It was later on in the afternoon
When I finally woke up from my nap
I felt a bit better than I did this morning. Stef and the kids went to the store, my parents were on their way
Stef invited them over. For birthday dinner. Even though it's not till the following week, l didn't have the heart to tell her. I wasn't up for company, she through a lot of trouble
The least I could do was enjoy myself
I know she's go all out. Stef knows
My mom was known for throwing huge parties, things have been distant between us these days. After she visited me in the hospital in LA
My dad senses the tension, hopefully today she'll keep her negative remarks to herself. Especially around Braylon and Nyla, l decided to get up and find something to put on. I have already showered, l probably wear a pair of jeans. And a nice shirt
I wanted to comfortable in my own home, l don't who's all coming over
My oncologist wants me to steer clear
Of people who are sick. Stef has cleaned the whole house from top to bottom, l head to the bathroom to do my makeup. I put on some foundation
I know l look a little pale, after I got finished in the bathroom.
The kids and I went out to find Lena
A birthday gift. Even though her birthday isn't until next week
Maggie texted me an hour ago asking if I needed her to bring anything,
I told her she could bring a bottle of wine. Lena's not drinking at the moment, my in laws should be there
Once we return. Braylon and Nyla
A nice bracelet for Lena, so far everything is going according to plan
They held my hand. As we enter the bakery to pick up dessert, l choose a chocolate cake with strawberries on top. It's enough to feed at least ten people, l paid for the cake which was 75.00 dollars. Once we left the bakery
We went to the mall, so I could get pick Lena's present from Pandora Jewelry store. I ordered Lena a guardian angel sliver necklace
Her parents were coming over as well
Along with two of our good friends
When we left the house she was sleeping. She's been doing that a lot
I know it's from the treatments
Dr. Watts warned me about
Braylon and Nyla are happy Lena's back home, especially Nyla she's a total mommy's girl. Braylon's pretty much laid back, he's asked me to teach him how to draw. I gave him a lesson, weeks ago. Now he wants to
Do Something else, l think we might put Braylon in soccer. Nyla's not old enough yet, after paying for Lena's present. We left out of the store
Then walked through the main entrance, we made outside and over to car. I unlock the doors, Braylon and Nyla, got into their car seats. I strapped them in securely and closed the door. I got on in on the driver's side, l place in the box front seat
I buckle up my seat belt and stuck the key in the engine and pulled out the parking space. I hoped on the expressway, for five minutes
Before getting off the next exit
The kids were watching a movie on the headrest. Stef passed a bunch of houses along the way, it wasn't to long
They turned down to the familiar road. Then she made a left
Onto the street, Stef put up into the driveway of their home. She saw her in laws car parked, Stef turned off the ignition and got out of the vehicle
Stef open up the side door. Stef unstrapped Braylon and Nyla from there car seats, Stef took the bags
Braylon was to get out. Then Nyla followed after her brother, Stef grabbed the cake box. Stef locked up the car and headed inside the house
She was greeted by her wife. Who was laying across the couch, wrapped up in a light throw blanket. Hey love
How are you feeling, Stef asks
I'm alright just tired is all Lena said
Ok baby can I get you anything to drink. Before I go into the kitchen
Stef says to Lena, can you please bring some water, Dad's outside on the grill
Mom bought a bunch salads with her
She made at home. Lena tells me
That was nice of her, did she talk to you. Stef inquired. The blonde knows the last altercation between Lena and Abigail, didn't go so well. She spoke
And asked how my chemo was going
Lena replied, Today is all about you
I don't want your mom upsetting you
While she's here. Stef Stated
Trust me mother knows not to do it around the kids, Lena explains
