BoJamesDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Jesse nodded with a smile"That I did..."Bo smiled as he looked at the Aunt and Uncle he had never got the chance to know, seeing how much Luke looked like his father.

DaisyMaeDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Luke noticed it too. Especially now, that he was closer to the age his father had been. He bit his lip realizing forthe first time, how hard it must have been on Jesse to raise a boy who was a constant reminder of the brother he lost.

BoJamesDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Jesse sighed softly as he remembered the day the picture had captuered, happily but also with a little sadness that Luke's folks couldn't see what a great man Luke had grown up to be.

DaisyMaeDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 ****Flashback****Luke lay amongst the blankets crying at the top of his lungs."Well...his lungs work," said Lavinia with a smile to her sister-in-law who held the baby close to her, trying to quiet him.

BoJamesDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Rebecca looked over with a small, tired smile to Lavinia, nodding softly."Yeah they sure do..."Jesse smiled too as he finished clearing up, leaving the room to wash his hands, smiling as he saw Kevin making proud telephone calls to all of his brothers and friends.

BoJamesDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Rebecca nodded as she looked over her newborn son again, running a hand through the dark curls that already adorned his tiny head, rocking him gently in her arms as she moved to stroke the tiny fists that clutched the blankets he was wrapped in."He's gonna look just like his dad when he's older...though hopefully he'll have a bit more common sense..."

DaisyMaeDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Thunder boomed outside and as if on cue Luke whimpered a little."He knows he don't like thunder," put in Lavinia. Kevin's voice could be heard from the other room yelling, " I'm a daddy!"Lavinia chuckled. "Guess we know where he gets his mouth from...."

BoJamesDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Rebecca chuckled a little, nodding and soothing Luke softly."I don't think he doesn't like the thunder...its just not somethin' he's used to is all...otherwise he'd be back to screamin' again..."Jesse shook his head as he went to Kevin, tapping his shoulder."Your wife's just got your son to stop his cryin', unless you wanna be the one to try it next i'd keep it down..."

DaisyMaeDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Kevin nodded. "I still can't believe it. That's my baby...my son..."Luke, meanwhile, had quieted at soothing sound of his mother's voice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoJamesDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Jesse smiled and patted his shoulder"Congratulations.."Rebecca smiled and just watched her baby boy, before looking to Lavinia."You got any ideas for names?

DaisyMaeDuke Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 Lavinia looked at the baby. "Well...I suppose you could always name him after his father...though one Kevin is enough for any family..." she added teasingly so her younger brother-in-law could hear."Hey now..." said Kevin smiling.
