eyes bugged out when it clicked. "No," he said in shock. Yet her head nodded yes. 
     
    Michelle’s mother had passed away the year before. Unbeknown to them, she had taken out a life insurance policy years ago. So it came as a shock when they were informed they had inherited a very hefty amount of money. It was split three ways between her sister's and she. Their business was also doing well.

That week, they became the parents to five strapping young boys. Her heart was ready to burst; Michelle could not have loved Diego more at that moment. Yet her heart also grew to include five little smiling boys.  There was Grady who was six years old. Roger and the twins Jed and Sergio were five. Last but not least little Victor was four and the baby of the group.
    ~*~*~*~*~*~
     
    22 years later Michelle Diaz is still as happy as ever and even more in love with her Diego. "Mujer, go get the phone. The first of five calls has come in," Diego yelled from the kitchen. 
     
    The first of the prodigal sons is calling. She wonder which one it could be and made her way to pick up. "Hello?" 
     
    "Mama. Como estas?" The deep voice of her little Sergio boomed through the receiver. Even the sound of their voice made her heart proud.
     
    "Sergio, honey, your mama is doing well. Fit as a fiddle for a 40 year old." He’s always worried about his mama. Yet not enough to come home often, these boys will be the death of her. She always worried, especially if they were being talked about in the tabloids. Which was more often than not.

"Mom you’re 43 today, not 40. Is the mind starting to go already?" Sergio reminds Michelle as if she didn’t know. He was always the smart ass of the bunch. 
     
    "Sergio, let your mama feel younger; your daddy says I have the stamina of-" She start to tell him only to be cut off mid-sentence.
     
    "Gross. Like I really want to hear that, shame on you old lady." Comes the complaint. Complete with gaging noises.
     
    "Vieja tu Abuela." How dare he call her old? 43 is the new 30, that's what Gloria her best friend always says. He was going to get his mouth washed out with soap for calling her old.
     
    "Mom, I didn’t call to fight. I called to tell you that I love you and will be there tomorrow. We can go out to dinner. Ok old lady." This kid needs a good spanking. He was just informed it was his grandmother who was old, not her. Like always, they never listen.
     
     "Si, esta bien. Now go back to your practice before you have to pay all that money as a punishment."  That was her little Sergio. He’s a boxer, maybe you have heard of him. He is very good at his job. He’s also very handsome. If you overlook the nose that has been broken so many times, he’s a part of a matching set. 
    His twin brother Jed is a football player. Then there is Roger who of all things decided to be in the UFC, who also has a busted nose. Victor plays soccer, he has very strong legs. Last but never least is Grady, the leader of the bunch. He became a Baseball player. All five of her strapping boys turned into five strapping hunky men. So the calendars they sent her say. When she sees them, all she sees are her five little boys.
     
    That is until last year when Lucinda's daughter got married and had a baby. Truth be told she got married because she was already 6 months with child. After holding that darling baby in her arms Michelle decided she wanted babies in her home. It wasn’t too much to ask for and she deserved them. While she was still young and strong to chase them. 
     
         Poor boys, they have no idea what mommy has in store for them.
     
     

Chapter Two
     
     After getting off the phone with little Sergio. Michelle went and made sure the boy’s rooms were all neat and orderly. They were wild boy’s growing up but still neat as a pin. Michelle guessed it was Grady who would tell them to be on their best behavior, so they wouldn’t get sent away.
     
    Frowning her eyes scanned the room. It seems
