Trinity


~~


Just under two weeks after the baby shower, and the unexpected delivery of Calissa, Owen and Calix, it was time for us to celebrate the birthdays for Reagan and Rika. They got their individual celebrations with the family and then they got a joint party for celebrating with everyone else. This, here, is what I was meaning when I said that they shared a day. Their actual birthdays were on different days, but they still shared their birthday parties. They already shared this special day with each other, so I didn’t want them to have to share it yet again.


Still, as we got closer to the big day for the twins, I couldn’t help but fear the boys were going to come on the thirtieth of November or the first of December. I would make do if they were born on one of those days, but I would prefer for them to stay in a little longer. I wanted to get closer to my due date.


Also, I was nervous about what I was going to give to Reagan and Rika for their big days. I wasn’t able to go shopping. I wasn’t keeping up with things that well. I didn’t know what they would want.


I had an idea, but it wasn’t something that they would be getting now. It was more of something that I was going to give them after the babies were born. Something that I think they would be elated to get from me right about now.


.....


I decided to resort to my roots and do something that I hadn’t done for the kids ever. I got some crafting things brought to me and I spent several hours making beautiful, handmade birthday cards for the two of them. I wrote out what the gift was and folded it up inside of the cards.


I made sure that the cards included things that they liked. Reagan was still very much into cars and nature while Rika still loved animals of all types. I made the cards sparkly and cool and definitely fun. I personally loved them and hoped that the two of them would too.


When the big day for the party came around. It was a joint party, but it was still customized so that they both got what they wanted in it. There were three cakes, one for them to blow out the candles on together and one for each of them to blow the candles out on their own. Rika’s cake was carrot cake, because that was her favorite. Reagan’s cake was strawberry because he preferred that one over anything else. And the joint cake was half chocolate and half vanilla. That way there were flavors enough for each of them and all of their friends from school.


Speaking of the friends from school, they had invited almost all of the kids in the elementary school to the party, and that meant that Talia’s friends were there as well. I was happy that they had so many people that they were close to, but there was a drawback right now. And that was that they were so busy with those friends that they didn’t seem to need us anymore.


“Ahh, you’re feeling it now too.” Noah came over to me and put his hand on my shoulder. “Elias is doing the same thing. Even at his party. He didn’t want me or Nikki, all he wanted was to hang out with his friends. It’s b.u.t.t wrenching, isn’t it?” I turned to look up at him and saw the sadness in his eyes. He may not sound sad at the moment, but this was hard on him.


“Hey, at least you have another one on the way.” I laughed it off but knew that wasn’t any sort of consolation.


“Yeah, I know. But there is nothing that hurts more than losing that first one. Or in your case, the two first ones.”


“Gee, thanks for that, Noah. That was really helpful right now.” I tried to hide how heartbroken I was right now. It wasn’t necessarily anything that was causing it. It was mainly just pregnancy hormones that were making me feel completely out of whack.


“I’m sorry, baby sis. I didn’t mean to bring you down. It just made me sad all over again. They’re growing up. They don’t need us anymore do they.”


“I will always need my momma.” I heard Reagan’s voice from the other side of my brother.

“Huh?” I saw my brother start and look around to see my children all standing there waiting for me.


“I said I will always need my momma.” Reagan repeated the words.


“And I will need my mom always.” Rika added.


“I don’t ever want to be without my mommy.” Talia added in the end.


“I know you will. That wasn’t exactly what I meant.” Noah tried to figure it all out, how to explain it to them. “You see, I was basically meaning that you guys are growing up so fast. It’s not like when you were babies or toddlers. You’re independent, grown up, capable. Those are all good things, don’t get me wrong, but it makes mommies and daddies really sad. We end up missing those times when they’re gone.”


“Oh.” Rika was the one that acted like she knew what was going on first.


“Do you miss that, Uncle Noah?” Reagan looked inquisitive and sad.


“I do.” A tear streaked down my brother’s face then as he looked off in the distance, presumably toward his son Elias.


“I’m sorry, Uncle Noah. But I know that E loves you very much.” Rika hugged him then and did her best to comfort him.


“Thank you, sweetheart. That means a lot to me.”


“Alright, come on, let’s stop with all the waterworks. This is a party, we need to be having fun.” I smiled and tried to sound upbeat.


“Yeah.” Reagan grinned.


“Actually, Mom, we came over here because we wanted to ask if we could open your gift to us now. We don’t want to wait.”


“Really? Mommy’s isn’t all that special compared to the others.”


“Yeah, we’re sure. Please Momma?” Reagan begged me and I saw that both he and Rika were really excited about this.


“Alright.”


I reached into the bag that was attached to my wheelchair and pulled out the large sparkly envelopes. Both of them looked at them with awe in their eyes and wonder written on their faces.


“Mommy couldn’t go shopping, but I thought that you would like to have these.” They took the envelopes from me then and opened them carefully. I could tell that they were trying their best not to rip the pretty envelopes to get to the gifts inside.


There was more glitter and confetti inside the cards when they opened them. They saw that the cards were personalized by me and made to their specific tastes. And during all of this, I saw that they were smiling.


After they read the little notes that I wrote them, telling them how much that I loved them and how I would always be there for them, they found the special little gift inside. It was just a small little piece of paper that was folded up, but it was written very artfully with calligraphy and border designs. It was also handmade by me.


Written on that little piece of paper was basically the equivalent of an entry ticket. ‘ADMIT ONE FOR A DATE WITH MOMMY’. It went on to detail that they could choose anything that they wanted and that Mommy would spend the entire time with them.


“Mommy, this is amazing. A..a whole day with you?” Rika looked up all excited. “For real?”


“Yes baby, this is for real. I want to make it up to you for being gone.”


“Oh.” I watched Talia lower her head in sadness when she heard what I had said.


“Don’t worry, sweetheart. Mommy made one for you too.” I handed Talia a pink sparkly envelope with a personalized card and a Mommy date coupon in it as well.


“Thank you, Mommy.” Talia leapt forward and hugged my arm. Reagan and Rika also came in and hugged me as well.


“Hey, Rika.” Reagan called out to his sister.


“Yes?”


“If we share the cards, then we can have two days with Momma.”


“Ooh, that’s right.” She smiled at him. “I think that we should do just that.”


“C..can I come with you on one of your joint days?” Talia looked sad at the exclusion she was feeling.


“Yes, you can. And I think I know just what to use it for.” I don’t know what he was planning, but I know that it was going to be good. He was a smart little boy that had lots of ideas.


The party continued. Reece spent most of the rest of it with me and we had a pretty good time. Mostly, we were just watching the kids have their fun. I guess this is what big kid parties were like. They truly didn’t need us anymore, just like Noah had said.


That was sad, though. I didn’t want to see my babies not need me. However, it was a proud moment too. They were independent, strong, smart, and capable. They were definitely the best kids ever. All three of them were.


“Do you think we will raise the triplets to be such good kids too?” I asked Reece as we watched all the kids playing in their own little games.


“I don’t see why not. We’re not going to do anything differently. They will grow up and be fine kids, just like the others. But they will be themselves, so they will definitely be different as well.”


“I know. And I am looking forward to that too.”
