I Am The Luna

Coming Home

ZAIA. I look in the mirror, feeling all jittery and nervous. Two and a half hours have passed, and I am all ready. I managed to have the food ready, showered myself, dressed the children, set up the welcome home banner and balloon and finally got dressed myself. I like how I look. I think so will Sebastian…

“Thanks, Zaia, I’m still thinking of a good revenge name for you, payback for earlier – don’t think you’re off the hook!” she says, making me chuckle.

“I’ll be waiting!” I reply as we step back, and I look down at Sia in her gorgeous pastel pink dress. “Oh, wow Mommy, you look beautiful,” Sia says, cupping her cheeks. I crouch down and hug her gently. “So do you, my beautiful princess.”
