jackie returns with her daughter and shopping

i approach the next paddock and whistle the brood mares trot over

i look them over
1. layiah
2. Link (colt of layiahs)
3. Olympic Paint
4. Sasha
5. Tanya (filly of Trace)
6. Trace
7. Delly
8. Donetta

Bo: "don't I even get a hello?"

I spin away from the mares
"BO hello, I didnt hear you drive up. Bo this is my daughter Tabitha, i was just showing her a few of the horses"
I walked over to him Rosey came barrelling out barking madly she lept in front of me
i laughed and lent down and scooped her up
"hush now" i said and she stopped at once

Bo: "hi tabitha"
Tabs: "hi"
Cleo and Dingo: we bark but hush after we get his scent
Tabs: I pick up Chaquita
Bo: "its very nice to meet you"
Tabs: "nice to meet you to" I say smiling (bo is the name of best friend/crush ever)
Bo: "well I got my bag in the car and you to help out" I say to her

I groan and keel a little
"I think i need to sit down" i put rosy on the ground
and begin to walk to the house not even reaching the steps my water breaks
"Its about time you two" i groaned and reached the staris leading to the varanda
"I.........agah........damn kid move you foot" i pant between the pain of a foot tangled with the botton of my ribs and the first contraction

BO: I rush over to her "are you going to have them here or the hospital?"

When the foot was moved and the contraction had stopped i stood and made my way to the door
"Hospital of course" i groaned

another wave of pain hit and i nearly collapsed.
"I need my hospital bags ........ near the front door........... and if i dont leave soon they will be born here they are on their way fast" i pant

It was already too late so i grab the bags and rushed you up to your room
Tabs: I stay outside with the dogs

"I.........i....cant have them.....here.........what if something.........goes.............wrong" i pant laying down on my bed
I groan and begin to push

Bo: "don't worry the hospital is on their way but if anything goes wrong I'll be here to help"

Contraction after contraction grips my body and i let my self go to my instinct i push and push until i have birthed a son and few minutes after he has entered the world his sister joins him.
I lay back until i have to expel the afterbirth. After that is done i look up at Bo cradling towel wrapped bundles.

Dr Carlise: i race up the stairs and check jackie over, then the twins. I cut the umbilical cords. and then i smiled at jackie
"Your all fine" i smiled and left the couple and the twins promising there was no need for the hospital and that i would check in later.

Jackie: i look at Bo
" he will be Mark and she will be Imogen." i sigh and smiled.

BOY: Mark
GIRL: Imogen

mark Left imogen right

Imogen right mark left

Imogen

Bo: I smiled "those are wonderful names' I say as I hold Mark

Bear:i play

Mark: i gurgle
Jackie: I sit up slowly and pick up imogen and she smiles at me.

Bo: I smile at them and look at you
Tabs: I let the dogs play and go get charlie and groom him and tack him then take him out to the back pasture and ride but only a trot

i smiled at the baby in my arms
"Im glad you are both finally here little one i dont think my insides could take much more kicking" i sighed. i looked out the window and saw tabitha riding the chestnut gelding
"I hope shes careful"

Tabs: I carefully urge him on into a lope
Bo: "look like it"
Dingo: I bark at her and run into the horse pasture where the rest of her horses are

Bear:I run into the Pasture

after a few days and another doctors appointment im up and moving around i set the twins up where ever i have to work at the time and they settle most easily in the barn. i go about my work feeding and working horses in the round pen and the arena, always from the ground. i sigh
"This is work that needs a rider for." Then i have an idea
"TABITHA" I call down the paddock to her horses knowing she would be there

Tabs: I slow him down "yeah?"
Dingo: I bark at her
Cleo: I watch out for horses feet
(do i play those horses?)

Bear:I sit off to the side

( yeh less i gotta do)

"You had much riding experience?" i asked

Tabs: "not really I'm scared to death to gallop, and I can barley lope"

"Good you can learn as you go. i still cant ride yet so you can excercise the horses" i smiled and headed to the stable
"Come on" i called
