Choosing Hope

"Oh, Janie said something about her and Frankie going get super soakers or something like that,
it was hard to understand her because she was so excited. She said they wouldn't be very long."
Maura smiled with a chuckle. "It is a pretty and warm day, do you think we could have dinner
outside?"
"You know what? That's a great idea, the kids could use more time outside, I remember having
dinners outside when Janie, Tommy and Frankie were little. They would stay out there all night
had i let them." Angela said with a smile.
Just then Jane and Frankie came through the front door laughing like two children.
"Hey Maur, ma. Wait until you see what we bought for the kids." The brunette proceeded to pull
out both big and small water guns, a few packs of water balloons and a slip and slide.
"Jane," Maura says laughing. "I'm not sure who's going to have more fun you two or the kids."
Jane kisses Maura on the cheek. "We are all going to play. You and ma too."
"Ja," Maura went to protest.
Jane stuck her fingers in her ears. "LA LA LA I can't hear you." Maura couldn't help but burst
into laughter.
"Jane," she says playfully slapping the brunettes arm Jane began to laugh. "C'mon Maur it's
gonna be fun. Right ma?" Jane asked rasing an eyebrow at her mother
Angela sighed then smiled. "Yes Janie, but let us finish up in here so we don't have to come back
inside soaking wet."
