The Hall Family- Week 2

Unexpected Joy

Weekly Update Written By: Natalie




Mother invited over Jon again today. She is falling head over heals for Jon. I hope she doesn't get pregnant before she gets married. I'd hate for Jon to abandon Mother because she is pregnant.




I could tell that Jon and Mother were madly in love. I know that they will probably end up marrying. I just hope it is before they have a child together rather than after.




That night was my birthday. I grew up and had a pretty good outfit to wear. It was an outfit that my mom wore when she was a teen and had kept. I decided that I was going to seek the knowledge to be smart and have a good job so that when I am a mother I can provide for my daughter like mine did for me.




I decided that the first thing I would do as a teenager was help out Mother by fixing dinner. I enjoy learning how long things take to cook and what not.




Jon was over again. They went out to the car to discuss grown up things in the car. I looked out of the door at one point and saw that they were doing more than just talking.




Mother complained of nausea the next day. I was sure the birth control had failed. She told me that she had had some of the stuff at the pot luck lunch at the station the day before and that something there must have been bad.




However when she started showing shortly afterwards, we both knew she was pregnant again.




Mother invited Jon over the next day. She told him she was pregnant and that the birth control must have failed. Jon wasn't the happiest person in the world about it, but I knew he was pleased to know that he was going to be a father again.




I guess Mother didn't want to raise her unborn child alone like she did me as she soon proposed engagement to Jon. I think she wanted to make sure that the unborn child had more of a childhood than I did. I'm glad she is doing this as I will be able to go to college instead of helping her raise the child.




One of the other teens in the neighborhood came over that afternoon. His name is Patrick Kirkman. As we talked that day and got to know each other, we found out that we had a lot in common. I hope he comes around again.




A few days later, Mother went into labor. I really hope she isn't having twins. We are living alone right now. I'm not sure Mother and I can handle two infants and make it through the day.




Mother gave birth to a healthy baby boy. His name is Nathan Hall.




Jon came over shortly afterwards to meet his third child and second son. I can tell why Mother decided to propose engagement. Jon's a caring father. He is willing to help pay for college even though there is no blood ties between us. He says it is because I am his step-daughter to be and that it was his responsibility to help me.




Nathan was soon a toddler. He's handsome. He also got a good outfit as Jon helped out and gave us the money we needed to get him a good outfit.

Mother alternated between teaching Nathan to walk, talk, and to use the potty. I also helped her some, but she told me that doing good in school was to be my priority and not helping out with Nathan.




Monday has come and this is what the house looks like after adding a nursery to it.
