“Look at that lightning.” I point at the sky through Austin’s Jeep window.
“I heard the storm might be bad. Are you sure you don’t want to go home and rest?” We pull out of Lifetime Adventures along with the motorcade of Baileys.
“No. I want to be there when their daughter is born.”
I’ve loved being pregnant with my two sisters-in-law who feel more like true sisters. There’s no way I would miss this birth.
Once we’ve driven in silence for a minute, I say, “You can stop being sour now.”
Austin looks at me. “I’m the firstborn. I should get to use Mom’s name for my daughter, not Savannah.”
I laugh and place my hand on this thigh. “Technically, Rome could’ve done it with Phoebe. It’s no one’s right. Just be happy that her name will live on with one of her grandchildren.”
