400 Growing Up

April 2024

Keeley and Aaron sat next to each other during the twins' spring recital at school and tried their best to keep the younger kids quiet. They were far too squirmy and had no interest in watching their older siblings sing.

Oliver wasn't quite five yet and Nathan's third birthday passed only a week ago. Those two were a lot closer in age that Keeley had bargained for—dealing with two babies at the same time was a handful—but she was grateful to have Nathan. Now they were officially done having kids.

The Singletons, sitting next to them in the audience, seemed to be somehow mocking their predicament by smiling smugly. Both of their children were involved in the recital so they got to sit back and watch carefree.

At least the Quinns were suffering as well. Liam was onstage but their two-year-old daughter Elsa was trying to escape.
