The two big department stores in our hometown have both sold out of children’s bicycles. Kathryn is checking the Internet from a laptop, she constantly shakes her head and I can feel her frustrations grow. She finally turns to me and says, "Why is it I can’t find a single bicycle, let alone three for the girls. At this rate they will have to wait until spring before anyone has a bicycle available."
With a sad smile I say, "Every now and then no matter who you are, how much money you have, you’ll receive a disappointment in life. I guess this is one of those times."
Kathryn and I both filled defeated by this event. We cannot get a hold of one if any does not exist, no matter how much money we have. We cannot be mad at retailers for selling something. I hope that it went to a child who appreciates their gift. My regret is truly disappointing Cindy, it seems to be the one thing I will not be able to avoid.
Arriving home Sam, Crystal and even Cindy remain asleep. Sam usually awakes as soon as the engine stops and I simply assumed Crystal and Cindy would do the same. Fortunately for us, they stay asleep and Kathryn carries Cindy as I carry Crystal and Sam. Kathryn leads straight to our bedroom, turns down the covers and begins removing their shoes allowing them to drop on the soft carpet. The three girls remain asleep as we dress them in their pajamas. Laying them in the bed, they cuddle close to one another in their sleep.
Kathryn and I remove all the clothing we purchased today, and Kathryn ready several loads of laundry preferring to wash it before allowing the girls to wear the clothing. She starts a couple of loads as we watch the fireworks first from Sydney Australia, which is recorded several hours ago, to Rome, London, and two more hours it will be New York and Washington DC. We do laundry as the time ticks on down Kathryn and I will stay up until midnight share a long kiss like the one we share every New Year since we began dating.
It does not take us long, and we have most of the clothing washed and ready. We fill the drawers, and closets. We use the two empty bedrooms closest to Mom’s wing of the house for the girls. With each of the girls having her own bedroom walk-in closet, it is surprising how full Cindy and Crystal’s closets are after only one shopping trip. Placing Cindy’s suitcase in the bottom of her closet, we can ask her tomorrow if there is anything she wants to keep, as far as I am concerned there is nothing in there that is deserving of her.
Most likely, on the day after I return from my trip to Texas, we will be buying new furniture for Cindy and Crystal. This is just one more way Kathryn can spoil the girls. Kathryn did this was Sam, and I think it helped Sam realize this is her home. Maybe this will help Crystal to realize that as well. Cindy too, I want her to realize that she is found a place in our hearts and we will always have a home for her.
It is about eleven thirty, when I turned to Kathryn and say, "Sam’s going to wake up in a minute and we need to be there."
Kathryn raises an eyebrow and I can tell she is a little skeptical but does not question me all that much at least aloud, as we walk upstairs I can hear Sam is having a bad dream. I just managed to get to the bed as she sets up and I take her into my arms before she begins to panic. It takes a minute or two to calm her down, but she is awoken Cindy and Crystal.
I look at the clock it is only a little less than ten minutes before midnight, and I ask, "Would you like to see the fireworks because it’s New Year’s."
Sam clings to me, Kathryn takes Crystal and Cindy massages Sam’s back as she walks beside me. Cindy says, "It’s okay Sam, it was just a bad dream. Nothing bad is going to happen."
Sam looking up into my face says, "Daddy, promise me when you go to Texas you won’t go to any bars."
Giving how scared Sam is it does not take me long to promise by saying, "Sam I won’t go to any bars. Even though I’m just going to be there one night I’ll make sure I don’t."
Sam seems relax a little after I say that finally she gives me a smile and says, "Maybe I should go with you to keep you out of trouble."
Kathryn giggles before she says, "Sam who’s going to protect Crystal, Cindy and me. Without your daddy here we need you."
Sam looks at me hard before she again asks, "Daddy, you promise not to go to any bars?"
Looking Sam in the eyes, I noticed they are blue, and I would do anything to turn them green again. "I promise Sam I will not go to any bars ever." Sam throws her arms back around me, and I melt into her hug. Kathryn, Cindy and Crystal giggle at me. They know I would do anything to make them happy.
As the TV begins to boom from the fireworks, Sam and I release, and I marvel at how quickly her eye color changes to green. As we set on the sofa, Sam in my lap scoots over enough for Crystal to join her. Cindy is against my right side and Kathryn against my left as we watch the fireworks together. I turned to Kathryn and we share a kiss, breaking to giggles from the girls.
I kiss the girls cheeks, wish them happy New Year, and steal another kiss from Kathryn at our first chance. The girls giggle again catching us, Kathryn and I break our kiss with smiles on our faces. The fireworks go on for another few minutes by the end of the fireworks the girls are beginning to fall back asleep. However, we wake them up long enough to show Cindy her bedroom and her closet.
Cindy remarks with wide eyes, "I’ve never had so many clothes before and my whole life."
Giving Cindy a hug Kathryn says, "That’s just your winter clothing. We still have to go shopping for your spring wardrobe."
Despite her excitement, Cindy gives a sleepy yon. I ask, "Cindy do you want to sleep here in your room?"
Cindy looking at me newly awake from the question she asks, "This is my room, really?"
Smiling I say, "Long as you want it to be." Cindy gives a squeal, and spins around like a ballerina she so happy. When she stops, Sam gives her a hug.
Crystal could not stay awake and has already fallen asleep in my arms. Cindy and Sam giggle, until they both yon. Kathryn and I lead them back to our bedroom. After Kathryn and I change into our pajamas, the girls shift in their sleep and before I know it, all three somehow have gotten themselves onto my chest. Kathryn throws her arm across the three girls who were spooning. It does not take long for the five of us to be asleep.
Kathryn and I awake to find Helen and Mom giggling at the side of our bed. The three girls still spoon on my chest with Kathryn’s arm across them. As large, as the bed is we may be only using a quarter of it. Mom laughs saying, "You know you can save some money by just buying a full-size bed."
Crystal is the first of the girls to move as soon as she does the other two follow her to the bathroom leaving Kathryn and me to speak to Mom and Helen. I begin by saying, "I think it’s a great way to start the year, I get the wake up with not just one beautiful female, but four."
Kathryn giggles then punches me on my arm. "You better be glad two of those girls are our daughters, and the other is our niece."
Chuckling I say, "You know you’re the only woman I feel that way about."
Kathryn with a sly look says, "I know, you allowed me into your heart fully and I know what it feels."
Mom and Helen giggle. Then Helen says, "That isn’t a secret, from the first day JJ kissed you I knew he was totally in love with you."
Mom says, "He sure was, and so was she. The two of them couldn’t get any closer."
Helen says, "Nothing could tempt JJ from Kathryn side. Then I learned nothing would cause him to abandon her. When everyone else was afraid, the only fear he had was in losing her. He would rather lose his own life than see that happen."
Smiling up at my mother-in-law I say, "Without Kathryn I have no life."
Kathryn pulls me into her arms and tight against her, we kiss passionately even though Amanda kicks hard and I can feel it. There are giggles from the girls and our mothers when we finally do separate. I help Kathryn up, and tell our mothers will be down for breakfast in a few minutes. My Mom takes Sam and Crystal, and Helen takes Cindy and they go to the kitchen.
When we finally do get down to the kitchen we find Alyssa, Joan, Misty, Mom and Helen had started breakfast. Scooping Crystal up I tell her, "Now you’re going to see why I’m Sam’s forth favorite cook."
Crystal says, "Sam and I still love your pancakes."
I say, "Thank you my beautiful Princess, but I love these ladies’ cooking too."
They all turn on cue and say simultaneously, "Thank you JJ."
We all cook breakfast like we do on most Saturdays, of course that meant me making pancakes, and it is the first time for having bunny pancakes for Cindy, Anna, Allen, and Rosy. Just as we were setting the table, Kara and Daniel finally come out of their house to join the family again.
I took a momentary break from pancakes to introduce my new daughter and niece to the one aunt and uncle she has not met yet. Cindy was surprised when she met Kara for the first time. The two seem to share a connection that I seem to recognize. I held that impression to myself not knowing how it will finally play out.
Daniel looked at me before he says, "We stay away for a week and you have a new daughter, a foster daughter that you call your niece, what would happen if we were gone for an entire month?"
Joking with him I say, "We probably have a high-rise standing here. The way it’s going we will need the room."
Kara cannot really help it, she is holding Cindy on her lap and the two talk a lot like MC and Rosy where the other night. Still having Daniels attention I ask him, "Have you met Anna, Allen and Rosy yet?"
With a shocked look on his face he asks, "I’m afraid to really ask, but more?"
I go into the story and explain to him what happened. How a simple text started things happening, by doing a tradition that brings families together and how it really did just that. How a simple act of kindness at such a big reward. Just as I finish my story, Crystal runs up to me with Rosy at her side, Crystal takes my hand and says, "Daddy show us the pool. Please Daddy."
Rosy taking my other hand says, "Please uncle JJ, we have a little time before breakfast."
Chuckling I reply, "How can I turned down two beautiful little Princesses like you?" I scooped them up into my arms to Daniels chuckles.
Daniel following along as the two chatter and I do the best to keep up with the conversation they are having with me. Crystal for being such a quiet girl just a day before has done a complete turnaround and is talking a mile a minute. Rosy seems to have no trouble keeping up with Crystal’s conversation.
I finally clear my throat and begin to explain the rules about the pool and the patio area. Having the girls’ attention, I tell them, "You only come in here with an adult. You only get to swim with an adult here once you know how to swim. You never swim alone. Rosy until your Mama knows how to swim well you can come here with her but unless your Aunt Kathryn or your Aunt Kara or one of your other aunts or uncles are here you two stay out of the pool. Your Grandpa is a good swim coach once you know the basics."
Daniel chuckles in the background, obviously Kara has told him how he educated his children how to swim. Ignoring Daniel I continue, "It will take a couple days to teach you how to swim. The first thing we are going to learn is how to float. Sam is going to help me teach Cindy and you how to swim. Even though Sam swims very well I want an adult here with you and her."
Crystal asks, "Can Sam swim really good?"
Daniel chuckles before he says, "Better than I, and I used to be on the swim team for my college."
Sam from behind us asks, "Really Uncle Daniel. Am I that good?"
Turning he says to Sam, "Like you are part mermaid."
Sam giggles, "I still got a breathe air."
Laughing Daniel says, "That’s why you’re only part."
Sam says, "Breakfast is ready." Then begins laughing along with her Uncle Daniel. She takes his hand and pulls him along as I follow.
At the breakfast table, Kara sets Daniel beside me and Cindy in his lap. Sam sits in my lap, and Crystal in Kathryn’s lap. Across the table from us George has Anna in his lap, Alyssa’s other side is Marshall with Allen in his lap. Misty leans onto Marshall’s shoulder as she caresses her belly.
Daniel looks it all his in-laws before he leans over to me and whispers, "I guess I better get used to having a child on my lap. Kara wants a lot of kids."
With a chuckle I say, "Must run in the family." Daniel chuckles as he straightens up.
Cindy turns and smiles at Daniel, as Daniel looks into her face a smile slowly spread across his face. He finally says, "Hi I’m Daniel."
Cindy response, "Hi I’m Cindy."
Alyssa does, as she always likes to do; she serves everyone at the table filling their plates with food before passing them out. She ensures everyone with a child on his or her lap gets a larger portion like the one she has done with Sam and me so often.
Breakfast is really fun, and we do our best to catch up Daniel and Kara on the week’s events.
We begin cleaning up and still everyone is focus on sharing with each other. Once everything cleared away and the dishes washed and dried, Alyssa pulls out the ingredients for tamales, the ones we made the other night all went to the orphanage. As we mixed the ingredients, Anna and Joan are beside their mother. Alyssa smiles at Anna and says, "I never thought I’d get so much out of making tamales."
Chuckling I say, "Your tamales are one of the reasons I love your cooking. You put so much love in your food, it’s no wonder Sam likes your cooking so well too."
Crystal from my lap says, "Daddy that’s why I love your bunny pancakes. Grandpa can’t get the ears right like you do, but they still taste good."
The Coach chuckles, "That’s because three special little princesses made the batter."
Kara, Kathryn, Cindy, and Sam are working on the stuffing. Kathryn begins adding spices as Alyssa watches, once Kathryn is done Alyssa smiles before she says, "You did that perfectly."
Kathryn smiles and says, "Thanks Alyssa for showing me."
Kara says, "I did miss a lot this week, but I don’t regret the time I spent with Daniel." The rest of the women in the room break out into giggles, after a second or so Sam begins to giggle too.
Kara is blushing but she asks, "Sam why are you giggling?"
Sam walks over to Kara then whispers in her ear, Kara blushes even deeper at whatever Sam whispered. Giggles turn to full laughter at Kara’s reaction. Still looking into Kara’s face smiling with green eyes of her own Sam says, "It’s good that your eyes are really green showing you’re really happy because Mommy was going to kick Uncle Daniel’s ass if you weren’t happy."
Kara turning sharply to Kathryn her anger is turn to confusion by seeing her sister laughing so hard. When Kathryn brings herself under control, she just gives Kara a hug and says, "You are louder than what you think you are. Poor Daniel’s going to need earplugs or hearing aids."
Kara questions, "What does Sam mean by my eyes being green? They are Hazel."
Kathryn says, "You really haven’t paid any attention to yourself, go look in the mirror."
Kara’s expression gives away her confusion as the room giggles, most of the family is fully aware now having seen hers and Sam’s green eyes after hearing Mom tell the story.
I noticed how Alyssa looked into Sam’s eyes once she was certain, a broad smile crossed her face, and I heard her say our beautiful little green-eyed Princess. Like in most families news travels fast, it was not five minutes before Joan did the same. The first thing Misty did this morning was to pick up Sam so she can get a good look at her face too.
Ron and Reese are just walking in together, Reese come straight to Sam she looks her in the face before she exclaims, "Wow, they really are green!"
Ron is equally amazed as he says, "I thought I saw them change shades before, but I thought it was due to the lighting."
Sam giggles, "No, they’re just like Mommy’s and Aunt Kara’s they give away that I’m happy."
Reese turns to Kara as she looks closely in to her face, "Sam you’re right. Kara’s eyes are as green as yours."
Kara finally gets up and goes to the mirror in the bathroom upon seeing her own reflection she remarks, "Oh my God they are green!"
Running from the bathroom she looks into Sam’s face, then into Kathryn’s eyes closely, she hugs Kathryn tightly and asks, "Are my eyes as green as yours?"
Giggling because she so happy, Kathryn says, "I believe they are."
Helen says, "Two down, six to go."
Kathryn and Kara turn to her with confused looks before Helen explains, "I got two of my children happy and married. Will your eyes be green every day, probably not? Will they be green more than they are hazel, blue, or even brown? I truly believe they will be. Now I have six more children hopefully to find the same happiness." Kathryn and Kara wrapped their mother in a hug as the three shed tears of joy.
I know for sure that whatever Helen did in the past she did out of love, she like most mothers do the best they can to ensure her children are happy and healthy. Sometimes I wondered about that, but I realize she gave Kathryn her freedom, choosing not to interfere with our relationship. It would be very easy for her to demand for us to have ended our relationship due to the four years difference in age. However, Kathryn was in the same school year as I was, and most of the same classes. To tell you the truth Kathryn was more serious than I was most of the time. I truly did not pay any attention to the difference in our age, because if there ever were a fact I would forget it is that.
I guess that was probably the hardest thing in the world to do, if you think your child is making a mistake to set back and not interfere. In Kathryn’s case if Helen had interfered it would not allow us to grow together as we did. Maybe she learned that lesson by the time Kathryn and I were falling in love. One day we will have to have a long talk with her. By the time Sam is Kathryn’s age now I wonder who will be chasing her or she is chasing, and how I will react. I only hope it turns out as well as it did for Kathryn and me.
The Coach comes and gets me, he says, "Let these ladies gossip, the game is on."
Mom and Helen giggle, before Alyssa says, "Go on JJ spent some time with the boys."
Kathryn playfully comes over and puts a big long kiss on my lips before she says, "Go on my love, but know I will miss you."
The coach chuckles as he rolls his eyes saying, "He’s just going to be downstairs for heaven sake." With his hand on my shoulder, he practically pushes me to the elevator.
The women laugh at the two of us, as I turn and wave to Kathryn. The Coach finally tugs on me one more time before pushing me into the elevator.
As the door opens in the basement and we step out, all the male in-laws are in the family room waiting on us. I ask my father-in-law, "What’s going on? I thought we were watching a game."
The coach says, "Games not on yet, but you let Kathryn tell that bear story for the last two and a half years. We want to hear it from you. Don’t leave out anything."
Just then, Ron shows up. He asks, "He didn’t start it yet?"
The Coach turns to him, "You’re in time; he’s just about to start. Okay JJ everybody is here now, tell us the story." When Michael senior gets like this, I know I will not get out of telling the story.
The bond Kathryn and I share seems to grow stronger every day, when she realizes that there is no game on. I can feel Kathryn moving to me. I can almost feel her pick up Sam and Crystal as she heads towards the stairs.
With everyone’s attention on me, they do not notice Kathryn caring Sam and Crystal come down the stairs. They stop where she can look at me and easily watch, Kara brings Cindy with her and sits beside her sister. Now that my wife is present too I begin, "It was a couple days after I asked Kathryn to marry me. I went up to visit her at grandma’s house up in the mountains. It took longer to drive there than I thought it would, and I lost track of time when I was with Kathryn. Because it was late, Grandma insisted that I stay overnight. I spent the night with the boys in the attic. I usually get up for a run in the morning so I was up before everyone else, but I only beat Grandma by ten minutes. We talked on her back porch, and she asked my life story so I gave her the abridged version. Like what you are getting right now, I can remember the conversation like yesterday if you really want to know it. However, because the game will be on shortly let me continue. After our conversation, Grandma gets Kathryn up because she asked me to pick her some berries.
She got Kathryn up the show me where the patch was at." I take a deep breath remembering how beautiful Kathryn looked to me.
"Grandma must have just drag Kathryn out of bed only allowing her enough time to put on a pair of jeans and she still wore the T-shirt that she had worn to bed. Kathryn standing there in a pair of old blue jeans and a white T-shirt was the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. Grandma giggled for five minutes at the way I reacted when I saw Kathryn. She finally handed us a couple buckets and pointed us up the hill."
"When we finally reached the berry patch, picking berries was the last thing on my mind. Kathryn had a sly smile as we pulled each other into a long kiss. We did manage to pick a few berries before my four sisters showed up. Of course they started teasing us a little bit and we try to pick berries rather quickly to make up for the time we spent in each other’s arms."
We must’ve pick berries for nearly half an hour or so before, our sisters teasing us had her so mad that I pulled her into another kiss before she started kicking their asses."
The coach chuckles, "That sounds true, the way Kathryn tells it you would never know her big sisters would teaser so much."
After the room finished chuckling, I continue, "About what would be halfway through our kiss the girl start screaming. That is when we saw the bear higher on the hill; before I could tell them not to run. They all start running down the hill. The bear then seen them as prey and charged after, even running downhill a human being is not faster than a bear. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Michelle trip and fall. I told Kathryn to stand behind me; fear had her not willing to leave me.
I did the only thing I could, I raised my hands up and shouted as loudly as I possibly could and step between Michelle and the bear. I must have blocked the bear’s view of Michelle, and confused it. The bear come to a sliding halt, and I hoped that it would turn and leave. When it stood up on its hind legs, the only thing I could think was that is, one big, bear.
When it started growling, I knew I could not back down Kathryn was still a few feet behind me, Michelle still on the ground most likely. I could not see, but from the sound of it, she was struggling to get her feet under her again. So there I stood shouting at the bear, hoping it would back down. It seemed like it was going to be forever that I was going to be standing there shouting at that bear. My lungs were burning and I was afraid if I took a breath the bear would take that as a sign an attack.
So I step forward still shouting in the bear begin to lumber forward. I knew if I did not do something, Michelle, Kathryn and I most likely would be dead. I could not wait to see if the bear would, back down any longer it was nearly in range to hit me with a claw.
I put everything I had in that kick, aimed it at the weakest spot I could think of. I was hoping just hit hard enough to keep it from breathing for a moment or two, but man was I scared. If I did not make the bear back down, I hope I would give Kathryn and Michelle enough time to get away.
When the kick landed, I did not realize just how hard I kicked the bear until it went flying backwards, and I heard that sickening pop I knew I broke its neck. I stood there over the bear’s corpse, the air went out of its lungs and it did not make a single sound after that.
That first instance that I knew the bear was dead I wanted to shout for joy. Then the realization that I just killed a majestic creature hit me. I had not even killed a fly before that. The bear was just being a bear, but there is no way I was going to let it hurt my family.
The coach stands up pulls me into a bear hug and slaps me on the back as he says loudly, "That’s why I let him marry my baby."
Kathryn laughs from the stairwell, Sam and Crystal set there with big eyes. Kara is beside her sister with Cindy on her lap; Cindy has the same large eyed expression as my daughters. This was the very first time that I told the story since it happened. Kathryn says, "JJ you got everything right except that I was frozen with fear."
With a chuckle after I work my way out of the bear hug my father-in-law had me in I say, "That was before I could tell what you were thinking or feeling. I had to guess, sorry Love."
My in-laws begin chuckling and my father in law says, "He’s a wise man for sure, he’s brave enough to stand up to a seven and half foot tall black bear, but knows it is best to back down to his wife."
Looking at my father-in-law I tell him, "You better believe it. She is tougher than that bear now. When it comes to martial arts she is probably as good as I am. I wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of any punch Kathryn throws." For the first time in months, I have actually surprised Kathryn with something I said. Everyone in the room is laughing mostly at Kathryn’s expression as I walked to her. I put her in a bear hug of my own.
Looking up into my face Kathryn asks, "Do you really mean it, am I as good as you?"
Smiling I just kiss her, open myself fully to her and she knows that I truly mean it. She knows I do not fear her, or for her. That I would willingly stand beside her no matter the circumstance, no matter the enemy that stood before us, and that I have the same confidence in her that I have in myself.
When she pulls back, she smiles and says, "Just so you know the next time you tell the story the only reason I stood there, was because I trusted you."
Smiling I say, "Okay, I stand corrected and will always tell the story that way from now on."
We spent the next couple of hours talking about several things that happen during the year. The Coach did not believe that Sam actually through me fifteen feet during one of my classes until Kathryn showed him the video she made on her cell phone of it.
Ron chuckles, "I nearly fell over when I saw her do that."
Sam finally told us, she is going with us to Texas saying, "Mommy doesn’t need a body guard, she’s just as tough as you are Daddy, but I got to keep you out of trouble. If I don’t go to Texas with you you’re going to get in trouble again."
Chuckling Ron says, "I was going to take him out to a restaurant and were going to meet some of the guys from my old unit. Trust me, stateside; with half of my old company around us you couldn’t be safer."
Sam says, "Is the restaurant more like a bar? Because if it is, somebody tries to rob it and Daddy stops them, but somebody accidentally shoots Daddy."
I ask Sam, "Is this what your dream was about last night?" Sam merely shakes her head yes as she looks into my eyes, I can see her eyes had turned blue.
I explained to Ron about Sam’s nightmares when it came to Lance, how they were so very accurate. I tell him, "I don’t understand how it works, but Sam seems to have an idea of what’s going to happen before it does. Maybe it would be best if we schedule the get together with your friends for another time."
Ron pointing out, "When do you think we will ever get back to Texas, especially when they are there? Besides that, it is the going away party for Sergeant Major Sampson. There’s really no way of getting out of it."
