Bette: I’m sure that’s their goal.

The ride back to New York is easy, no traffic until they were back in the city proper. Bette pulls into the garage and they exit the car. Tina grabs the baby while Bette gets their luggage and has the key ready to open the door. She opens the door and let’s Tina enter first. Tina’s eyes well up with tears as she sees the decorations Bette and Angelica had made. They had put up a welcome home Mommy banner and Angelica has drawn a special picture of the three of them at the park.

Tina: This is beautiful. Even at 1am this is priceless.

Bette: No, you are priceless to us and we are thrilled to finally have you here. Let’s get to bed. We have a big day tomorrow.

By 1:30 the family is all in bed and asleep. Bette woke at about 8am and got the baby ready for day care. She dropped the baby off by 9am and was back home about 30 minutes later. The moving van was scheduled to arrive around 11am. Bette checked in on Tina and let her sleep. She stretched out on the sofa and waited for the movers to call.

Tina: Good morning baby. I didn’t even hear you get up.

Bette: I took Boo to day care and just stretched out here waiting for the movers to arrive. They should be here soon if they haven’t gotten hung up.

Tina: I’m going to grab a quick shower and get dressed.

They have a quick oatmeal breakfast and wait for the movers to call. Bette has made room in the linen closet for their towels and sheets. Tina organized room in her closet in anticipation of fitting everything into their shared walk in closet. The movers were efficient. Bette had paid for unpacking. She wanted to be sure they’d had a chance to inspect everything before the movers left. Tina took inventory and supervised where things should be placed. All of the boxes where there and nothing arrived damaged. Tina focused on the kitchen while Bette put away the CDs, movies and baby’s toys. Tina had them hang her clothes that were on hangers then put the rest on the shelves. By 3pm everything was in and out of the box. Bette went down on the final run and had the movers put their now flat boxes in their storage locker. She tips them and heads back to the apartment.

Bette: Hey T, I’m really tired. I’m going to take a nap. Wake me to go get Boo.

Tina: I’ll go get her baby so you just take a nap. She’ll be ready for you when we get home.
 Tina picks Angelica up at about 6pm and takes her to the playground near home. She picks up a pizza and hey head home.

Evan: Congratulations on completing your move.

Tina: Thank you, it feels good to really be here.

Bette: Hey T, Boo.

Angelica: Momma!

They enjoy a pizza dinner and get caught up on Angelica’s day. Bette gives the baby a bath. Tonight rocking and a song are enough to put the baby to sleep.

Bette: T, I’m going to bed.

Tina: I’ll be in soon.

By the time Tina made it to the bedroom Bette was already asleep.

Tina: Good night my love. I’ll see you in the morning.

Tina could look forward to seeing Bette for many mornings as she was finally all the way home.
