Good News..

" Here Lani put this shirt." I said handing her a shirt. Me and Benji had been back from our honeymoon for about a month or so.

" Do I have to?" she sighed.

" Yes. Come on so we're not late." I responded.

Today Benji's parents were having a family dinner.

" I'm done." Lani said.

" Bug do you know what your shirt says ?" I asked.

She pulled her shirt out and started sounding the words out.

" Big sister ?" she said, squinting her eyes.

" But I don't have a sister." she said.

" Can I tell you a secret?" I asked.

" Ou I love secrets." she responded.

" Mommy's having a baby." I whispered, in her ear.

" Are you serious ?" she asked.

" Yes bug your going to be a big sister." I said ,and she started jumping up and down.

" Can we tell daddy?" she asked.

" Yea come on." I responded.

I grabbed her hand and we walked to me and Benji's room.

" Daddy, me and mommy have a secret. Do you think you can keep it ?" she said, making me laugh.

" Lani who shirt you got on? Is that Kennedy's shirt ?" Benji asked.

" No silly , mommy got me this." Lani chuckled.

" Leah?" he asked looking up at me.

" Tell him Lani." I giggled.

" Mommy's having a baby." she said jumping up and down.

" 5 weeks." I cheesed.

He ran to me and picked me up.

" Daddy can we have a dance party ?" Lani asked.

" Yea." he said.

Benji turned on one of his songs and we all started dancing. We danced for two songs and then I realized we had to go.

" Benji why are you rubbing my stomach?" I asked." I'm not even showing yet." I chuckled.

He didn't answer he just kept rubbing my stomach and driving.

" Have you been to the doctors ?" Benji asked.

" Yea, so far baby number 2 is healthy. My doctor says that she thinks that my miscarriage was cause by the antidepressants. Luckily I stopped taking them when you said you wanted to start trying for another baby." I informed him.

" Wow we having another baby." Benji said.

" You know I kind of like being pregnant. Like when the baby kicks and stuff it's just so amazing to me." I said.

" Well i'm glad you like it cause your going to be pregnant about 4 more times." he said.

We finally pulled up to Benji's moms house. Benji picked Lani up and we headed to the front door.
