Broken Feather - Baby 21

The day before Christmas was hectic in our house. Kim was carrying Nashira everywhere and wouldn't put the poor cat down. I was trying to get the food together, the tree sorted and the presents put out for the entire family and friends that were coming down.

Bedtime rolled around pretty fast though and the kids eventually went to sleep. I smiled, relaxed and went to bed myself.

The next day was Christmas Day and the kids were all eager beavers and ran to the tree to open their presents. We spent the day with various family members and close friends and everybody had a fantastic time. I was ecstatic that my mama had decided to spend Christmas with us, she was talking about going to see the rest of the family in Bridgeport for New Years but wasn't sure if she should because of all that had happened to her. Her scar was healing up lots and she was booked in for some cosmetic surgery soon to get rid of it completely which she was happy about. I loved seeing her so happy, especially after she'd been ripped from our family so dramatically. 

We all ate together that evening, knowing the kids would all grow up the next day and some would be moving out to start their own lives. 

At around 10pm there was a knock on the door and I opened it wondering who it was. I was greeted by a big kiss from Bradly Turner. 

And seconds after that... he asked me to be his girlfriend. I didn't know whether that was against the rules or not but I really didn't care, I was hopelessly in love with this man and nothing was going to stop me from being with him. He stayed round our house and at midnight, kissed me underneath the mistletoe.

"Merry Christmas beautiful."

We spent the night together, making snowmen outside till the kids woke up. 

Bradly was fine for me to go and get pregnant with my next baby, and even though I wished it could be his baby again, I agreed and went out with someone who had been ringing me for a while. He asked me to meet him and when I pulled up, nothing was there apart from snow. He got to making a snowman and I decided to make an igloo. 

We decided to get started on the baby right there and then and he abandoned his snowman and we woo-hooed in the igloo. 

As I was leaving, I saw him in his underwear carrying on with the snowman. I vowed that I would not see him again as he creeped me out.

The kids grew up beautifully...

Wednesday got the Great Kisser trait.

Pugsley became a dog person and he and Gomez took Tamsie to live with them.

Gomez was a mooch.

Kim grew up to have the good trait but also became very self-centered and reliant on makeup. She was determined to be the most popular girl in school, but had to fight the position from her twin Meg, who was prettier than she was and nicer too. 

Meg got the Flirty trait but didn't abuse it. She was beautiful and so friendly and this upset Kim a little bit. Kim wasn't naturally pretty like her sister and felt the need to be popular. Meg didn't care whether she was popular or not. She highlighted her jet black hair with red and put orange tips on. She had heavy makeup and got called emo by some people (mainly Kim) but it was her style.

Alfie shaved his hair off for charity and had the snob, friendly and excitable trait. 

Over the next few days, my baby bump grew fast. 

Wednesday got herself a boyfriend, Joel Forsythe and the two were now expecting a baby.

One day, I got back home from taking Alfie to parents evening and I noticed immediately something was wrong. I ran as fast as I could to the bedroom and my heart broke in two. Bradly was gone. I got there just as the last puff of smoke disappeared. I didn't know what to do apart from fall to the floor beside his urn and  sob my heart out. 

I was ready to pop and missing Bradly so so much. I was determined to make Ambrosia and resurrect him but I needed all the ingredients first. I was so scared it wouldn't work. I needed the love of my life back. Then one evening as I finished reading Alfie to bed, a voice said my name. Softly at first and then louder. I turned around and couldn't believe my eyes. Bradly was standing, or rather floating on the other side of the room. We stood there for the longest time and just spoke to each other until he went in the morning and I cried myself to sleep.

In the morning, my baby boy Caiven was born.

Welcome to the World

Caiven Moon

- loves the cold

- heavy sleeper

As I stared at the Christmas Tree ready to take it down, I wasn't sure if this was the best or worst Christmas ever. I knew one thing for certain. I was determined to get my Bradly back...

[ Thanks for reading. I am so sorry that it took me so long to get this post out. As you may or may not know, I had trouble with my game and somehow got it working again so there should be more regular posts again now. I'm trying to catch up to where I am now, rather than skip lots like Christmas etc. ]
