Epilogue OAN

The nice thing about the Foundation, even though I work a ton of hours, I can do most of my work from home and when the kids were napping and now while the older ones are at school. I have always felt like a pretty good mom. Jasper is the greatest dad, but I always knew he would be. He is still teaching, and became Department Chair last year and had yet another book published, this time on the History of Abuse in America. It was a great year for us.

Our youngest was born, Stephanie, she completes the motley crew started with Harrison, 8, and followed two years later by Charlie, 6, and then two years after that by little Jasper, 4, and back to back with Peter, 3. I don't think I even stopped nursing little Jasper when I found about the next one. When we learned it was another boy, we just had to name him Peter James, or PJ for short. The boys were all so happy when they found out it this one was a girl. I finally looked at Jasper one day, as she slept in my arms after nursing, and said, "I think things are perfect just the way they are." He smiled, and said, "They have been perfect for the past ten years, darlin'," and a week later he made an appointment to officially end our child bearing years.
