And take it to the limit, one more time....

Patty paced the floor that night. The sky was full of thunder and it somehow seemed to put her on edge. Bluesage had watched as he emailed his next client he would be seeing. 

As he finished he shut the computer down. He walked over to his wife who was getting ready to go downstairs again to check on the baby. ‘Patty, I’ll be right they’re my love.’ He closed windows and shut blinds. He went over and checked Becky. He had to navigate her floor, as it seemed littered with stuff only a teenager would think to hang onto. He bent and covered her shoulder and ran his hand over her head and blessed her for giving him such joy and love. 

He then went to find his anxious wife. He saw the storm had begun to arrive and went to check windows downstairs. As he finished he was in the kitchen. The coffee had been set for morning. He checked to be certain of the time. His first client was very early. Satisfied he walked into their room.

'Blue, something is wrong. I looked at him, and everything looks right.' Her voice quivered, so he checked their son for anything out of the ordinary. He was deep into a baby dream, his eyes were rapidly moving back and forth.  'My love, please see how happy he is. He is dreaming of a nice warm meal of milk.'  She laughed, and told him to get in bed, she had to clean up the bathroom. She had lost her meal, a side effect of worries.

 Awaiting his wife he thought of what the Physic had told them. David would be a special child for them. He smiled and knew it was a blessing to have a child at his age. She walked in and immediately checked the baby again.  

‘Patty he’s okay honey, I checked him. Now you need to stop this and come here. I want to hold you and try to help you. Come here now to me.’ He took her mind off her worries that only he knew how to do

He held her tightly afterwards, and pushed a lock of hair off her face. She looked up at him. ‘Why am I so afraid tonight? Storms have never bothered me before Blue.’ He kissed her and sang a sweet song to her. This always calmed her and let Patty drift slightly away. ‘Can you sleep now mi’love?’ They lie side by side and fell deeply asleep.
