The doorbell rang. "I've got it!" Tyler cried running for the door.

"Don't run in the house Tyler!" Sasha cautioned.

Tyler carried the pizzas into the kitchen and sat them down on the table. He opened the first box. "EW GROSS!" He said closing the lid quickly. "I hope you don't think I am going to eat that!"

"Don't worry Tyler! It is not for you! I figured your dad will be hungry by the time he gets home." Sasha replied placing the box in the oven and turning the dial to warm. "Hannah, do you need any help getting your pizza?"

"Nah. We have pizza a lot. I can do it myself." She said sliding a slice onto her plate.

"Do you want some pizza Bailey?"

"Dad usually gives her those yucky medicine Popsicles when she is sick. She loves them." Tyler suggested biting into his pizza.

Sasha went over to the freezer. "You mean these Tyler?" She asked holding up a plastic tube.

"Yeah. Those are the ones. They taste yucky by Bailey loves them."

"Why do you say they are yucky Tyler? The box says they are grape flavored."

"Taste 'em."

Sasha zipped the Popsicle open and pushed it up. She broke a piece off and popped it in her mouth. She sat Bailey in her high chair and gave her the rest of the Popsicle. "This isn't bad Tyler." She said swallowing the ice.

"How old are you Sasha?"

"27. Why?"

"You're 27 and you trusted a 7 year old to tell you something is gross?"

"Very funny Tyler! Maybe I'll hold you down and feed you one after you finish your pizza!"

"Can I have something to drink Sasha?"

"I'm sorry Hannah! What do you want to drink?"

"Don't let her have very much to drink. She'll wet the bed."

"I will not Tyler!" Hannah exclaimed. "Can I have orange juice?"

Sasha opened the refrigerator. "I don't see any orange juice Hannah. How about some apple juice?"

"Kaay."

"Do you want some too Tyler?"

"Sure." Sasha handed him a glass of juice. "Thanks Sasha." He said taking a sip.

"Thanks Sasha." Hannah echoed.

Sasha put the juice back in the refrigerator and turned her attention back to Bailey. She laughed softly. "Did you get any of that in your mouth Bailey? You definitely need a bath now!"

"I'm full." Tyler proclaimed.

"Me too."

Sasha glanced at her watch. It was almost 7:00. She knew Brian and Leighanne liked for the kids to be in bed by 9:00. "OK. Here's the plan." She said removing Bailey from her high chair. "I haven't given Bailey a bath yet so I am going to do that and then I will put her to bed. Why don't the two of you pop in a movie and when it is over, then you can get ready for bed."

"It is Friday night. We are allowed to stay up late." Tyler said throwing his plate into the garbage.

"I'm not buying that Tyler. 9:00 is late enough for a 5 year old and 7 year old to be up." Tyler made a face. "Let's go pick out a movie, then I will take Bailey upstairs."

"Fine." Tyler pouted. He turned towards the family room and added "But I don't wanna watch some girly movie!"

Sasha surveyed the videos on the shelf. "How about…" She moved down to the next shelf. "Willy Wonka?"

Tyler scrunched up his nose. "Nuh uh."

"101 Dalmatians?"

"Cruella is scary! I only like to watch that one when daddy is home." Hannah stated.

"Aladdin?" Neither child protested. "Aladdin it is!" Sasha declared removing the movie from it's case and popping it into the DVD player. She set the remote on the shelf. "I'll be back in about 20 minutes."
