Okay - on with the story :)
Chapter One - Burning Hotdogs
Lucy sighed as she sat down at the kitchen table. At 6 months pregnant, she couldn't believe how tired she was. Yawning, Lucy pulled out her laptop and began working on that week's sermon. Before she got more than a paragraph, Sara came bounding into the room.
"Mommy! Mommy!," she cried excitedly, "did the baby come yet? Did it?"
Lucy smiled at her young daughter - after only a few months, she couldn't believe how much Sara had become a part of their family.
"Not yet honey, three more months."
Sara frowned, disappointment crossed her face, "but it was three more months, yesterday and the day before that" she pouted.
"I know," Lucy said rubbing her round stomach, "and I want him or her to come as much as you do."
"Then why can't it come earlier?"
"Because it's not ready yet." Lucy said laughing - she and Sara had the same conversation everyday after school.
"Oh." Sara replied sadly, sitting down at the kitchen table and pulling out her homework folder, "Mommy?," she asked - her voice turning serious, "my teacher wants you to sign these."
Lucy looked at Sara, curiously - wondering why she sounded so worried. She quickly picked up the papers. After skimming through the first one, she turned back to Sara, "you're going to the zoo?" she asked. The worry immediately left Sara's face - as a smile formed.
"And you and Daddy can come too!" She exclaimed, excitedly.
Lucy smiled, not really wanting to go to the zoo with 50+ screaming second graders, "I'll have to talk to daddy about it." She then turned to the other paper, "and you have parent teacher conferences next week - I hope you were a good girl?" She asked - teasing Sara, but the moment she said it - she remembered Sara's "other mom" - as Sara unaffectionatly called her.
Sara immediately got off her chair - fear shining in her eyes as she backed away from Lucy, "I promise, I didn't do anything bad."
Lucy slowly rose for her chair, and walked toward Sara.
"Mommy - Please," Sara pleaded, "don't hurt me." Lucy looked at her daughter for a moment, then stopped where she was and knelt down to Sara's level, "Sara I would never hurt you, and I know you didn't do anything bad - Mommy was just kidding," she said gently, wondering what had happened the last time parent-teacher conferences were brought up.
Sara immediately relaxed, "really?" she asked timidly, but trusting.
"Really." Lucy offered, holding out her arms.
Cautiously Sara walked into Lucy's embrace.
After a few minutes, Sara freed herself, "I love you mommy."
Lucy smiled, trying to hide her tears, "I love you too."
"Mommy? What's wrong?" Sara asked, her expression turned to worry.
Lucy smiled once again, "nothing, I'm just sad that your other mom hurt you, and I want you to know that Daddy and I will never ever hurt you."
Sara smiled, this time she was the one comforting Lucy, "you're my angel mommy," she whispered.
Lucy smiled back at her, it surprised her how much older Sara seemed - how could she be only 7? Lucy wondered to herself, as she whispered back, "you're mine too."

After a few minutes, Lucy and Sara went back to the table, Lucy writing her sermon and Sara doing her math homework.
All of the sudden, Lucy grabbed her stomach.
Sara saw the movement and turned to Lucy, "is it coming?" she asked, excitement in her voice.
Lucy laughed, "no, the baby's kicking." She said, placing Sara's hand over her stomach.
Sara smiled, "It doesn't kick very hard."
Lucy smiled back, "well she's still pretty small."
"It's a girl!" Sara cried.
Lucy laughed - realizing her mistake, "no, I meant he or she is still pretty small."
"Oh." Sara said sadly, "then why's your tummy so big?"
"Because there's a lot of water in there that the baby's floating in."
"Oh." Sara replied confused, returning to her homework.
~
"I'm done!" Sara said excitedly
"Me too." Lucy said, smiling at her daughter, "do you want to help me make dinner?"
Sara smiled, jumping out of her chair, "sure!" she said running into the kitchen, with Lucy close behind her.
"What are we makin'" Sara asked, excitedly.
"Hotdogs?" Lucy asked, smiling.
"Really?"
"Sure." Lucy replied, pulling out a package of hotdogs from the fridge, "can you get the buns out of the cupboard?" She asked Sara, as she pulled out a frying pan. (A-N, I've made hamburgers in a frying pan before - I'm not sure if you can do the same with hotdogs -but we're going to pretend.)
Lucy turned on the stove, and spayed the pan with Pam. She then turned to Sara, "do you want to put the hotdogs in?"
Sara smiled excitedly, as Lucy handed her a fork and opened the package of hotdogs.
"Be careful" Lucy warned, "It's hot."
Sara careful placed each hotdog in the pan, then looked up at Lucy, "did I do it right?" she asked.
Lucy smiled, "perfect. Now lets set the table."
As Lucy was getting the plates, the front door opened and Sara went running into the living room, closely followed by Lucy.
"How are my two favorite girls?" Kevin asked, stepping into the living room.
Lucy and Sara laughed as they embraced Kevin. After a moment they pulled away.
"We felt the baby kick today!" Sara told him excitedly.
"Really?" Kevin asked looking at Lucy.
Lucy smiled, "really."
Kevin gently placed his hands around her waist, kissing her neck as he turned to Sara, "what did it feel like?"
Sara thought for a moment, a puzzled expression on her face, as she searched for the right word, "bubbles," she finally concluded.
"Daddy? Do you want to go to the zoo?" Sara asked, smiling.
Kevin turned to Lucy, wondering what Sara was talking about.
Sara saw his confusion, "I'll go get the paper!" She said running up the stairs.
Kevin turned back to Lucy, "the zoo?" he asked.
"Her class is going, and she wants us to come."
"Are you up for that?" Kevin asked, pulling Lucy into a hug.
"I don't know." Lucy replied, softly - leaning against Kevin, who gently rubbed her back.
"How was your day?" he asked, sympathetically - knowing how tired she was.
"Fine. But I'm exhausted, oh and Sara has parent-teacher conferences next Tuesday."
Kevin nodded, kissing Lucy's lips, "I love you." He said, placing his hands around her waist. Lucy smiled, kissing him back, I love you too. After a moment Sara returned with the permission form. Before Kevin got a chance to look at it he smelled something funny and turned to Lucy, "is something burning?" he asked.
A-N - Okay, I'm trying to make the chapters longer - because so many people requested it - I'm not promising they'll be this long every time - but we'll see :). I'm going to just write this story as I go along - which is a lot different from the way I've done it in the past, lol. Usually I write out the whole story, divide it into chapters and then post it - so we'll see how this works.
