"Mummy, can I have some more mac and cheese?" Louise asked holding her plate out to me, I rolled my eyes playfully and put 3 more scoops on her plate. "I swear you're hollow" I giggled, I was eating peanut butter sandwich whilst everyone else was eating mac and cheese, I found it really filling so I just ate some peanut butter whenever Louise wanted mac an cheese. "Beth can I have more please?" Luke smirked holding out his plate. "No, Louise had the last little bit" I smiled at him, he pouted and took a piece off her plate. "Hey! My mac and cheese, not yours. If your hungry there's leftover pizza in the fridge." Louise yelled at him, she moved her plate away from luke and carried on eating her food. "Not a food sharing person huh? Just like me" luke chuckled, I rolled my eyes and put my crusts in the bin. "Come on little lady, you need to go to bed." I smiled sweetly and played with her long hair. "No mum, please I want you to show me that thingy on the thingy." She muttered with a mouth full of food. "Louise rose don't talk with food in your mouth" I nagged,she swallowed her food and huffed, she jumped off the seat and placed her plate in the dish washer. "Please show me the thingy" she pleaded, I sighed and walked upstairs. "Come on then monkey, just once and then you need to get ready for bed." She nodded and smiled a big smile revealing her deep dimples and glistening eyes. "Guys come on" she called for them to follow us, they stood up and followed me into the basement where the piano was kept. "Pick a number 1, 2 or 3?" I said to Louise, she sat on the piano stool with me and looked back at the boys. "Pick a number guys" she giggled, they looked from one another and then at me. "2?" It sounded like a question more than a answer. I played the right notes and looked at Louise. " Life was simple
Roger was workin round the clock to make a living
No computers, none of that; he used his two hands
Ignored the cold war, his wife would keep him warm
On the weekends
He'd load the car up with his kids and they'd go fishin
No need to work an extra job, there's no recession
Damn right, he smiled a lot, they'd lay awake at night so in love
It was a good good year
The kids were alright
"Highway to Hell" beat up "Staying Alive"
The Clash was on the radio
and mom and dad were still in love in 1979
It was a good good year
In the morning
Robin always woke up early in the kitchen
She'd make the coffee, pack his lunch and then she'd kiss him
And he would hold her tight, when they were newlyweds
He'd say maybe
And she would laugh, they knew they'd have another baby
She'd slave away all day until dinner was ready
And they would dance so slow to "Just the Way You Are"
It was a good good year
The kids were alright
"Highway to Hell" beat up "Staying Alive"
The Clash was on the radio
and mom and dad were still in love in 1979
It was a good good year
All the decades and the years have passed
Not every family is built to last
No time can take away these memories
Remember when you said to me, that we'd be alright
The kids were alright
"Highway to Hell" beat up "Staying Alive"
The Clash was on the radio
and mom and dad were still in love in 1979
It was a good good year
Disco couldn't survive
with the "Dream Police" and "Rock & Roll High"
Blondie put out "Heart of Glass"
And mom and dad bought their first house in 1979
It was a good good year
It was a good good year." I sung whilst looking at her, she smiled and placed her hands on some keys and played the simpsons theme tune. "Come on then, a deals a deal." I smiled at her, she ran up the stairs and I closed the lid on the piano. "That was good." Ashton smiled, I laughed and shook my head. "No it wasn't, that's easy to play. Come on losers let's go back up stairs." I said as I walked up the stairs, the boys all walked past me and left, I looked back at the piano and smiled.

I've just managed to put my hyper little monkey to bed, she was fast asleep and tightly tucked in. I left her room and closed the door quietly, I looked in her nursery and smiled.
{Flashback}
"Come on lou lou, you can do it." I cooed as I reached out my arms, she pulled her little body up so she was standing, she wobbled a little but soon found her balance. She looked at me with a big smile as she totted over to me slowly and unsteadily. "Come on baby girl" I giggled, she took 2 more steps and reached her hand out for mine. "You did it lou, you walked! I have to call lu-" I stopped and felt my heart sink once again, I looked at my little girl and smiled. "I forgot for a minute, oh well Louise you walked to mummy" I exclaimed, I felt tears of joy spring out my eyes and down my cheeks. "ma" she gurgled, I kissed her cheeks and finally her nose.
{End of flash back}
I snapped out if it and walked back downstairs to the kitchen, the boys were in the living room so I poured myself a vodka and ribeina, I put in 3 shot glasses of vodka and the rest with a ribiena carton. "Adult juice" I whispered as I walked out the kitchen to the couch. "So we can have a drink together tomorrow but tonight I'm thinking movie marathon" I said as I placed my glass on the coffee table. "Give a bit of that drink." Michael said as he sipped my drink. "Ah! That's not ribeina!" He whined, I took the glass back and sipped it. "It's adult ribeina, half ribiena half...vda" I muttered inaudible. "Half ribiena half what?!" Mike whined, I sighed and finished the rest of my drink. "I said half ribeina and half vodka" I spoke clearly. "Jesus! I hope Louise doesn't have this!" Ashton giggled. "No! I just steal her carton all the time to mix it up, it's the best mix of drinks ever."
