As Peeta and me tucked in our kids in bed, Willow, my girl, asked "Can I get a drink of water please mommy?" "Of course be right back." I said. "Wait, can I get some too?" Asked Forest, my boy. "Yes." I laughed. As I went downstairs Buttercup almost tripped me "Hey! Watch where your going!" He hissed at me. He always liked to sleep with Willow. Willow reminded him of Prim. I got the two glasses of water and headed upstairs. "Here you go." I said to Willow "And here you go." I said to Forest. "Goodnight, have sweet dreams." Peeta whispered. "Love you." I said. Peeta turned off the lights in their bedroom. "Buttercup don't lick me silly thing!" Yelled Willow down the hall. Peeta and me laughed. "Do you think were good parents?" I asked. Peeta looked at me like I was crazy. "Yes of course we are. What brought you to that question?" He asked. "Well I don't know. Its just are we?" I asked. "Yes! I promise we are. If we weren't the kids would be crying or jumping out their window." He said. I laughed. "Well I guess we are good parents." I said. "Yes. Especially you." He said, then kissed me on the cheek. I got in the covers with him and lay there for a minute not going to sleep. I thought if we really were good parents. I remembered always saying "I'm never going to have kids. Never." But then, I already have. Willows 6 and Forest is 5. Peeta kissed me on the neck, and interrupted the thought. He kept kissing it. "Stop." I said laughing. "Fine, but please try to go asleep. Were sleeping in the same bed so you won't have nightmares." He said. I curled up next to him. Right there I fell asleep instantly. In the morning we woke up by Willow jumping on the bed with Buttercup in her arms. "Wake up. wake up!" She said. "Ok, ok we are!" I said. Peeta had his head in the pillow. "Daddy! Wake up!" Willow said. "Ok ok ok. I'm up i'm up." He said. "I'm hungry! Lets eat!" Willow said. "Ya me too!" Forest said while jumping up on the bed. "Ok i'll make you something! Let daddy and me get dressed." I would just cook in my night wear but Peeta and I had to go hunt while the kids play in the forest, then we'll teach them how to climb a tree, or at least I will. As we went downstairs Buttercup once again tripped me. "Oops sorry mommy guess I didn't hold him tight enough." Willow said. "Thats ok." I said giving Buttercup a dirty look. "Hey daddy you should make pancakes!" Said Forest. "Ya! Make them!" Said Willow. "Kat- I mean mommy would u want some too?" Peeta asked. "Actually yes, I would love some." I said. "I think Buttercup wants some too!" Said Willow chasing Buttercup around the chairs. Peeta made the pancakes and they were delicious! "Yum." I said. We all laughed.
