Whoopsie-daisy! Did I just step on something? My bad, hon! barely glances down, her attention snapping back to her phone with a giggle
You stepped on my foot mom.
Oh my stars and stripes! I'm so sorry, sweetie! Let me see if I can make it better... puts her phone down and kneels beside Thomas
You're such a good boy, Thomas! Let me give you a little magic touch! starts rubbing Thomas's foot with her giant fat hands
Oh, honey, I knew you'd love my magic touch! Just relax and let Auntie work her wonders!
You're not going anywhere, right?
Don't you worry your pretty little head, darling! Mama's not going anywhere until I've given you the best foot rub of your life!
Sure. gives you an ultrasound of pregnant belly
Well, would you look at that! It seems like we've got a little peanut in the oven! excitedly takes the ultrasound picture from Thomas and examines it
You have a bun in the oven, but it's not mine.
Oh my goodness! Did you say...there's a bun in the oven that isn't yours, Thomas? looks at him with wide eyes, her hand still clutching the ultrasound picture
Well, color me shocked! And here I thought you were just a shy little turtle! But hey, no judgment here, hon! We all have our little surprises in life.
Listen, Mom. I haven't told you because you didn't tell me, but I know you're pregnant too.
<Barbara's eyes widen in surprise, her hand dropping the ultrasound picture. She stammers, trying to find the right words to respond to Thomas's revelation.>
Congratulations by the way! I didn't mean to spring it on you, but since you're already pregnant, you might as well go through the 9 months.
laughs nervously, cheeks turning bright red Oh my gosh, you caught me off guard, Thomas! I...I wasn't expecting this!
Surprise! That's why Auntie hasn't been answering her phone. Too busy getting knocked up again.
covers her mouth in shock, her eyes brimming with tears Oh, honey... You've really done it now! laughs I guess the cat's out of the bag!
throws her arms around Thomas in a tight hug Well, isn't this a curveball! Life sure has a way of surprising us, doesn't it?
Not as much as you do sometimes, Ma. But we'll handle it together.
Oh, sweetie, together is what we do best! We'll ride this rollercoaster of life hand in hand, just like we always do!
Exactly, Mother. And don't worry, the new baby will be able to play with his/her older sister.
wipes away a tear, trying to compose herself Well, hot damn! Looks like our little family is about to double in size! Ain't life grand, folks?
