Chapter 782: Chapter 199- Trinity – In The Hospital Part 2 (VOLUME 4)
~~
Trinity
~~
Reece was staying with me in the hospital of course. He wasn’t going to leave me at all. He had them bring him in a second bed, since this room was big enough for it. That was where he was going to sleep for the duration that we were here. He also had Noah bring him another bag of clothes from the house.
The first thing that he did the night that we got to the hospital was take a shower and change his clothes. He knew that I would want to be cleaned too, so he took advantage of the situation and gave me a sponge bath. I should have known that was coming. He was still my Reece even if I was ma.s.sively pregnant and we were at the hospital. He would do what he could to bathe me like he did all the time at home. I loved him for it too.
The day after Christmas started a new routine for us. We would get breakfast delivered from a restaurant because Reece didn’t want to eat hospital food. We would read, talk, play cards, or just about anything that we wanted to. There were the interruptions of the nurse as they checked on me of course, but that was it. Later, in the afternoon, Mom or Lila would bring the kids to see me and we would have lunch together. They would, of course, bring the food that Reece ordered for us.
The kids would feel my belly and talk to the boys. I would read them a story and they would give me drawings that they made for me. It was fun, for the kids at least. I was bored and would rather be at home.
.....
I knew that I was going to be in here, at the hospital, during the start of the new year. I would miss all of the celebrations with the kids at home, so they wanted to come here and see me at the hospital and stay as late as they could. They wanted to make sure that we didn’t miss anything at all. And they were going to call me at midnight, if they were still up.
I wanted to have something special for the kids when they came over, so I had Reece decorate the room with some things from the closest store. That was as far as he was willing to get from me so that he could buy them. Also, I had one of the nurses pick up a few stuffed animals from the gift shop for me so that I could give them to the kids when they got here.
After the decorations were hung and the food for the night was delivered, it was time for the kids to come. Oh, and the food that we had with us was pizza, bread, wings, salad, cake and pasta. It was all delivered and being kept warm while the kids hurried up from the lobby with Mom and Lila.
“Mommy! Mommy! Mommy! Are the babies here yet?” Talia called out when she came in.
“No honey, not yet.” I smiled at her. I knew that she was getting anxious and excited. They all wanted to see the babies really soon.
“We brought you something, Mom.” Rika said as she held out a small gift bag.
“What is this?” I asked her with a smile on my face. They had thought of me and that made my heart melt.
“We all helped Lola and Nona make these. I hope you like them.” Reagan sounded so proud of himself. I would have loved it even if it didn’t turn out perfectly. Whatever these gifts were, they were from my children and that was what mattered the most.
I took the gift bag from Talia and pulled out the tissue paper on top. Underneath the tissue paper, there were three little blankets. They were hand crocheted, and it was easy to see the by st.i.tches right away that the kids had made them. They were a little sloppy but they were still perfect in my eyes. The blankets were all dark blue with light blue lettering in the middle. The lettering spelled out the names Zachary Aaron, Zander Ian, and Zayden Issac.
“Oh my G.o.ddess, these are so perfect. I love them so much. Thank you, all of you, thank you so much.” I was on the verge of tears when I looked at them. I couldn’t believe that they had done this for me. This was so amazing and the perfect surprise.
“Will you use them for the babies when they get here, Mommy?” Talia asked me all excited. I want to see them use them.”
“Yes, of course I will, honey. And I just know that your brothers are going to love them too. This is going to be their first gift from their big brother and big sisters. They are going to be so happy.”
“Yay! I am making my baby brothers happy!” Talia spun in a circle as she danced about.
“Come here and calm down just a bit, Tally girl.” Reece scooped her up into his arms and held her against his chest. “I’ve not been getting good night hugs and I miss them. I need hugs from all of you.”
“OK, Daddy, I will hug you.” She was so sweet as she settled down to give Reece his hug. And without being prompted, Reagan and Rika went over and joined in the ma.s.sive Daddy hug. They were good kids and they all loved their daddy so much.
The kids all sat around the bed and the trays that were used for patient food. Mom and Lila were joining us as well. It was time for us to eat our dinner. I wasn’t all that hungry, but I wanted to be part of the group. I nibbled on the pizza and ate a little bit of the pasta. I only ate a couple of bites of my salad and breadsticks. And when it came time for us to eat the dessert, I barely ate any of that, even though it was my favorite cake.
Normally during the New Year celebrations, the kids, Reece and I make out a list of things that we want to accomplish that year. It was like the New Year’s resolutions, but they were actually attainable. I didn’t want to break that tradition, so we made those lists now. We always made them into something that was personalized and fun.
Reagan’s list was shaped like a guitar and his list included a list of songs he wanted to learn to play and places that he wanted to go visit with his family. However, at the top of his list was listed that he wanted ‘to be the best big brother in the world to all of his siblings’. I already knew that he would be able to do that.
Rika’s list was in the shape of a tiger, her newest animal obsession. She put a list of desserts to learn how to make from me, Mom, Lila and Abigail. And then the rest of it included things that she wanted to do for the babies when they were here. She wanted to feed a baby and change a diaper. She wanted to learn how to give a baby a bath and dress them in their clothes. Written right above that list of things to do for the babies was the goal ‘to be Mommy’s big helper’. She was the sweetest ever.

Talia’s list was shaped like Angel. That little pet was always with her at the castle. On her list were things like ‘hold all my baby siblings’, ‘give the babies hugs and kisses every day’, ‘learn all that I can so that I grow up smart’, ‘start training with the G.o.ds so that I can be a G.o.ddess’. She was a smart little girl already, and I could tell that she was going to be even more special than I thought that she was going to be before.
Reece made his list look like a bunny. And on that list were things that showed how much of a devoted father he was. He wanted to be there for the kids and take them places. But also on the list were things that said ‘make sure my little bunny never leaves on an extended trip again’, ‘protect my Little Bunny’, ‘be the world’s best husband to my Little Bunny’. He was the best husband ever.
On my list, which I made in the shape of a heart because I had so much love for my family, I put that I didn’t want to leave the kids if I could help it, I wanted to spend more time with the kids when they were home, I wanted the babies to be born healthy and to be happy when they get home, and I wanted to have a weekly date night with Reece so that we could have some alone time with each other on a regular basis.
All in all, I do think that this New Year’s celebration was starting off quite amazingly. The kids were having fun the entire time. We even turned on some music for them to dance to and then sat back to watch a movie until they had to leave.
I was having so much fun and all I wanted to do was spend more time with them. I knew that they had to go though, visiting hours were over and they needed to get to the house so that they could finish their party there.
I was looking forward to their call later when they got home. That is, if any of them managed to stay awake until midnight.
