Sarah's point of view
Sunlight peeps through the windows giving my bedroom a somewhat celestial glow. Half asleep, I reach out to touch my beloved husband's soft skin. Kyle's side of the
bed is empty creating a huge hole in my heart. Distraught, I fear that something bad has happened to Kyle. Still "messed up" from the night before, I have unfinished
business with Reese. I will never feel complete without him inside of me. It is all of my fault for chasing him away in the first place. Kyle enters the room just as when I
am about to have an emotional breakdown. He walks toward me carrying a tray full of delicious food. "Good morning, love" Kyle addresses me in a sexy seductive
voice. Carefully, he places the tray right in front of me and I start gobbling down food. Amused, Kyle just stands still watching me eat expecting to receive a thank you.
"I thank you for cooking me breakfast" grateful, I express with a hug. "No problem, it is Mothers' Day" he reminds me. Today is Mother's day? OH, how I can forget
about this special holiday. I love being a mother even though my children take me for granted sometimes. "Happy Mothers' Day, Mommy" Joyful, Kitty yells running into
the bedroom. Kyle pulls Kitty into a very tight embrace in which puts a smile upon my face. Our daughter, Kitty Riley Reese is only just two years old. She has my nose,
my mouth and Kyle's warm kind blue eyes. Deep chocolate brown curls bounce about Kitty's shoulders as she runs into my arms. Three years ago, my beloved husband
Kyle and I were married on July 4, 2009. I was afflicted with Lymphoma and four months pregnant with Kitty at the time of the wedding. Thankfully, Kitty was born
healthy six months later on December 20, 2009. I endured chemotherapy immediately days following Kitty's birth and my family never left my side. Besides giving birth,
undergoing chemotherapy was a really painful process. Right now I am in remission and learning to enjoy my life by living life to its fullest. Kitty crawls into the bed and
cuddles up next to me underneath the bed covers in the present time. "Mommy, I drew a picture" she smiles showing me a picture that displays her and me building a
sandcastle at the beach. I remember the last time I drew a picture, I landed myself in the Pasadena Mental Hospital. "Kit, you drew a picture of us and I love it"
delighted, I praise her. Kitty hugs me as a way to express her gratitude and my heart receives her love. Carrying a bouquet of red roses, John enters the room and
approaches me with tears in his eyes. "Happy Mothers' Day, Mom, I love you" emotional, John sobs giving me the roses and a card. "You are the best mother in the
whole entire world. Love always your children, John and Kitty" crying, I read inside the by Derek, Cameron enters the room carrying my six month old son whose name
is Chance. Carefully, Cameron places Chance into my arms. Chance cooes making everyone including me laugh. He has Down Syndrome, but I love him anyway. He has
brought so much joy into my life. Our lives crossed paths on November 11, 2011 and life has been an adventure for us since then. After all of the celebration is over, the
fate of mankind weighs heavily on my mind once again and I am ready for a lifelong war against Skynet.
