Roman walks away. Q stands there and chuckles to himself before re-entering the house. Quincy: Sorry about that, ma. I had no idea. You really kicked his ass? Alida: Right on his front porch! Quincy: Damn…see I knew you were tough! I’m kinda proud. Michelle comes over a bit later. After we hug… Michelle: Mama…
It’s 4 in the morning. Q and I are up to give Peri one last bottle…before she ages up to a toddler! Prosperity ages up with the Independent Aspiration. And just like I predicted, she looks just like her daddy. Peri won’t have a bed until Michelle comes over later to work on her room….
Peri wakes up and I pick her up to give mama a good look at her. Lea: She looks a lot like you did as a baby. It brings back so many memories…although that was a very tough time for me. I would love to hear more about that, but before I get a chance…
It’s Egg Day, but we really don’t have any plans to celebrate it. Q leaves for his morning jog and I’m greeted by a smelly diaper and a hungry, fussy little girl. Q gives Peri a quick kiss when he returns from his run, then he joins me at the table. Quincy: Good morning, ma….

It’s 2 in the morning when I’m awakened by an intense pain throughout my mid-section and lower back. At first, I thought it was just a hard kick from the baby, but when it doesn’t let up…I realize that I’m in labor. I climb out of bed… Alida: Ahhhhhhh! *deep breaths* Oh Q…it hurts. Q…
Plumbob Studios 9am… Leinani (makeup artist): *applies makeup and begins working on Michelle’s hair* I just need to apply product and fluff it up in a few places. Michelle: Wait…so I’m not playing a male character? Leinani: Apparently not. There were some last-minute changes. Your character is now a woman honey. Michelle steps out of…
I stand naked in front of the mirror the next morning, not sure whether to feel disgusted or amazed at what I see. I stare at my stretched out belly thinking that none of this is okay…it shouldn’t even be possible. I look like I swallowed a torpedo. It’s definitely self-propelled. I’m just waiting on…
