's room to find that she was sound asleep in her room. I looked at her with a smile before walking out of the room and down the hall to my room where Qin was watching a movie. "The kids are down?" he asked while looking up at me. "Yep," I responded before laying down next to him. "Can you believe it's been three years already?" I said looking up at him as I laid on his chest and he wrapped his arms around me.

"We came so far, Gracie," he said while giving me a kiss on my forehead. "I love you," he said. I took in a deep breath before closing my eyes to try and get some sleep.

"I love you too, Qin,"
