Anyways, onto the story!



When we got home that night Lilah had her birthday. She was such an adorable toddler. Although she had her father's skintone, she had my hair and my purple eyes. I think her face shape looked more like mine as well. Sadly, I found out her father was in the criminal career, and so he wouldn't be getting to know her after all. But I was determined to love her enough for the both of us.



Here's the new crib arrangement in the house. After selling the wardrobe I was able to buy two cribs. Gemma would sleep in my room with Lilah and I, and Ruby would sleep in the kitchen until I could build a nursery for them.




Baby #2, Gemma, was a happy baby, when she wasn't fussing. She was just as off and on about sleeping as Lilah. She kept me awake most of the night, between her and my garden, I was exhausted.




Luckily, Ruby was much more mellow. She was a quiet baby, and was content without much social contact. She slept on a regular schedule, with few late night or early morning feedings.



Another streak of luck was that Lilah was now sleeping through the night. Poor girl was pretty annoyed with Gemma's constant screaming.



With all the fiancial issues I was having, I spent any spare time I had where I wasn't falling asleep standing in my garden. I needed to work to afford a crib for the next baby. Luckily I got some help through a lifetime wish, I no longer had to pay bills.



I had seen a man around town who had looked a bit unique, and decided to pay him a visit to be a baby daddy. When I got to the household a pale little blond girl answered. Her name was Katrina, Rina for short, and she was an angel who lived with this man. She told me she'd try to talk him into it, but warned me that Thorn absolutly hated children.



When I saw Thorn, I was amazed. Despite the blood red eyes and pale gray skin, he was a sharp looking man. Rina introduced me to him, and I spent no time cutting to the chase.



He was reluctant to help, and not just because he didn't like children. Turns out he was dating Sarah, my bestie. I knew there was no way I could betray her trust like that.



However, he agreed, telling me that his race needed saving, and that Sarah had talked to him about doing it. Turns out Sarah couldn't have children.



So once he agreed, we got to work right away, and concieved baby #4. He made me promise never to bring the baby around him. I swore up and down I wouldn't, and he requested that if I had a girl, I would name her Cera.




Surprisingly, Sarah and I became even closer friends after, I talked to her on the phone frequently.



I was about to faint, this pregnancy was rough with twin babies and a demanding toddler to raise.



However, I was slowly adjusting to life. Gemma kept me up all night, and I would garden with any spare energy I had. I'd sleep all day, waking up for short peroids to care for the babies and attempt to teach Lilah her skills she would need.
I managed to make enough to add a nursery to the house, and until the new baby arrived, I would have my own room.



Soon I was feeling the contractions hit me hard, and I rang Sarah.



Here's baby #4, my first little boy, Torn Prattle. He has my skintone. He's excitable, and like his father, he's athletic. I couldn't wait to see how he grew up. I was so happy to have my first boy!
