I saw Niall asking Cain for a game of catch when they finished gardening but they didn't get far
When I released Brett from the Weight Machine he went inside to dance with Euan. They ended up doing the baby dance when I sent Cain inside
Greg was on his way to the bedroom when he stopped to do the baby dance. Euan had already had his dance so kept going to the bedroom.
Welcome Morna
Niall got his pre-age up snuggle
She has Grandpa Fife's black hair!
I didn't look at all the sliders but I could see at a glance that she is mostly Cain with Niall's mouth.
That jaw could only have come from Cain!
When I checked on Fife and Brett they had just finished woohooing
Niall and Cain celebrated Morna's birth with treehouse woohoo
Fife rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend
Since Niall and Cain were otherwise engaged, I had Grandpa Fife fill her social bar
This is what Niall and Cain were up to
They had been playing catch outside the tent when they were called to dinner. I changed their clothes with MC while they walked inside.
The family had Fife and Cain's favourite, fish and chips, for dinner.
Greg had a wish to catch five different fish locked in. He had 4 of the 5. He got his wish while fishing with Euan
Niall and Cain both had wishes to take Morna for a stroll but I let Niall go because he had fewer wish slots free.
Cain watched TV while they were out.
When I saw that Niall had already covered this much ground, I sent him home as it was late.
Fife and Brett watched the stars after Fife finished cooking Brett's favourite, stir fry, for tomorrow's dinner.
When Niall and Morna got home I had them get started on potty training.
After Greg got his wish I let the boys fish a little longer then let them go. When I checked on them they were watching the stars
I found Fife asking Brett to watch the stars again! I let them go.
I couldn't let Niall and Cain miss out on the fun!
Cain got Morna ready for bed while Niall took out the trash.
I sent Fife and Brett to bed when they were done.
The fish must have been off
Sam visited just before I saved and closed my game.
@Mikezumi What a lovely family.
Morna is really cute.
Where do you come up with the names? They are so unusual in my ears.
I hope Niall has a boy! (And I know you do too )
Thanks @ZhakiraP I use a different naming theme for each save and I get most of my names from Behind the Name. This save is a Scottish theme because Jordan, the founder, had ginger hair
Fife wished to fish before 6am. His wish is my command since his life bar is nearly full Not that I would have cancelled the wish anyway
He caught a rainbow trout before going back to bed.
I couldn't see Sam in the rocking chair but I knew where to look. Sure enough, he was heading to Morna
She seemed happy to meet her great grandpa
Ghosts never put toddlers back in cribs!
Sam turned on the stereo and danced for the rest of the night.
As the others were making the beds, I sent Niall out to tend to Morna's needs.
Sam was still dancing when the family came to breakfast and I loved how he turned to watch them
Brett's waking wish was to weed the plants.
Niall had all the Morna wishes! I had him play with her before teaching her how to talk.
I sent Cain out to garden since Niall would be busy with Morna for a while. He rolled a wish to level up when he watered a plant. Brett was trying to get to Fife but seemed to have forgotten where the door was and stood by the wall stomping his foot! Being of a similar age, I understand his confusion
After playing with Morna, Niall got started on teaching her how to talk.
It took a while but she got the hang of it
Euan's waking wish was to watch the Cooking Channel and Greg's was to spar with someone. Euan got his wish while Greg cooked some spaghetti, a wish he had rolled the previous day. When he was done I sent them to the park so he could have his spar.
When I went looking for Fife and Brett to send them to the park they were in the middle of woohooing. I let them finish before sending them. When I checked a little later, I could see they didn't need me
When Morna could talk, it was time to finish off the potty training.
When I checked on the boys at the park, I found Greg surfing the web and Euan chatting with some child. I think he may be distantly related. Brett and Fife were still loving it up
When Cain finished gardening he went to the board breaker. He didn't get far because I sent him to the park with Morna and Niall when the potty training was done. Cain chatted with an old friend, Melonie Herrera. Greg rolled a wish to give her a friendly introduction so I sent him over. Niall got started on the walking lessons because toddlers only get two days so skilling needs to be done quickly.
I saw Beitris heading out with her kids, Darnell and Stella. Both had birthdays later that day.
I noticed that Brett had rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend so I had him take a romantic photo with Fife
Morna can now walk
Cain didn't get his wish to take Morna for a stroll the previous day. He got his chance once Morna was skilled
When he got home, I realized the potty chair hadn't been emptied. Lucky Cain
I found Greg and Euan in the basement Euan looked very excited!
Fife and Brett had also been woohooing in the elevator. I am glad they got the timing right because I have had couples get stuck when they have tried to use the elevator at the same time.
Niall and Cain were smarter and used a bed. Elevator woohoo doesn't fill the fun bar like bed woohoo does.
I heard the unmistakable squeal of a sim jumping into another's arms and found it was Cain and Niall.
Although I don't care for the interaction, I do love the "dismount"
Sizzling!
Niall got his notice
While Niall was getting his notice Cain was breaking boards.
Niall got his wish to take Morna for a stroll
When Niall got back from his stroll, he announced the pregnancy.
At least there is a brief look of excitement before the lame thumb up.
The family had Brett's favourite, stir fry, for dinner
Get out of the way, kid! You're blocking the view
Fife must have asked Brett while they were still in the dining area.
Cain and Niall watched the stars after a quick skinny dip
Niall got a craving for spaghetti. Cain got Morna ready for bed while he got his wish.
This wouldn't have happened if you'd just carried her, Cain!
Greg and Euan, when not woohooing, can usually be found on the MA equipment.
It seems that Brett asked Fife this time
Again!? I can't tell you how many times I cancel attempts to watch the stars. I am happy to allow one or two but it can get a bit old.
Niall rolled a wish for a massage so I had Cain take care of that before they went to bed.
Retuner is not perfect! I did tune burglars out and they do come rarely but there must be another less obvious option that I need to find.
At least the cop got there quickly and took care of her.
Euan had "fight" in his queue but never actually got outside.
@Mikezumi I just realized my Diesel stuff pack has stopped working. I haven´t seen those jeans for ages, and figured it was cc that I had cleaned out at some point. I´m glad I asked you about them, there are some really good stuff in there.
Niall got Morna up and ready for the day
Niall had a craving for Watermelon Cobbler.
Both Niall and Cain had wishes to take Morna for a stroll. Niall went first while Cain gardened.
The family didn't have waking wishes because they never get them after an attempted burglary Euan has a wish to master cooking locked in so I had him prepare some more cobbler to replace what they had eaten. I left Fife and Brett to their own devices
Greg had a fish wish locked in from the previous day so I had him fish while Euan was busy.
When Morna got back from her stroll she played on the xylophone until Cain finished the gardening.
Niall rolled a massage wish so I sent him to the day spa.
Cain got his wish
I had Cain put Morna down in the middle of the room when they got back from their stroll.
I like to age my toddlers up early rather than leaving it until the evening so they get a day to play before school.
At least she got girls' hair and clothes!
She seemed happy about her birthday
Morna had inherited Cain's skin which is my default, Kurasoberina Primer. I tried Niall's skin on her and liked it so kept it.
Niall got home shortly after Morna aged up so I sent her to get to know her dad better
I looked out the window and saw Cain, Niall, Euan and Greg getting ready to woohoo.
I last saw Fife and Brett in the bedroom but they must have had enough loving and were playing catch. Fife got some of his own medicine
Morna is artistic so I had her remove a painting from an easel. As soon as it was free, she started a painting
When next I checked on Fife and Brett they were chatting.
Greg: "Stop being such an old man and get out of that rocking chair!"
Greg didn't sit around!
Morna's social bar was going down so I sent her out to fish with her granddads
Niall relaxed in the hot tub while Cain broke boards. I'm sure Niall would have liked to be doing the same but pregnant sims can't do MA.
When Cain got his wish to break x amount of boards, I had him join Niall.
I remembered dressing Euan when he was in the rocking chair but found him dancing in his pajamas which could only mean one thing ... woohoo!
When Morna rolled a wish to visit the Art Gallery, I had her dads take her. Beitris was there with her husband, Jeffrey, and in-laws, Alec and Mariah.
Morna introduced herself to the handsome Alec. He would be an elder later that day
Cain and Alec were probably laughing about having the same hairstyle
I checked on the boys at home and found they were happily amusing themselves
Fife and Brett broke the hot tub.
The family had Fife's favourite, fish and chips, for dinner
Euan and Greg watched the stars after dinner
As did Fife and Brett.
I was about to look for Cain and Niall when the camera was wrenched from my control
I paused the game before letting this play through and went and made myself a cup of tea. It was a very sad moment as Fife was my favourite of the joint heirs
It took a while for Euan and Greg to get there. Fortunately Morna was out of range and didn't get pushed to witness her grandpa's death.
Grim must have been in a rush because Fife only had a moment to beg before being reaped and Grim vanished immediately after. I was relieved because the begging makes me sadder.
Morna mourned her grandpa before she went to bed
Poor Brett was at a loss without his husband
Greg and Euan woohooed after grieving. They are probably making the most of the time they have left.
I found Cain being an attentive husband
Because I didn't play yesterday, I had forgotten that Sam arrived just before I closed my game. I was watching my sims sleeping and caught him just as he was about to haunt the dresser.
When he was done haunting, he played the piano. I had totally forgotten that he was a virtuoso. Bad sim mama! In my defense, it was his artistic side that always seemed dominant when he was alive.
Niall's waking wish was to kiss Cain
Niall had a craving for key lime pie. Because Morna served the meal, she was first to start eating and I realized it was her favourite
Morna's waking wish was to finish a book so I gave her a comic book so she could get her wish before the school bus came.
Cain's waking wish was to water the plants.
Greg's waking wish was to meet someone new but he also had a wish to prepare peanut butter and jelly sandwiches locked in from the day before when he caught a jellyfish.
Brett's waking wish was to practise on the MA training dummy. While he was training he also got his wish to master the Athletic skill
Poor Niall had to garden even though the baby was due later that day because many hands make light work
I saw Brett heading for the rocker so I had Niall talk to his dad instead.
I found Greg and Euan dancing. It never occurred to me to check if Euan had the Club Dancing skill until today when I realized I had never seen him doing it, whereas Greg always does. It's usually a skill I give all my party animals but Euan must have been forgotten
I don't know who instigated it but I found Brett and Niall playing catch. Fife's headstone is the one with the sunflowers. I chose them because of his love of the outdoors.
"Go easy, dad! I'm carrying your grandchild!"
Because Brett is artistic, I sent the oldies to the Art Gallery.
It was a pretty boring visit from my perspective as they only viewed the art so I left them to it.
Back at home, Niall was dancing
While he was dancing, he rolled a wish to learn the painting skill.
Cain broke boards nearby
Niall had a backache so I had him take a break from painting so Cain could massage him. The massage led to flirting and woohoo
The hot tub is deeper than it looks!
They just managed to get the woohoo in before Niall went into labor Although Greg's queue said he was reacting to the baby coming, he didn't seem excited.
Not sure if he is reacting to Cain's reaction or to the impending birth
I saw Niall appear in Cain's queue a few times before he realized he couldn't do anything. I was surprised he chose the trampoline instead of the board breaker.
I sent Niall inside to give birth.
Welcome Kenna
Cain got his pre-age up snuggle
When Kenna aged up she had Fife's black hair. Although I was happy for Morna to keep Fife's hair colour, I felt that it would be too confusing to have two black haired girls so used the Consort Hair Colour Mod. I gave her 50/50 of her dads' hair colours
Where Morna mostly favours Cain, Kenna is mostly (if not completely) Niall.
While Cain was getting his snuggle, Niall shot some hoops. It didn't last long because Cain went out to flirt. While flirting, he rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend
I saw that Euan had rolled a wish to give Brett a friendly hug. I let him have it straight away because Brett is a day over a full life bar.
Morna came home from school with a wish to hang out with Elspet. I had her call her before starting her homework because I had got a popup the previous evening that Elspet was due to die that day
Kenna worked on her peg box skills.
When Brett finishing his painting he came inside to dance with Euan
The family ate a little late because I couldn't find any stir fry in the fridge so had Greg prepare some since I like my sims to eat their favourite food when their life bars are full.
After dinner, Niall got started on potty training Kenna
Euan and Greg watched the stars
Brett had a wish to catch a new fish locked in from who knows when so I sent him fishing. He caught his first tuna
Morna worked on her block table skills while Cain got Kenna ready for bed.
John arrived just after I loaded my save. I knew he was coming because he had arrived while I was taking the family photos in my last simming session even though I didn't save his arrival because I always quit without saving after using MOO.
After he filled his fun bar in the rocking chair, he woke Kenna.
He didn't play with her and I thought "how rude to wake her for nothing" as he was putting her down.
But he went one better than playing with her! It was sad that their family connection no longer shows. The game mustn't recognize relationships after great-grandparent.
Because she wasn't very hungry, I let John continue after I sent the family to breakfast. Cain stopped and watched them until the call to breakfast came.
Morna's waking wish was to paint. She finished the painting she had started on her first day as child.
Niall's waking wish was to water the plants. Cain's waking wish was to visit the Academy which I couldn't give him.
Brett's waking wish was to grow a perfect plant. He also had a wish to fertilize a plant with freshly caught fish from the previous day. I had him plant and fertilize a bell pepper. I then grew the plant with Debug Enabler
I can't remember what Euan's waking wish was but he rolled a wish to prepare crepes after eating them for breakfast.
I got a popup that Kenna had learned how to walk
When Niall finished gardening, I let him have his wish to take Kenna for a stroll
Greg's waking wish was to paint.
Cain asked John's sign when he finished gardening.
Euan danced when the crepes were done
Niall and Kenna only took a short stroll because I had forgotten that Kenna hadn't eaten. As soon as he gave her a bottle, he started dancing
I was glad he hadn't wandered far because Kenna also needed to go potty.
Brett was relaxing in the hot tub alone, so I had Euan keep him company.
Brett rolled a wish to catch a bug
I get really annoyed when sims carry toddlers for no reason other than to dump them. The queue gives no indication of what they are doing other than "automatically go there".
Instead of letting Niall just dump his daughter in the yard, I made him get started on the talking lessons.
He'd left a full potty when he came out so I had Cain take care of it.
Cain chatted with Brett when he was done emptying the potty. Brett had been dancing on his own. I awwwww'd when I saw them hugging
After chatting, Greg went to play computer games but Cain followed him to continue the conversation
I had Brett empty an easel to see if he wanted to paint but he went straight to the rocking chair which made me sad because he really doesn't know what to do with himself without Fife The family do go out of their way to keep him company but they can't be with him all day.
Once walking, talking and potty training were out of the way, Kenna could concentrate on mastering the xylophone and pegbox.
*ouch*
Brett finally started a painting on the empty easel I could have directed him to do it but I want him to choose his fun in the little time he has left.
While Kenna was working on her xylophone and peg box skills, the boys kept each other amused
Euan and Greg both had splinters so I know what they had been up to
Morna got home early. I got a popup that she wanted to go to Kerrie's house after school but Kerrie had an after school activity so I cancelled it. Kerrie is Duff's daughter.
Euan is making use of his new Club Dancing skill Morna was about to call her Aunt Beitris because she came home with a wish to hang out with her.
I had Cain join Kenna while she finished off her peg box skills because her social bar was taking a hit.
Morna spent some time with her grandpa after her call to Beitris.
Cain got his stroll before dinner.
Niall prepared Brett's favourite, stir-fry
Niall and Cain skinny dipped after dinner
Euan and Greg watched the stars
Morna played catch with grandpa
She didn't look like she was enjoying it
Niall and Cain watched the stars after their swim
Grandpa took care of Kenna's needs while Cain and Niall took care of theirs
Greg and Euan broke space rocks after watching the stars. Niall had collected a dozen gems earlier in the day.
I had Brett empty the easel again but he danced instead of starting another painting.
Cain had to make a mad dash to the bathroom in the middle of the night.
Cain got Kenna up and ready for her last morning as a toddler His waking wish was to toss her in the air
Cain was craving spaghetti.
Morna's waking wish was to finish a book. She's a bookworm so will roll lots of book wishes.
I sent Cain out to garden because Niall had a wish to take Kenna for a stroll and I wanted it out of the way so I could age her up.
Brett's waking wish was to paint a masterpiece. Unfortunately his painting was only brilliant. Hopefully he will have time to keep trying.
Euan had a wish to prepare stir fry locked in from the previous evening. He also had a wish to master cooking locked in and got both wishes
There is a baker's half dozen stand in the front yard because Morna rolled a wish for one. Fortunately she hasn't rolled any more wishes relating to it.
When Morna finished her book she played in the sand until the school bus came
I wasn't quite ready to age Kenna up when she got back from her stroll so I had her play with her teddy bear to keep her from wandering off.
Once I was sure that Morna had arrived in class and checked on all the boys, it was time for Kenna's birthday.
Good Lord! That hair doesn't look good on boys or girls!
Much better!
She was very happy about aging up
Here's a better look at her
Kenna is a virtuoso so I had her get started on her piano skill.
Morna had a field trip to the Mausoleum. Abner Frio was chaperone. Her second cousin, Kerrie, is sitting beside him.
Kerrie's brother, Peter, was also there as was Darnell, Beitris' son.
Kenna rolled a wish to learn the painting skill.
Brett rolled a wish to play a game with Niall over breakfast. After they played catch I had them spar because Niall had a wish to level up and I wanted someone to keep Brett company.
Brett kicked his butt!
The boys went inside to dance when they were done sparring. As I was lining up a pic of Niall and Kenna chatting, Brett took a tumble.
Cain had just been to the bathroom to throw up. Instead of going back to the board breaker he went to the rocking chair.
I sent Kenna over to get to know Cain. After chatting, they hugged
When Cain got his notice, Kenna left to ask Grandpa Brett for a game of catch.
When I saw that Niall was just shy of leveling up, I sent him to the training dummy.
You asked for the game of catch, Kenna!
"I have to do this every day?"
Comments
When I released Brett from the Weight Machine he went inside to dance with Euan. They ended up doing the baby dance when I sent Cain inside
Greg was on his way to the bedroom when he stopped to do the baby dance. Euan had already had his dance so kept going to the bedroom.

Your sims sure talke a lot of toddler walks.
It looks to me as if Euan´s mistaken that nightstand for a horse, the rodeo kind.
Please tell me where you got those baggy looking ladies jeans. They look spiffy!
Which jeans do you mean? Do you mean the ones on Beitris? If so, they are from the Diesel SP.

I saw Brett heading for the rocker so I had Niall talk to his dad instead.
I found Greg and Euan dancing. It never occurred to me to check if Euan had the Club Dancing skill until today when I realized I had never seen him doing it, whereas Greg always does. It's usually a skill I give all my party animals but Euan must have been forgotten
I don't know who instigated it but I found Brett and Niall playing catch. Fife's headstone is the one with the sunflowers. I chose them because of his love of the outdoors.
"Go easy, dad! I'm carrying your grandchild!"

It was a pretty boring visit from my perspective as they only viewed the art so I left them to it.
Back at home, Niall was dancing
While he was dancing, he rolled a wish to learn the painting skill.
Cain broke boards nearby
Niall had a backache so I had him take a break from painting so Cain could massage him. The massage led to flirting and woohoo
The hot tub is deeper than it looks!
They just managed to get the woohoo in before Niall went into labor
Not sure if he is reacting to Cain's reaction or to the impending birth
I saw Niall appear in Cain's queue a few times before he realized he couldn't do anything. I was surprised he chose the trampoline instead of the board breaker.
I sent Niall inside to give birth.
Welcome Kenna
Cain got his pre-age up snuggle

Where Morna mostly favours Cain, Kenna is mostly (if not completely) Niall.
While Cain was getting his snuggle, Niall shot some hoops. It didn't last long because Cain went out to flirt. While flirting, he rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend
I saw that Euan had rolled a wish to give Brett a friendly hug. I let him have it straight away because Brett is a day over a full life bar.
Morna came home from school with a wish to hang out with Elspet. I had her call her before starting her homework because I had got a popup the previous evening that Elspet was due to die that day
Kenna worked on her peg box skills.
When Brett finishing his painting he came inside to dance with Euan
The family ate a little late because I couldn't find any stir fry in the fridge so had Greg prepare some since I like my sims to eat their favourite food when their life bars are full.
After dinner, Niall got started on potty training Kenna
Euan and Greg watched the stars
Brett had a wish to catch a new fish locked in from who knows when so I sent him fishing. He caught his first tuna
Morna worked on her block table skills while Cain got Kenna ready for bed.

After he filled his fun bar in the rocking chair, he woke Kenna.
He didn't play with her and I thought "how rude to wake her for nothing" as he was putting her down.
But he went one better than playing with her!
Because she wasn't very hungry, I let John continue after I sent the family to breakfast. Cain stopped and watched them until the call to breakfast came.
Morna's waking wish was to paint. She finished the painting she had started on her first day as child.
Niall's waking wish was to water the plants. Cain's waking wish was to visit the Academy which I couldn't give him.
Brett's waking wish was to grow a perfect plant. He also had a wish to fertilize a plant with freshly caught fish from the previous day. I had him plant and fertilize a bell pepper. I then grew the plant with Debug Enabler
I can't remember what Euan's waking wish was but he rolled a wish to prepare crepes after eating them for breakfast.
I got a popup that Kenna had learned how to walk
When Niall finished gardening, I let him have his wish to take Kenna for a stroll
Greg's waking wish was to paint.
Cain asked John's sign when he finished gardening.

Niall and Kenna only took a short stroll because I had forgotten that Kenna hadn't eaten. As soon as he gave her a bottle, he started dancing
I was glad he hadn't wandered far because Kenna also needed to go potty.
Brett was relaxing in the hot tub alone, so I had Euan keep him company.
Brett rolled a wish to catch a bug
I get really annoyed when sims carry toddlers for no reason other than to dump them. The queue gives no indication of what they are doing other than "automatically go there".
Instead of letting Niall just dump his daughter in the yard, I made him get started on the talking lessons.
He'd left a full potty when he came out so I had Cain take care of it.
Cain chatted with Brett when he was done emptying the potty. Brett had been dancing on his own. I awwwww'd when I saw them hugging
After chatting, Greg went to play computer games but Cain followed him to continue the conversation
I had Brett empty an easel to see if he wanted to paint but he went straight to the rocking chair which made me sad because he really doesn't know what to do with himself without Fife
Once walking, talking and potty training were out of the way, Kenna could concentrate on mastering the xylophone and pegbox.
*ouch*
Brett finally started a painting on the empty easel
While Kenna was working on her xylophone and peg box skills, the boys kept each other amused
Euan and Greg both had splinters so I know what they had been up to

Euan is making use of his new Club Dancing skill
I had Cain join Kenna while she finished off her peg box skills because her social bar was taking a hit.
Morna spent some time with her grandpa after her call to Beitris.
Cain got his stroll before dinner.
Niall prepared Brett's favourite, stir-fry
Niall and Cain skinny dipped after dinner
Euan and Greg watched the stars
Morna played catch with grandpa
She didn't look like she was enjoying it
Niall and Cain watched the stars after their swim
Grandpa took care of Kenna's needs while Cain and Niall took care of theirs
Greg and Euan broke space rocks after watching the stars. Niall had collected a dozen gems earlier in the day.
I had Brett empty the easel again but he danced instead of starting another painting.
Cain had to make a mad dash to the bathroom in the middle of the night.

Cain was craving spaghetti.
Morna's waking wish was to finish a book. She's a bookworm so will roll lots of book wishes.
I sent Cain out to garden because Niall had a wish to take Kenna for a stroll and I wanted it out of the way so I could age her up.
Brett's waking wish was to paint a masterpiece. Unfortunately his painting was only brilliant. Hopefully he will have time to keep trying.
Euan had a wish to prepare stir fry locked in from the previous evening. He also had a wish to master cooking locked in and got both wishes
There is a baker's half dozen stand in the front yard because Morna rolled a wish for one. Fortunately she hasn't rolled any more wishes relating to it.
When Morna finished her book she played in the sand until the school bus came
I wasn't quite ready to age Kenna up when she got back from her stroll so I had her play with her teddy bear to keep her from wandering off.
Once I was sure that Morna had arrived in class and checked on all the boys, it was time for Kenna's birthday.
Good Lord! That hair doesn't look good on boys or girls!
Much better!
She was very happy about aging up
Here's a better look at her
Kenna is a virtuoso so I had her get started on her piano skill.

Kerrie's brother, Peter, was also there as was Darnell, Beitris' son.
Kenna rolled a wish to learn the painting skill.
Brett rolled a wish to play a game with Niall over breakfast. After they played catch I had them spar because Niall had a wish to level up and I wanted someone to keep Brett company.
Brett kicked his butt!
The boys went inside to dance when they were done sparring. As I was lining up a pic of Niall and Kenna chatting, Brett took a tumble.
Cain had just been to the bathroom to throw up. Instead of going back to the board breaker he went to the rocking chair.
I sent Kenna over to get to know Cain. After chatting, they hugged
When Cain got his notice, Kenna left to ask Grandpa Brett for a game of catch.
When I saw that Niall was just shy of leveling up, I sent him to the training dummy.
You asked for the game of catch, Kenna!
"I have to do this every day?"
