Ch. 3 - Teddy's Bday Preparation

           Before I can answer, Christian is on top of me kissing me passionately. I return his kiss with the same fervor of passion. He quickly peels off both of our clothes. He pulls my legs apart with his legs and thrusts inside of me. My hips meet his as we both move as one. My body begins to clench. We are looking into each other’s eye with heated desire. I come all around him my eyes never leaving his. He combusts and lets out his release at the same time screaming my name.

            We hold each other for a little while. Outside our bedroom, we hear the familiar bitter batter of little feet. “Mommy, Daddy!” Teddy squeals. Christian opens the door and picks up Teddy. He places Teddy between us. At the same time we say, “Happy birthday!” Teddy’s face lights up. He says in his small voice,”cake, toys, party.” I say enthusiastically, “Yes Teddy it is party time.”

            Christian asks Teddy, “Do you want to see your present now?” Teddy says, “Yes, daddy.” I look over at Christian quizzically. He says to me, “What?” “No breakfast?” I question him. “After his present,” Christian tells me. “Well Mr. Grey, I believe it is another first.” “Mrs. Grey, I think you are correct. I do love first’s.” He just winks at me and I start to giggle. “How I love that sound, Mrs. Grey.”

             We walk to the outside room with Teddy. Teddy is speechless when he sees the train set. All he can do is touch it and look at us. All of a sudden, he runs over to us and hugs us both and says, “I love you.” Christian and I start to cry.

             The train set fills more than the room. The tracks are made of a dark wood. There are trains of all the primary colors on the train track. They are made of tin plated steel, metal chassis, and heavy motors which are solar powered.

             There are various small miniature villages. One village captures my eye which is a small quaint town which looks like the place in England where we went for our honeymoon.  I notice another one which is a moorings dock with a boat on it and a few fishermen fishing from the shoreline. It is adjacent to a little village consisting of cozy cottages with flower lined paths illuminated by lamplights that glow.

             While Teddy and Christian are playing with the train set, Mrs. Taylor makes us breakfast. I help by placing the plates, silverware, and cups on the counter. Once it is done, I call them over to the kitchen. They both just look at me with a disappointment in their eyes as if they want to keep playing. I will never understand boys and their toys.

             After breakfast I take a shower and get dressed quickly so Christian can also freshen up for the fun day ahead of us.

             Mia, Kate, Grace, and Carla arrive around 10 am. They help me and Gail decorate the house with Thomas the Train theme. Elliot, Ethan, Carrick, and Ray come over around 11 am. All the boys are playing with the train set. Teddy is having so much fun with them. I take a picture of them all together playing.

            Two hours pass by and we are all done. Even the cake arrived on time. We all have an hour to get ready. The family leaves to get ready so they can get back in time for the party. While I get ready, Christian gives Teddy a bath and dresses him. Teddy is dressed like a train conductor. Once I am done, I watch Teddy so Christian can get ready.
