100 Children of the Moon: February 2014

Being with Bradly felt completely normal. It was like being at the start of a school relationship. He would come up behind me and hold my waist, he would be there when I turned around and would take my hands and he would pull me into hugs, exclaiming how happy he was to have me.

After work one day, he surprised me in the back garden with some beautiful red roses and we hopped in the shower together. We were living some sort of perfect life, with our two children. Two seemed like a strange amount to me now, but at the same time it was perfect. Colm and Sasha were well-behaved and we loved them.

One thing I was uncertain about was what to do about my challenge. I loved Bradly with all my heart and couldn't cheat on him, but I had sworn to do this challenge till 100. He led me by the hand outside and we sat in the snow, watching the stars up above.

"Look, that star there is called Jayda. She shines the brightest in the sky."

I had to laugh. He was just so sweet and funny.

"Oh ha ha, and look that one there, do you see it. It's called Big Pillock."

He had an amazing laugh, it could almost take my mind off my worries. I wasn't sure what to do. Things were going so well between us, and I soon fell pregnant again. I was 100% sure this child was Bradly's and I yearned to meet the child, but at the same time was worried. Did this mean I had broken the rules? Each child had to be with a different man, unless they were multiples. This would be my 6th child with Bradly now.

Leaving Bradly to do work, I headed outside with Sasha. While she bounced on the trampoline, I practiced my mixology skill.

I'd stopped for a minute to watch Sasha do some tricks on the trampoline when I felt the familiar sensation of my waters breaking. Sasha ran over, not really sure how to help.
