It’s Mason’s birthday. So when I wake up to change him early in the morning, I figure it’s an excellent time to help him age up (with the Inquisitive aspiration). It’s hard to believe that our baby is already a toddler. Without bothering to wake Me-Me, I give him a…

It’s Dub’s birthday. So Me-Me wakes up early to dress him and Mason while ma prepares cakes and pies for Dub’s birthday party. Meanwhile, I complete a few tasks on the farm, then join ma in the kitchen for breakfast. Kai: I can’t believe Dub is already about to be…
I wake up confused and dazed when I hear Me-Me groaning early in the morning. It takes me a minute to realize what’s happening. The baby is coming! I hurry over and pull her into my arms. Kai: Are you okay? Is it time to push? Melisa: Not yet. My…

Our strategy worked. Me-Me finds me downstairs several hours later, as I’m finishing up my homework for school, to tell me that she’s in labor. At first, I don’t hear her because my head is full of Biomes and everything I need to know for today’s final exam. But, eventually,…

Merit holds his newborn daughter, Tessa Blu-Banks, in his arms and watches as she hungrily devours her nighttime bottle. She’s the best thing that has happened to him, but even his love for her doesn’t erase the troublesome thoughts he’s been having lately. Although he prefers not to entertain them,…
