There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night...         132

David and mama worked quietly together. He was so sweet and his eyes so blue and bright, even in the faint light she could see his spirit. Tiny fingers grasped her index finger, squeezing it with all his baby might. Mama’s other fingers stroked his hand as the two continue to bond. A sweet tune was in his ears, as dad lie quietly listening. This was heaven on Sims Earth for anyone. To hear the cooing of the baby and the sweet chirps of the mama was enough for this daddy. His heart sailed high in the sky of Love; he could feel his family floating with him. The large expansive feeling soon enveloped his beloved and son. The three soon were over the top and soaring with the birds and angels of Sims Heaven. Their night was calm for many hours. 

 All that next day the baby kept his parents busy. He needed to be changed often. He needed to be talked to, cuddled and burped. Blue and Patty had enough time to play cards, have small nutritious meals, and naps. 

After dinner she had something in mind. She cleaned up the table, and then took David away. Later she walked out in her comfortable nightie, with a clean baby in her arms, just in time to see Blue on the phone. ‘Yes we will be ready in ten minutes, thank you sir, and bless all your family for eternity.’

‘Where do you think we are going Mr. Blue?’ handing him the naked boy. Walking past them, she walked towards her tent. A slight worry had begun as she heard the words, ten minutes.'Oh I didn't finish the laundry. I knew there was something I needed to do today.'  

She heared a tiny voice, 'I have your laundry clean, dried, folded and put on your bed Mrs. B'

Oh how she loved her magic man and his suprises always for her. 'Thank you little man.' 

Soon afterwards, dad brought in a happy baby that needed a diaper. ‘I need to change too mom.’ The excitment in the tent was easily seen. They were all on their way sooner than most family can with a tiny baby.

She could feel the crispness of the air. The sky was full of bright stars. Living so far away from the city made it nice to view the true world. Did she have the right shoes for the trip, not sure where they were going. The thought fell away as she saw a flash in the sky. ‘Blue, a star blew up!’ ‘Keep walking; it was a natural movement towards growth.’ He had taken the baby through the forest in his buggy. Finally they arrived by the street. The city had mowed all weeds and flowers; their bench had been removed. ‘Oh honey, it’s okay. I feel so good right now. I don’t need to sit down. What a great idea to go play somewhere else.’ She hugged him tightly and kissed his cheek. The taxi arrived, the driver had to warn them the stroller could not fit in the car, they had to leave it behind.

‘Patty, this little guy seems to enjoy our outing. What shall we do tonight David to make mama smile?’ David was kicking and cooing as daddy tickled him. ‘Silly daddy, you make me laugh just by talking to him in that little voice. I love to hear that squealing he starts when you speak to him that way. What do you call that language Blue?’ He handled the baby to her, ‘Oh it’s a form of Zeppelin, now let’s go find a burger, I’m hungry. I heard they used bone fragments to make it crunchy. Sounds interesting doesn’t it mama?’ He grabbed their bag and walked around. People were staring into windows; the stores had closed for the hour-long dinner. Many of the wives had their husbands bored to tears over the wait for the sale.

The specialty shop had a basket they lent to the parents to lay their sleeping baby down. They even had nice pillows and blankets to keep him warm. Patty was thankful but nervous, the germs in pillows made her worry. ‘You know you bring what you fear to you dear one, if you live in fear.’ She turned and looked at her dear husband, his counsel was true to heart. She sat and held his hand. They quietly thanked their Sims God for their blessings, and their bountiful life of joy and comfort. After their meal they walked around the area. He carried their shoes as they walked in the sand, and stood by the water. The carefree feeling caught them and soon their whole being became calm. She would be found sooner than the child wanted to be. She had a new life she thought, but it would mean something other than her idea of new. Blue gave her a sketch of their new home he had seen. David nestled closer to his mother as dad talked of the new life and experiences that were present in their future. Becky would be part of that future and she could not change that. It was in her life plan also. They sat closely as they rocked in the swings. She listened to the sounds of the waves, birds calling, the crowd speaking quietly, sometimes growing louder. He could see she was becoming hypnotized. Whispering as to not startle her, ‘The forest calls us home my love.’

Okay David I hear you talking, I am here sir Bluesage. He quickly settled his son and soon the baby was sleeping. He thought he had been fed earlier, so he knew he just wanted some love. Blue could not go back to sleep, he thought he might walk around for a time. Before he was able to reach the grass, the baby began to howl. He heard mama stirring. A dark pool of blood told him Patty needed some rest. Bluesage walked back in and helped her get him settled down. He then lay by his loving wife and sang her a song to sweep her back into the glory of a deep sleep. How he loved her and knew she needed to move to a real world. Soon my love, soon we will move and all will be nicer.
