Owen's eyes widen. “Seriously?”

“Yep.”

Owen wraps his arms around my neck. “I'm gonna have a little brother or sister?”

“Actually…” Noah says. “Maybe both? We’re having twins.”

“Two babies?” Owen giddily asks.

“That’s right,” I say, loving how excited he is.

“Does that mean you're staying forever?” Owen asks Noah.

“I'm not going anywhere, bud,” Noah says, then squeezes my hand.

“So you're moving in?”

“Uhh,” Noah hesitates. “That's kinda up to your mom.”

I don’t answer his question. The last thing I want to do is put pressure on Noah, although I’m sure he’d do it in a heartbeat.

“There's one more thing, Owen. You can't tell anyone yet because it's still early in the pregnancy.”

“Don't worry, Mom. I'm really good at keeping secrets,” he says, then glances at Noah. “I’m a pro!”

Noah and Owen don't let me leave the couch for anything and wait on me hand and foot. While I wait for Loretta, I get a group text from Everleigh and Gemma.

Everleigh

Happy Mother’s Day, mamas!

Gemma

Thank you! Happy Mother’s Day, Katie! How’re you feeling today?

I smile because this Mother’s Day is more special than any of the others I’ve had.

Katie

Thanks! I’m feeling okay! Just enjoying being spoiled today.

Everleigh

Yay! You deserve it. I was super worried about you, but thankfully, Gemma kept me in the loop. I’m glad you’re alive. Otherwise, I might’ve had to avenge you.

Gemma

Everleigh! You’re terrible. Katie, glad you’re doing good. Noah’s being on his best behavior then?

I snort, and Noah glances at me and shakes his head, knowing we’re talking about him.

Katie

I had breakfast in bed, balloons, flowers, a yummy lunch, and I’ve been told I’m not to get off the couch unless I have to pee. I feel like a queen.

Everleigh

Cause you are!
