I Have to Get Out - Brooke Hudson

I have to get out of this town.

I cant stay here. I just have to get out.

Toddlers - Brooke Hudson

D11 Ra R2

Today, my darling little twins Eva and Emery grew into toddlers!

We have three toddlers now!
I've spoken to James about moving, I dont think its safe to be raising our kids in a house thats joined to the police station. He agreed, but said we would have to wait until after the new Mayor was elected because we would need funding to build a new station from the new council. Fair enough, but I'm not happy. The part of the station that we live in is too small, and one room is full of explosives and weapons, thats not good with kids around the joint.

I cant wait for the new Mayor to be elected so we can get out of here. I know I'm runing for the job but really, my hearts not in it, I'd rather be at home with my kids. I'm quite happy taking a council position instead.

I'm a Parent - Brooke Hudson

I couldnt believe it. Not half an hour after James left for work and little Daphne arrives.

I'm not sure if I was more worried about being alone, or becoming a parent! Thats all passed now though. All I have to do is look into her eyes and I know everything is ok.

We bought a crib and change table, on James' small salary thats pretty much all we could afford at the moment. I'm afraid to say it but I think I'm going to have to get a job. I started a small vegi patch so we can grow our own food, at least we wont have to worry about groceries anymore, but we still need money to buy necessities - clothes, toys for Daphne, a dining table. James wants me to hold off on getting a job, he says everything will be fine if we just wait it out. He thinks he's going to get a promotion soon. Being the only police officer in the entire district must be hard on him though, even if the only crime ever reported in Ashby Falls was because of me.

For now, I'm happy being a stay at home mother, but if James ever thinks we could use some extra cash, I'll be jumping right in.
