Charlotte as he held her son on the saddle while the pony plodded around in a circle.
“That’s great, especially since he’s the only kid at this party who is old enough for a pony ride,” Charlotte said and reached for her camera to take pictures, then she saw that Finn was already filming their son.
“Hey, maybe Hadley wants to ride the pony with her brother,” Finn said, stopping to scoop his daughter up. He held her out in front of him talking to her with such a look of pure joy on his face, Charlotte’s heart felt ready to burst.
After Hadley had ridden with her brother for a few laps, Finn gathered both of them up. JP rescued Jack from his very old, very unattractive nannie, and the two men walked together laughing and talking and sharing tales about their babies.
Amanda and Charlotte watched their husbands, both of them sexy and strong and at the mercy of their beloved children.
“The Pass Christian trip is a definite yes, the Gulf water is so warm, the kids will be in heaven, count us in. Man, Angelina Jolie better watch out,” Amanda said, “just look at your daughter, and you thought a baby girl wouldn’t be lucky enough to have Finn’s scrumptious mouth. Damn, you’d better find a good convent to put that girl in when she hits puberty.”
“She looks like Finn, doesn’t she? His eyes, his mouth, she doesn’t look like me at all, thank God. I think you’re right, she is going to be a serious beauty, and I have to tell you, she has all of us wrapped around her little finger. Atticus is already such a good big brother, he lets her have his toys and now that she’s taking a bottle he wants to feed her. He’s two and a half and he already watches out for Hadley,” Charlotte said and wiped away a tear, and she and Amanda smiled at what a big softy she’d become.
“Your son looks like his father too, but as promised, it’s our dirty little secret, so we won’t go there,” Amanda said. “So aren’t you dying to hear the biggest news in San Diego? The roaring scandalous divorce of Alexander Bly and his pregnant wife?”
“What the…?” Charlotte moved to the end of Amanda’s chaise lounge, she was truly shocked. “Maddie is willing to forgo her monthly plastic surgery appointments to have another baby? Why on earth are they getting a divorce if she’s pregnant?”
“According to Alex, they haven’t had sex in over a year, so evidently his wife went the Evangeline way of getting pregnant. My mother fucked around and had me, and Maddie fucked around big time with her ex, that dick-head photographer, Spencer Beck. Now the two of them intend to take my brother to court to get a huge chunk of his money. Alex is willing to pay her more than she deserves, but she has to give up custody of the twins. It’s a complete Jerry Springer mud-slinging disaster, and you know Alex, he hates to be in the public eye. So he’s paying her off, and her cosmetically enhanced ass is moving to Los Angeles,” Amanda said, tilting her head and waiting for Charlotte’s reaction.
“Wow, not good, I thought Maddie really loved him. I can’t believe she betrayed him with Spencer Beck, I mean seriously, how can he possibly compare to Bly?” Charlotte said, then she blushed as Amanda gave her a questioning look.
“You still love my brother, don’t you? I don’t think I’ll ever understand you, Charlotte,” Amanda said, shaking her head in disbelief.
“Sometimes I wish I could trade lives with you Amanda, my life is so much more complicated than it seems,” Charlotte said, and she looked out to the lawn where Finn was feeding birthday cake to Atticus. He held Hadley in his lap and Atticus swiped a tiny finger in the icing and stuck it in the baby’s mouth. “I’ll be right back, can a five month old have cake icing? Finn, don’t let her eat that!” she called out.
Two nannies wandered over holding Mia and Holden Bly, and Mia reached out her little hand and patted Atticus on the head. The
