Once again they were out of the country for a business meeting. It didn’t come as a surprise to me

more than in enough and a lot to choose from” I laugh.

get when or where he goes shopping when he is in hiding. Everything he has bought is in color

pink. Just like with Noah and Ethan, he also believes that it will be a baby girl.

My smile falls as soon as thoughts of him pass through my mind. I know I promised him, but I
