I snorted as a thought occurred to me, taking care to keep my voice to a hush. "Is it wrong that I hope Dottie is right and I'm carrying twins? Because if not, can you imagine the arguments that will ensue over which one of them gets a turn to hold the baby?"
I was at peace as we shared another laugh. And why wouldn't I be when everything was so obviously right with our world?
"Well, are we doing this or not? If you ladies are going to sit there gossiping all day, I'm taking my bra back off." Dottie tried and failed to sound irritated. Truthfully, she was too excited about becoming a grandma to let much of anything get to her these days.
"Hush up, hag. Can't you see our boys are having a moment? Jeez, learn to read a room."
When Sandy and Dottie started bickering, that was our cue. The three of us rose and headed down to our house so we could get ready to go car shopping. And even if spending a Saturday at a car dealership was the absolute last thing I felt like doing, there wasn't anyone else in the world I wanted to do it with than these people I loved so dearly.
