I heard Luna Zoey telling the story of Alpha Eric who apparently can’t change a diaper without gagging. Zoey has all the girls doubled over laughing at her reenactment of Eric’s gag reflex when he’s changing a diaper. “I mean seriously! Tell the man to go into a battle and he can slay an army, come home covered in gore and not blink an eye. Ask him to change a diaper and the minute he sees a bit of poop he’s practically hanging over

I finally decide on a name, Cara. Lily had been researching names in her spare time. She stumbled across the name Cara and found out that it means “beloved‘. We both decided that, since we know our little girl is going to be loved beyond belief by both her parents, it is a fitting
