justagirl4fun Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Charlotte and Colin Kennedy live in rural upstate NY with their 3 daughters - Abbie, 6; Caitlin, 4; and Evie, 18 months. When Colin's cousin, Ella, and Ella's husband, Rob, are killed in an accident their daughters - Cora, 8; and Kristyn, 4 - must move from California to live with the Kennedys. Cora and Kristyn deal with the grief of losing their parents as well as the stress of moving across the country from the only home they've known and must learn to get along with the cousins they've never met. Abbie, Caitlin and Evie must learn to be patient while Charlotte and Colin focus on Cora and Kristyn, helping them deal with their loss. Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted November 22, 2014 Author Share Posted November 22, 2014 Colin Kennedy breathed a sigh of relief as he stepped off of the plane that brought him, and his cousin's two young daughters, from California to New York. The flight seemed to last forever - Cora, 8, had been airsick and vomited almost nonstop during the trip while Kristyn, 4, had wet her pants halfway through the flight and then proceeded to throw a two-hour temper tantrum, kicking and screaming as she sat in her damp clothes while Colin sat by, unable to change her as he dealt with Cora, before finally passing out for the last 45 minutes before landing.

Charlotte heads upstairs to the nursery with the baby asleep in her arms. I sleep in mommys arms suckling my thumb cuddling close Link to comment
justagirl4fun Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 Colin brought Kristyn to the bathroom, removed the wet clothes, and wiped her off. "I'll be right back," he said, and tiptoed into Caitlin's room to grab a pair of panties and some warm winter pajamas. Returning to the bathroom he got Kristyn dressed, then went to find his wife. "Honey, I'm gonna go get our luggage out of the car and clean the seat," he said, setting Kristyn down. "She used the toilet just fine the whole time we were in California, but she had an accident on the plane and another one in the car. Not sure what's going on so just keep an eye on her."

justagirl4fun Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 Kristyn just stands eyeing the strange woman warily, wanting nothing to do with her. Cora approaches her shyly. "I..I..I'm hungry," she stammered out, having vomited up everything she'd eaten earlier. Link to comment

justagirl4fun Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 "I know that, honey, but it is normal for children to regress in stressful situations. Let's just give her some time to get used to us, okay?" In the kitchen her grabbed a banana from the fruit bowl on the counter. "You want this?" he asked Kristyn. Still sucking her thumb she reached for it. he peeled it and handed it to her. "That's about the only thing I could get her to eat all week," he said to Charlotte. Link to comment

justagirl4fun Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 "No melon, but she wouldn't eat cheese when I tried." Colin poured a cup of milk for each girl as Cora sat quietly waiting for her chicken nuggets. "Wouldn't know it to look at her, but this one will eat just about anything," he said, tousling Cora's hair. The girl was tall and thin, with almost no meat on her bones, but she never failed to surprise him with how much food she could put away in a sitting. "I'll be right back," he said, hearing the baby cry upstairs. He ran up and scooped her out of the crib, hugging and kissing her. "I missed you so much!" he said, cuddling her as he carried her down to the kitchen. Link to comment
