Yes. Definitely AWESOME. Grace was full of smiles and hugs and kisses today. And our house is fully of noise making machinery and other things.
It'll be fine, but we need to get a routine established.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wish the reality had such a nice ending monetarily.
Yeah, me too. It's weird. Shortly after I read up about it, Hec linked to it, and then my sister linked me to it, because my mother (who's in the industry) had just been talking about it during dinner. All probably around the time that ep was being written or filled.
Kat! Toddler girl and little man! How are you going with the night nursing option, Kat?

Oh, Kat! I'm so happy for you and everyone in your family! Yay for kids at home!!!
ita, I'm reading that book right now. I had to take a short break due to homework, but I want to get back to it ASAP and find out the rest of her and her family's story.

Um. We weren't given that option after all. We are the night nurses now.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Oh, dear, Kat. Yes, that will be an adjustment.
Is summer vaca at least soon-ish for you?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Yay having both Noah and Grace at home!
On her next birthday, I can legally toast my own daughter with BOOZE.
Niecelet can legally drink at her birthday this year. Weird. But she's awesome and so is K.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Will she also be married by then?
Her birthday is in March (she shares the date with your twins), she should graduate in May (if the Cal State school system doesn't screw with her more than it already has), and she is looking at July for the wedding. Going to be a wild spring/summer.
I'm all grins at the thought of both Noah and Grace being home. I know it will take adjustment, but it is so cool.

And it ended up OK, she seemed cool, and I think we'll get together again, though there was not magic awesome chemistry, she did turn out to be not just a Joss fan (which I knew from her profile) but a fanfic reader as well.
Hmm... wonder if she's fannishly active locally...
