“What? Why do you automatically look at me?”

“Wow. I’m impressed at how clearly he says it,” Jeff said.

My father walked up and hit his head from behind. “Assmole. ” My father winked at Matt.

Oh my god. What in the hell is happening? My child just said, “Shit,” and…and…

“Did you just call Jeff an assmole, Dad?”

Matt looked up from his iPad. “Jeff is an assmole. Everyone knows that. ”

Jeff just shrugged his shoulders and took Luke out of my arms. “Hey, big boy. That’s a bad word. We don’t say shit. ”

“Shit! Shit! Shit!”

“Ah shit, Ari. He keeps saying it. ”

I just stood there and looked at him. I swear if I didn’t love him so damn much…

“Nice, Jeff…swear at him while you tell him not to swear,” my father said as he walked up and took Grace from my mother.

“I didn’t swear at him…I…um…Ari?”

“Don’t Ari me. You dug the hole, baby. ” I walked by and gave him a wink.

I fell onto the bed and let out a sigh. Jesus H. Christ, I don’t remember being this tired after Luke. I can’t move.

Jeff and Josh had been helping Gunner tag cattle all day. I reached over and picked up the phone to call Heather.

“Hello?”

“Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. You sound like how I feel. ”

“Oh my god. I’m so tired. I’d give anything to get, like, a good solid three hours of sleep. ” Heather yawned.

“You haven’t slept for a solid three hours yet? Oh my god, Heather. ”

“How old are the babies?”

“Um…I sat up and looked around. Five days old now?”

Heather started laughing. “I thought it was six. ”

“Is Elizabeth still there, helping?”

Heather yawned again, which caused me to yawn. “Yes! Thank God, too. I don’t know what I would have done if she weren’t here. Josh got out of the house today for the first time since we brought the babies home. He’s helping Jeff and Gunner. ”

“Yeah, Jeff told me. Have you heard from Ells?”

“Not today. Have you?”

“Nope. She’s up to something though. She looked…different to me. ”

Heather sucked in a breath of air. “Amanda and I thought so, too! Like she might be—”

“Pregs?”

“Yes!”
