Natalie looked at him in shock. “How did you get that right?”

Connor chuckled. “I'm a smart boy. I'm now in the eleventh grade!”

“That's my son!” Natalie grinned and pinched his nose.

Suddenly, Sharon remembered something important. “Mommy, am I going to become an older sister soon?”

“Yes. Are you happy?” Natalie lowered her head and looked at the little girl.

Sharon nodded repeatedly. “Yes! I'm going to be a big sister soon! Yay!” She started jumping with joy.

Natalie instantly asked Connor to stop Sharon from jumping as she was afraid she would trip and fall.

“All right, all right. Calm down. Let's keep this a secret between us, okay? You can't tell anyone else about it,” Natalie reminded the children.

Connor nodded and did not ask why.

“Yes. We can't tell Daddy about it too.” Natalie looked at her seriously.

“Okay, Mommy. I'll not tell Daddy,” Sharon promised.
