The mother she never knew) fighting the battle chapter twenty eight

I'm on my way back to the house
after my morning run. I just needed to clear my head, the doctor hasn't called yet with my blood test results
I'm scared out of my mind. Maybe it's bad news that's why she called me
I feel like something is wrong, l stopped off at the smoothie shop for a strawberry banana smoothie. That seems the only thing I can tolerate
I take my time getting back, l made breakfast for everyone a little early
I've been up since 5 am. I didn't want to wake Stef up with my concerns
So I let sleep, I decided to take a personal day from the center so I could get a few errands taken care of
It's not often l call off work. I love my job, but sometimes it can be a tad overwhelming. I walk into the house
to find Stef sitting in the dining room drinking her morning coffee, hey baby. I said to Stef, hi honey how was your run, she asks me as l take a seat
It was alright. Lena replied, babe what's on your mind because it's written all over your face. She States
I'm worried cause Claire hasn't called me, Lena gets up and begins pacing back and forth. Love maybe she's been busy with other patients, and she hasn't gotten around to calling you. Stef says, sweetie come over here
Your gonna ruined the tile pacing going back and forth. Lena walks over to me, l pulled her on to my lap. She hides her face in my neck. I rubbed her back up and down, you have to think positive and not get to work up about it, Stef tells me. I'm not going in the center this morning, l already informed about my boss and before you start. I know l rarely take a day off, l have a lot errands that I need to care. Lena replied, l know you haven't been sleeping well lately. Maybe a personal day is what you need to relax, just make sure you get some rest. When you get home, Stef tells me
Oh believe me I will. Plus I want to spend some quality time with the kids
I feel like I don't see them enough,
Lena tries to explain. Baby you need to justify your reasoning for spending time with our children, l totally understand. I wish we have more time with them to, l was thinking we could take a mini family trip the four of us. How does that sound, Stef said
Where would we go Sweetheart Lena questions. Don't worry l'll have the perfect place in mind and your gonna to love it, we might need to get some groceries. Stef winks at Lena
Now I need to get showered and ready for another fun day at the University, Stef Stated. Do you mind if I join you in the shower Lena asked
Sure Stef says. Lena got up from Stef's lap, and heads up the steps to check on the babies, Lena sees Nyla was still asleep. Lena fixes Nyla's blanket and kisses Nyla on the cheek, mommy loves you princess Lena whispers to her little girl. She leaves the room and goes down to Braylon's bedroom, Braylon has always loved spider man
For some reason. Lena had his room
Decorated into the red and blue into Braylon's favorite cartoon character
Her father's good friend who's an artist. Drew spider Man all along the wall Braylon's wall, using washable paint. So it would be easy to wash off
Nyla has all the Disney princesses on hers, the whole project took three weeks to complete. Which Stef and I had to get them brand new bedding
They twin beds, l just watched Braylon as he slept without a care in the world. I wish I could back in time
to when they were baby's again, l love my children more than I ever thought possible. I can't not imagine what my life would be without them here,
