The caravan of buses had been underway for about forty-five minutes when the back door opened. "Me pee pee big gurl." Zoe said. "That's right my big girl, this way." Kaitlyn said pointing towards the bathroom, following her without looking to see who was watching. She closed the door. "Isaac we need a a step stool for Zoe. Oh boy you're a big girl." Kaitlyn said lifting her. "What hun?" Isaac asked opening the door. "We need a step stool for Zoe, she's getting too big for me to lift is all." Kaitlyn said. "Then don't lift her hun. Hey my girls." Isaac said kissing his daughters then his wife. "Why are you all smiles?" she asked. "I didn't know I was." he answered. "It so nice to see you finally relaxed. You've had a hard month getting ready for this and worrying about us." Kaitlyn said. "I'm still worried about you girls but we're on the road at least." Isaac said kissing her again. "Can I tell you something?" she asked. "Sure hun anything." Isaac said searching her eyes. "I love your smile. It warms my heart when I see it." Kaitlyn said kissing him sweetly. "I'll try to do it more often, which shouldn't be too hard as long as I'm around you." Isaac said wrapping his arms around her. "You're going to need longer arms before long." Kaitlyn teased. "Oh no I already figured that one out. See." Isaac said moving to her back and wrapping his arms, one above and one below her belly and hugging her tight. "You don't even feel pregnant this way." he said as Kaitlyn helped Zoe get toilet paper. "Me done" Zoe said and Isaac lifted her off as Kaitlyn bent down to help her adjust her clothes. "My turn. Isaac help her wash her hands please." Kaitlyn said as she peed then joined them at the sink. "My bubble maker." Kaitlyn said as Zoe put her bubbles on Kaitlyn's hands. "Why thank you ma'am." Kaitlyn said kissing Zoe's head and rinsing her hands. "Finish up" she said turning off the water and grabbing a towel drying both of their hands. "Done. Let's get something for the babies to eat now." Kaitlyn said as Zoe marched to the fridge and pulled out a snack plate and took it to the table. "Maddy eat." she said proudly. "Wow I'm not to keen on this heads down." Kaitlyn said. "What is it Kaitlyn?" Isaac asked turning to face her. "There's just a constant pressure now. Like when we make love." she explained a smile coming to her face and a twinkle in her eye. "Hey that's my job." Isaac complained. "Well this is a result of your handiwork Isaac." she laughed turning red. "Kaitlyn you're blushing." he said as she laid her head on his shoulder. "I was just remembering the first time." she whispered. "What's the secret?" Grampa said. "Grampa? Oh Grampa how wonderful. I was missing you so." Kaitlyn cried. "No tears baby girl. This husband of yours hounded me for the past three weeks, relentless that boy of yours. I finally said yes. He thinks you need an old coot around to pester you." Grampa said hugging her. "I do Grampa. You help me keep it together at times. I don't know what I'd do without you. And now I won't have to figure it out. Thanks Isaac." she cried. "You heard him no tears. You go sit down and eat while I make you a shake." Isaac said as Grampa walked her to the table. "Thanks Zoe, you're my big girl." Kaitlyn said stroking her head then sitting. Grampa sat by her side, lifting Zoe to his lap. "Maddy eat." Zoe said. "That's right Maddy, Lucy, Jane eat." Kaitlyn acknowledged. After her snack she went back to bed and Grampa brought the checker board. They played and talked and were joined by Jessy and Chele with the next hourly snack. "You play him while I eat maybe you can give him some competition." Kaitlyn said. Zoe returned with a book, sitting next to Kaitlyn reading to the babies, complete with showing them the pictures. "Get Isaac with a camera." Kaitlyn whispered pushing at Chele who headed out. Isaac and Mom appeared in the doorway. Isaac clicked away as Zoe read and showed the pictures to Kaitlyn's belly. When Zoe was done she laid beside the babies and sang rubbing Kaitlyn's belly. "Thank you Zoe. They're all happy now knowing you love them. Can I have a hug?" Kaitlyn asked. "Me sissy." Zoe said hugging Kaitlyn. "My special sister." Kaitlyn said kissing the top of Zoe's head as one of the babies kicked. "Hey no kick me." Zoe said. "That would be Lucy trying to get you attention." Knowing Jane and Lucy were heads down now, Zoe bent over so her head was down, "No no no Lucy." she said rubbing the bottom of Kaitlyn's belly. "She's right here." Kaitlyn said moving Zoe's hand. "Okay Lucy?" Zoe asked as Zac snuck around Isaac. "That's my baby." Zac said. "Lucy kick me" Zoe said. "Well I never." Zac laughed "Jessy's ignoring her that's why." Zac said. "Oh she doesn't mind my playing with Grampa do you Lucy?" Jessy said rubbing Lucy. "See Zac she's not jealous, you are." Jessy said leaning to kiss him. "I want in too." Taylor said making his way past Isaac and sitting on the bed by his mother. "Lucy kick me" Zoe said. "Let me see. No bruises. She can play on Zac's team" Tay teased. And the room broke out in laughter as the bus slowed. "Don't you listen to Uncle Taylor. You can kiss his ass once you get out and get bigger. Mommy will hold him for you." Kaitlyn said glaring at Taylor. "Oh Lucy baby I didn't mean anything by it. I love you and you'll be a graceful ballerina like Mommy someday. You were probably just practicing your dance steps. Weren't you?" Taylor said caressing Kaitlyn's belly, leaning to kiss Lucy. "I'm sorry Mommy." he said kissing Kaitlyn on the cheek. "Why we stopping?" she asked. "Looks like a station, pit stop everyone." Isaac said and the room emptied. "Me Grampapa" Zoe asked. "Oh my precious baby, come on let me spoil you. I'm glad I came." Grampa said. "Me too Grampa." Kaitlyn said. "Me too Daddy" Mom said. "Thanks for insisting Isaac." Grampa said. "No, thanks for loving my Kaitlyn so. I mean it, Thanks Grampa" Isaac said hugging him. "Kaitlyn you coming?" Mom asked. "No Mom I have everything I need here, I'll just rest, you both go and enjoy." Kaitlyn said curling stroking her belly and closing her eyes. "Come on son." Mom said. "I hate to leave her." Isaac said. "She needs her rest Isaac." Mom insisted hanging the naptime sign on the door knob. The family hit the bathrooms, snack bar, and gift shop. "Isaac hey man, Theresa one of Kaitlyn's fans, she chats with her all the time. Remember I told you about the chick that started singing to Maddy that day. This is her." Ash introduced. They all chatted and Isaac finally led her onto the bus, "Kaitlyn, hun? Kaitlyn someone wants to meet you in person hun." Isaac said. "What babe?" she said turning to see the girl in the doorway crying. "Hey I don't look that bad do I?" Kaitlyn asked. "Oh I can't believe I'm meeting you finally and the babies. No Kaitlyn you're beautiful. I'm sorry to wake you but I had to tell you how much we all love you and the girls." Theresa said. "You're a chat bud aren't you?" Kaitlyn asked sitting up patting the bed by Isaac. "Yeah I'm Theresa." she answered coming close. "Maddy's friend." Kaitlyn beamed hugging her. "God I'm so glad I found you guys and that he let me come see you. Umm I made you this." Theresa said fighting the tears. "It's beautiful. The girls will love it. Thanks for thinking of them. You want to meet them?" Kaitlyn asked. As she nodded yes, Kaitlyn took her hand placing it on each baby and introducing them. "Here Theresa give me your camera." Isaac said. "Thank you." she cried handing him her camera and Isaac took pictures of the awe in her eyes as she met Maddy and her sisters. She sat next to Kaitlyn for a picture then said her goodbyes. "I didn't mean for you to wake up but I had to meet you. I was going to keep following you until I did. Now I'll be home in time to chat at 7 with you." Theresa said. "Isaac honey get her the page directions. Theresa I've set up a tour page for the girls, so when they grow up they'll know. Would you consider writing to them and letting them know what it was like meeting them and how you decided on this saying and how you made it. You know that kind of stuff?" Kaitlyn asked. "If you don't want it posted for everyone to read, there's instructions on how to do that too. Don't let that stop you from telling the girls." Kaitlyn explained. "Oh I'd love to tell the whole world, I'll stop and get the pictures developed at the One Hour place and scan them and put them on as soon as I get home. God Bless you Kaitlyn, talk to you later." Theresa said as she left. "I love you Kaitlyn, Jane, Lucy, Maddy." Isaac said escorting Theresa out. "That was nice." Kaitlyn said rubbing her belly and going back to sleep. "Man she's asleep already, sorry I won't wake her up again. Come on in but be quiet." Isaac said to two other fans. They sat quietly at Kaitlyn's side and Isaac clicked pictures. "One more for Kaitlyn." he said grabbing his camera. "I'm really sorry but it's important she sleep." he said escorting her out and giving her sheets on the girls' page. A half hour later the buses were back on the interstate heading east.
