VINCE- "Your mother and I have thought long and hard about this. We want to make sure you both are in agreement with our decision. It will effect all of us, but your mom and I are very happy about it."
ASTER- "okay, dad you have our attention, what is it?"
VINCE- "We are adding another family member to our family. Your mother and I are wanting to adopt a little boy!"
ASTER- "Really?"
VINCE- "We just think it's time and there are so many kids out there that do not have what you two girls have. We just want to share our blessings."
ASTER- "Okay, that sounds great, I'm all for it. Having a little brother would be kind of cool. So when is this happening?"
VINCE- "That's the other issue. We are going to adopt a foreign born child. We are leaving in a few days to finalize everything and bring him home. We are going to be gone about a week. So you two will be on your own until we get back. I hope you both are as excited as we are."
ALEXIS- "This is great! We will be fine. Can we go to the Coffee shop now?
ASTER- Lexi?! Please, this is important. Yes, we are very happy, I think having a brother would be great. And don't worry about us, a week is only 7 days, we will be fine here.
VINCE- "Great. okay, we leave in the morning. You two go on to the coffee shop and we will see you when you get home and talk more about it."
ALEXIS- "I can't wait."
