I feel bad for making you all wait 2 weeks while I spend time with my sick dog. If you are wondering Vader is doing good. None of the side affects from the chemo yet. He goes back next week so I may have to skip next week. I will make sure to keep you all updated on him. Here's a chapter you have all been waiting for.

"Clary" I hear my name being called softly. "Clary wake up" I hear softly. I open my eyes to see Jace looking at me smiling. "Hi" I say. "Hi. You ready to go get Grace. We can leave a little after lunch" he asks. "Okay" I say.

I get out of the bed and go look for something to wear in my closet. We ended up waiting until May 25th to go get her that way she could finish kindergarten. She is finally out of school so we can go get her.

I decide on a red skirt and white top that's sleeveless. I slip on some brown flats and get ready for the day and we go down to breakfast.

I get Braxton ready for the day and Jace heads on to the dining room. I make Braxton's breakfast plate and give it to him. "I don't want it" he says. "Braxton eat your breakfast" I tell him. "No" he says. "Braxton if you eat your breakfast I will teach you how to fly" jace says. "Really" Braxton asks excited. "Yeah but you have to eat your breakfast first" jace says. "Okay daddy" Braxton says and eats his blueberries. "Thank you" I mouth. He nods.

"Do you have the plane tickets yet" Jace asks. We decided it was probably best if we fly down there and back to New York. Grace might not be ready to go through a portal right away when we find her. "No, Tessa has them. When we portal to moms house she will come and give them to us" I tell him. "I gotcha. You think we should wait until after lunch to portal there. There is a big time difference from here and there" Jace asks. "That's a good idea. If we leave after lunch it will probably be around 8 or 9 in the morning" I say. "Yeah" Jace says.

"So is your mom still working at Herondale designs or did she go back to being a stay at home mom" he asks me. "She is still working. She isn't managing the bookstore though. Mom and Tessa are working together and managing Herondale designs" I tell him. "I'm surprised she didn't keep painting. You both are really good at it" Jace says. "Thanks. She said she is still doing that but it is more for herself instead of profit since painters don't get a lot of money anymore. She can earn more money managing Herondale designs" I tell him "That makes sense" he says.

"You look pwetty mommy" Braxton says. This random thing he just said shocks me. He never says stuff like that. He never had before. "What" I ask to make sure I herd him right. "You look pwetty mommy" he repeats. I smile at him. "Thank you Braxton" I say. "She is isn't she" Jace says smiling at me the same way Braxton is.

"I take a bite of my breakfast. "I know I'm late asking this question, but where's Chrissie" he asks. "Whos that" Braxton asks. "She was my dog" I tell my little boy. "Was" Jace asks. "She died a few months after Braxton was born" I tell Jace. "Oh clary, I'm sorry. I know that must have been hard. I know how much she meant to you" Jace says. "It was. It still is. She is buried in the back of the castle. I couldn't bring myself to do a anything else with her" I tell him. "That's okay clare, I understand" he says.
