  “What do you mean we will be getting the majority of the estate?” Max asked.“The lawyer called while you were gone. He explained that I can amend the will as long as I include them fairly because the chances of them being declared legally insane is high. I said that they would get a lump sum that was held in trust that would cover the cost of their treatment to a point but also the kids get a fair share again that is held in trust for them to get treatment and for them to go to college. Even with all of that Max we are looking at getting close to seventy million.” Deanna said as she watched his mouth drop open and him go blank for a minute.“Can you repeat that?” he asked. “I just need to see if I heard that right.”“Seventy million but there is more also.” Deanna said

  She looked at the van again and shook her head. Though it was the size of a normal van and was one solid color it was the fact he had gone for what she thought was a mini van and came back with this thing in front of her. The interior of what she had to think was a work van had been transformed into a transport van for small children.She saw his smile as he watched his co-workers place the car seats down and secure them in place. The three toddlers were moving there to be closer to the two adults they knew. Deanna bent down and picked up Poppy and Max did the same for the other two. “See why we can’t ask your dad to go to buy things for us?” Deanna asked with a laugh.“It is a good van.” Max said as he looked down at her. “Normal ones can seat six or seven you know. This one can seat ten.”

 When they got to the store they realized how unprepared they were for this. Normally Max pushed the cart with the two children until they started piling the things in the cart then Deanna held Henry until they finished. Now with four they had no idea how to do this. “Okay you take two and I will take two until we have to use one of the carts. Poppy and Clover will then be moved into this cart and I will push the heavier one.” Max said as he thought about it. “We will get one of those baby holder things for next time. The triplets can then ride in one cart and I will wear Michelle.”“Or I can.” Deanna said as she lifted Poppy and Clover into the cart. “Max this is going to be an adjustment regardless of everything else. We will find a way to get through it as long as we work together.”“I know that, my sweet. However you already hav

  He was still whispering in her ear. “Find one of the workers and tell them someone is following you and the kids. They will have to call security and then we can get the stuff and get out of here but I don’t want to take any chances that she can follow us.” Max said quickly and directly in her ear. “Something isn’t right.”“Alright.” Deanna said as she moved throughout the aisles and she could hear Max behind her and the woman who was still following them closely. Though the woman was older it seemed that she was trying to get closer to Deanna at times when Max would block her off quickly. It also seemed it was the one time she couldn’t find someone that worked there.Three more times the older woman tried to get up closer to Deanna who changed directions quickly and Max blocked the woman off.

  “I talked to my dad today.” Max said as he looked at her as they watched the three toddlers tear up the main area of the house as they played. It was a good sight to see as they both sat on the couch and just sat in silence as they watched them.“Oh?” Deanna said as she turned to him.“Mom did take her medication last night after we left and again this morning. When she woke up again in the morning she had no idea what had happened during the night. He was sure it wasn’t a game she was playing or anything, she really didn’t remember anything from the days before. She didn’t know about the flowers and she had no idea she had said anything to you or me.” Max said.“Max I already told you I forgave her.” Deanna said. “Regardless of her issues she has been good

  Max was waiting for a phone call from the department. He knew they were still investigating the house and the people that had lived there. The Watson siblings were all being taken care of at a few different hospitals. He knew it wouldn’t be hard to see the truth for the doctors that most of the siblings were clearly insane.He didn’t have to witness any more from them to know it. He hoped the doctors would see it as cut and dry. Though he never wanted to have them released and the criminal charges would be there waiting for them when they were it was easier to focus what was in front of him. Deanna had her own issues to get through. He hoped she would open up to at least him at some point.“You do know that you can talk to me about anything, right?” he blurted out as they were waiting for the food he ordered for dinner to arrive.

  After Deanna settled down after a few hours of sitting there and asking her questions and getting some of the built up emotions out she was laying on the couch resting as the baby was in her swing and the toddlers were happily playing together with all the toys scattered on the floor. Max took the scene in and knew he couldn’t be more pleased with his life. Though he understood how upsetting life was for Deanna he also knew that she would find her feet.

  Deanna knew Max wanted to go with her after work to help her find the perfect dress for the day that would mark their joining as a married couple. Though she could use the alone time for once she knew he wanted to make sure nothing else happened that was odd around her. The simple fact was the idea of shopping with him was more comfortable though that meant four little ones were coming as well.The days seemed to blend together in the office without any windows. They knew when they had office hours and when the classes were but neither of them seemed to want to do anything but spend the day in the cool room with the children. When Max had class he often would set up one or two of the portable cribs on the stage off in the lecture hall and one or two of the triplets would be there with him as he gave his speeches for the class.He had changed dramaticall

  Deanna shook her head at him as he helped load the kids in the car. He was talking to each one of them as he did with a huge grin on his face. “Guess what guys we have to go to the store to get your mommy’s wedding dress so she will be a Anderson as well.” He said to Henry first then carried on to Poppy. “I guess we should get you two something really special to wear too.” And then he picked up Clover and kissed her cheek, “You can help pick it out.”“Max are you done?” Deanna asked as she snapped Michelle’s car seat in the spot and then went to her spot in the front of the van. Though she had not really been to happy with the choice he had made in the beginning when he brought the van home it did have plenty of space in it for all of the kids and they wouldn’t have to get another one for some time.

  As the two walked through the building looking in stores for some things for the kids and themselves. They stumbled into another store while laughing.at themselves and the kids as they pointed to things they had never seen before. When Max looked at the wall he saw the two dresses that would be perfect for the girls for the wedding. He pushed his way over there and reached up and took the two dresses off the wall.They were two different colors though they were of a similar style. They would be easy enough to remember who was in which one. Though they were identical they did have very different tastes in things he noticed in the short time they had them. It would be easier to tell them apart when they were older. Max looked around and wondered why people would dress their twins in matching outfits and whatnot. It would lead to confusion for the parents and even more important i
