Faith continued to help out with Hailey and Isabel. They were continuing to grow bigger and soon enough they were off to kindergarden. They would have fun playing with all the kids and sharing a class room with her cousins. She would be in Ms. Amy’s class and would be with Janell, Eli and Gloria’s daughter and Krista, Grace’s 1st daughter. They were to become best friends. On their first day of school, their mom Stacie declared to the family that she was pregnant! She has going to have twins again! 2 more girls, she was going to name them Jenna and Kelsi.

She was having a harder pregnancy than last time, but since she was used to being so big, she would never expect to only get how big she is when she is 5 months pregnant in a single child pregnancy.

1 month pregnant and she was imagining not being this small until 8 months were over. She wanted Kelsi and Jenna out now though. Lina was growing old and was wondering if maybe it was time to visit her relatives so that they got to see her before she was gone. She went to see Evan, Darcy’s new son and all Eli’s kids.

After 7 more long months of a growing tummy, Stacie went into contractions one sunday night. They were very far apart and didn’t last long but slowly they sped up. By the next morning she had 2 new baby girls named Jenna and Kelsi.

The parents were tired and exhausted and this was just the start. The girls grew up fast. Before Stacie and Chase knew it, they were walking, talking, and pooping.

Hey had even flooded the bathroom playing with the pipes. They were little daredevils but when Stacie got them a zylaphone, they were all out. They loved to play music. And they slept through almost anything, even when Lina died!

Hailey and Isabel were terribly disturbed by the death. They cried and cried and cried. They tried not as hard in school and got behind. They eventually got back to her normal life but Lina was the grandma that was nice, kind and taught them to walk and talk and potty trained them. She wanted to help as much as she could before she died so that stacie and Chase could tell them that their grandma taught them to walk talk and poop.

Editorial Note: Lina was one of the best founder spouses I’ve ever seen. When I would let her be she would be with her kids or grandkids. She was lovely.
