Epilogue
Colton's POV
Hannah, Isaac and I were on our way to the hospital. They were both almost four, and they were getting ready to meet their baby sister, Skylar Beth. It was a quiet car ride, and then the little voices piped up from the backseat.
"Daddy, where we going?" I smiled, looking back at Hannah.
"We're going to see mommy, and you're going to get to meet baby Skylar." Then Isaac spoke up.
"But I wanted a brother! Girls don't like cars like I do!" Hannah humphed.
"Cars are boring! Dolls and animals are more fun!" Isaac laughed.
"Yeah, if the animals are dinosaurs or bears! Cats and pandas are boring! You can't play anything fun with them!" I rolled my eyes.
"Hey, be nice, okay? I don't think mommy wants you guys to be fighting when you see her. Do you?" They looked at me, and then each other.
"No. I'm sorry." They said at the same time, looking at each other and laughing. I chuckled too.
"Hey, and you guys might see Aunt Grace or Uncle Joel while we're here." Isaac perked up.
"Will Jude and Joran be here?" I shrugged, turning into the parking lot.
"Maybe. Now remember, behave. No running and yelling, okay?" They nodded, taking each other's hands, and Hannah took mine. We went inside, headed up, and then on the right floor, went to the desk.
"Hello. Who are you here to see?" I opened my mouth, and Hannah piped up.
"We're going to see our mama and meet our baby sister!" She smiled at Hannah, and looked at me.
"Last name?" I smiled at the kids.
"Dixon." She nodded, and got a sheet of paper.
"Are you related to her?" I nodded.
"Yes. I'm her husband, Michael." She nodded, and gave the kids stickers with the time on them.
"Enjoy meeting your sister!" She waved at the kids, and they waved back as we headed down the hall. We got to her room, and I let Isaac knock.
"Come in!" I heard her call, and I opened the door. Sure enough, Grace, Courtney, Luke, Jude, and Phoenix were in the room as well, and Grace had Skylar.
"Mama!" Hannah went over, and tried to reach her cheek. Hope leaned down, giving her a kiss.
"Hey, baby girl. You ready to meet your sister?" She nodded, and Grace came over, sitting on the sofa, and she climbed up.
"Hello, Skylar! I'm your sister, Hannah." Isaac climbed up on Grace's other side.
"And I'm Isaac. Hannah is my twin sister." He leaned over, giving Skylar a kiss on her head. I went over to Hope.
"Hey, beautiful." She smiled at me, kissing me on the cheek.
"Hey you. Did the kids behave for you?" I looked at them, cooing over Skylar.
"They did okay. Couple arguments about toys, and Isaac beheaded another doll." She chuckled.
"Sounds like Joel when I was about six. He used to do that to my rag doll, and I'd hit him, and then I'd get in trouble." Luke chuckled.
"You loved that doll. Mum could never convince you to give it up." She chuckled.
"No. I remember that. When it finally fell apart, I cried almost the whole day." Luke smiled.
"And then Joel gave you the rag dog mum had made for him. Then, you two pretty much became best friends." Skylar started crying, and Hope took her back. Luke, Courtney, Grace, and the boys had to head on, since there was a meeting about another tour in a half hour. The kids fell asleep on the sofa, and Skylar fell asleep after she ate. Quiet. Hope kissed me again after Skylar was put back in her bassinet.
"So, what do you think? Number four in a couple more years?" I chuckled.
"How about we wait a couple years, and you can ask me again?" She laughed quietly, and I kissed her. God certainly had blessed us. I wasn't sure how much better life could get. I had a beautiful wife, three sweet children, and a successful music career. I knew God could take any of it at any moment, but for now, I was simply happy with the way things were. I knew that whatever the next chapter of our life would bring, God knew what he was doing. All we had to do was let him take the driver's seat, and no matter what happened, he was still good, and he still loved us.
