Point
of View Series Part 10 -- Going to get Daddy (Ellie's POV) We are going to the police place with mommy. All of us. Me, MJ, Chloe, and Stefanie. I guess daddy's car isn't working again, cause he is there waiting for us. His car breaks down a lot at the police place. Maybe the policemens are just nice to daddy and so he likes to go there when his car is broken. It took mommy a long time to get us all in the car. Usually, whenever all four of us kids go someplace in the car, daddy is there to help or Johnny or Max, but today they aren't. I got to be mommy's helper, cause I holded onto MJ's hand while mommy put the twins in the car. It took her a long time, cause they hate to go in their car seats. They kept crying and screaming every time mommy tried to put the bar things over their heads. Mommy said something real quiet to herself about how they were definitely their father's daughters, hating bars and all. She finally got them in their seats, but I think she was really tired when she got done, cause she had to sit down in the seat for a minute and she kept rubbing her back. Her tummy is really big again, MJ told you there are two again, right? Mommy says this is it, she is not having anymore babies. She said that last time too though, so I don't believe her. She was super mad at daddy the day she found out. I don't know why she was so mad at him; Auntie Kristina says that it takes two to tango. I didn't know that when people dance they make babies. There is no way I am gonna go to that stupid ballet class next week that mommy wants me to go to. I don't like those pink fuzzy things they make you wear and there are way too many babies in our house right now. After she finished sitting down, we had to look for MJ. I let go of his hand acc'dentally cause he forgot to hold onto my puppy's leash and they both ran off. It took us a long time to find them in the garage and when we did, mommy was really mad. She doesn't like my puppy very much I don't think, but I don't know why. He is so cute and he gives me kisses all the time, and he jumps and plays a lot. Mommy must like him a little bit cause she is the one who named him. But mommy named him a grown up word. Don't you think "dammit" is a grown up word for a little puppy? But that's what she always says to him, so I guess that is what she wants his name to be. She was kinda mad when daddy got him for me. Daddy felt sorry for me, cause I was sick and he thought a puppy would cheer me up. Daddy was right, but I think maybe he should have asked mommy before he got it, cause mommy was really mad. `Course, that was also the day mommy found out about the babies coming, so it really pro'ly was not a good day for the puppy to come. We finally found them and put them in the car. Mommy hates driving this car and keeps saying that daddy is gonna have to buy a bus when the new twins get here. The puppy kept crawling in mommy's lap and she said for me to hold the puppy or she was going to stop at the pound on the way to the police place and "dammit, that dog is going to have a new family to torture." I started to cry and mommy said she didn't mean it, but I know she did. Mommy hates Dammit and I don't want her to make the puppy go away. I held onto him so tight that he got mad and bited me. I started screaming and bleeding a little, MJ saw the blood and threw up on the back of mommy, and the twins started crying cause the puppy was yapping. Mommy was trying to be calm, but I heard her say that Johnny and Max are fired for this and daddy may be better off staying in jail cause when she gets hold of him, she is going to hurt him, and then she said something bout a `sectomy again. I think daddy better go to the hospital and get that op'ration.
