"Mommy, mommy." Gracie called as Becky came into the lobby.
Becky smiled and scooped Gracie up and hugged her.
"Morning my sweet girl, did you have a fun camp out?" Becky asked.
"Yes." Gracie said. "Where is my daddy?"
"I'm right here." Seth said coming in smiling. "Where is my little girl."
"I here daddy." Gracie said.
"There she is." Seth said taking her from Becky and hugging her.
"Daddy I hungry." Gracie said.
"You haven't eaten?" Seth asked.
"Someone knows what today is." Josh said.
"I see." Seth said. "Remember we talked about this."
"I know." Gracie said. "I just gonna miss you so, so, so much."
"We know and we will miss you just as much but you are going to be so busy time will fly I promise." Becky said.
"Okay." Gracie said.
"You also know breakfast is important, so let's get you fed." Seth said.
"Okay daddy." Gracie said.
Seth took her to eat and Becky sat down with her family.
"How does it feel?" Annette asked.
"Like I married the love of my life yesterday." Becky said.
"You did." Annette said. "I have enjoyed watching you two and you two with Gracie all week. He looks at you like you hung the moon."
"She looks at my son the same way." Holly said sitting down.
"True." Annette said.
"They are going to make adorable babies." Holly said.
"I agree." Annette said.
"Speaking of babies, are there going to be any new ones?" Ken asked.
"Da." Becky said.
"Are you two thinking of babies?" Annette asked.
"I told Seth after WrestleMania this year." Becky said.
"Oh darling." Annette said.
"A baby." Holly said.
"We are just letting things happen as they will." Becky said. "You have one granddaughter and you both have older sons to badger about making you grandparents again."
"Don't do that." Rich said.
"I agree." Brandon said.
"She is right you know." Holly said.
Becky smirked and left to check on Seth and Gracie.
"Mommy." Gracie said.
"Hello my sweet girl." Becky said scooping her up and sitting in her seat placing her on her lap. "How is breakfast."
"Okay." Gracie said.
"Look what I found." Cesaro said setting a bowl down.
"Grapes." Gracie said. "You're the best Uncle Tony."
"Thank you." Cesaro said sitting down.
Gracie smiled and dug into her grapes.
After eating they packed up and said goodbye to their family and headed to the airport.
"So you get some good sleep on this flight, you're going to get in around four in the morning so make sure you don't over whelm grandma and grandpa." Becky said.
"I'll be good." Gracie said. "You'll call me right?"
"Our flight won't last for almost thirteen hours after yours so we will call you to say goodnight." Becky said.
"And daddy will read me a story right?" Gracie said.
"I have a book of stories so I can." Seth said.
"Okay, it's time to be brave now huh?" Gracie said.
"It is." Becky said. "Remember I can see where ever you are and I know everyone is going to take great care of you."

Gracie nodded and Becky hugged her tight.
"I love you." Becky said.
"I love you mommy." Gracie said.
"Come here." Seth said lifting her to him. "I love you."
"I love you daddy." Gracie said hugging him. "Have fun and bring mommy home soon."
"I will." Seth said kissing her forehead. "Do you need someone to carry you?"
"Uncle Josh." Gracie said.
Seth smiled and handed her over to Josh and she buried her head in his shoulder.
"She'll be okay." Holly said. "I have her plan and some surprises to look forward too."
"Thanks mom." Seth said. "Have a safe flight."
"You too." Holly said as Becky and Seth headed toward the gate where their plane was boarding.
"She still asleep?" Holly asked.
"She cried for a bit." Josh said lifting the blanket that was currently covering her on his lap.
"She'll be okay." Holly said.
"She's three." Josh said. "It will be hard at times but she has a great support system around her."
"She does." Holly said. "Let us know if we need to take her."
"I will." Josh said. "I kinda like her clinging on me."
Holly nodded and sat back down and Josh smiled down at Gracie before covering her up.
"Good morning sweet pea." Holly said when Gracie came into the living room.
"Where is Uncle Josh?" Gracie asked.
"He is on his way over with a surprise." Holly said. "You up for some food?"
"Some juice please." Gracie said.
Holly smiled and got her a cup.
"Thank you grandma." Gracie said.
"You are welcome." Holly said.
After she finished her juice she sat down to play with her toys.
"Bella, Kevin." Gracie called and the dogs jumped all over her licking her.
"They were excited when I told them they were going to come be with you." Josh said.
"Thank you Uncle Josh." Gracie said giggling. "That tickles."
"Uncle Josh how far away is Gigi?" Gracie asked.
"You mean Fiji?" Josh as,Ed.
"Yes." Gracie said.
"Did you bring your map book?" Josh said.
"Yeah, always." Gracie said.
"Go grab it." Josh said and Gracie ran to her room and found the book and ran back.
"Got it." She said.
Josh smiled and picked her back up and sat her on his lap.
"So Fiji is an island in the Pacific." Josh said helping her find the page.
"Wow." Gracie said looking at the dot that indicated the island. "Mommy and daddy are in a dot?"
"Well right now there are in a plane still, but then they will be on an island." Josh said.
"So we are here." Gracie said pointing the the mark that indicated home on the large map. "And mommy and daddy will be here."
"Yep." Josh said.
"That is very far." Gracie said.
"It is, but they'll be back before we know it." Josh said. "I bet they'll bring you presents too."
"Mommy said they would." Gracie said. "I just want them thou."
"I know." Josh said. "How about we go get some cocoa and toast?"
"Okay." Gracie said.
"Hello my sweet luv." Becky said over the video.
"Mommy." Gracie said happily. "Are you in Fiji?"
"We are." Becky said. "I'lol send some pictures tomorrow."

"How was your day?" Becky asked.
"Good, Uncle Josh kept me busy." Gracie said.
"That's good." Becky said. "Do you know what I found when I unpacked my bag?"
"What?" Gracie asked.
"Someone put a little bracelet in my stuff." Becky said showing her.
"I did." Gracie said. "Surprise."
'I love it my sweet girl, just like I love you." Becky said.
"I love you mommy." Gracie said.
"Are you excited for your first dance lesson tomorrow?" Becky asked.
"Yes." Gracie said. "My outfit arrived and grandma let me try it on."
"I got the picture, you look adorable." Becky said.
"Very pretty." Seth said sitting down next to her.
"Daddy." Gracie said smiling.
"Hello my sweet girl." Seth said. "Nick sent a picture of you putting the boys to task at the gym."
"Yeah, they ate to much Christmas candy." Gracie said.
"I bet they did." Seth said. "We'll keep on them."
"I will." Gracie said. "Is it story time?"
"Are you sleepy?" Seth asked.
"Yeah, I had a big day." Gracie said.
"Well you get situated in bed and I'll grab my book." Seth said.
"Grandma story time." Gracie said.
Holly appeared taking the IPad while Gracie got in her bed under her green blanket.
"Okay all tucked in." Holly said.
"Thank you grandma." Gracie said.
Holly smiled and kissed her head while setting the IPad beside her so she could listen to Seth read.
"Sweet dreams baby." Becky said. "Good night."
"Good night mommy I love you." Gracie said.
"Mommy loves you." Becky said.
She set the phone so it was in Seth who was sitting down on the bed with the book.
"Okay baby, tonight story is the Princess and the Pea." Seth said.
He read her the story and she feel asleep. Seeing her out they ended the call and texted Holly who got the IPad and plugged it in.
"Very good Gracie." Heather her dance instructor said.
"Thank you Miss Heather." Gracie said. "Hi grandma."
"Mrs. Franklyn." Heather said. "Your granddaughter has quite the talent for this."
"Her mom arranged for her to take these lessons to see if it's something she wants to do." Holly said.
"I meet a real Ballerina who was playing Clara in the Nutcracker in Chicago." Gracie said. "She taught me some lessons."
"She must have seen what I see." Heather said.
"Gracie's birth mother was said to have a talent for dance as well." Holly said. "If is her parents want to nurture her gift she she wants."
"I do." Gracie said. "I'll be like my mama."
"She'll be very proud." Holly said.
"I didn't know she was adopted." Heather said.
"My mama died from cancer, but before she died I found my mommy and daddy." Gracie said. "Mama is my angel."
"That is wonderful." Heather said. "I was adopted when I was young too, so I know how special it is to find your forever family."
"It's the best." Gracie said.
"It is." Heather said. "I will see you Monday for your next lesson."
"Okay." Gracie said.
Holly smiled and helped her put on her coat before they headed home.
"Why are we at my house grandma?" Gracie asked.
"Because after your nap Uncle Josh is going to take you to your first daddy surprise." Holly said as Josh appeared.
"Uncle Josh." Gracie said.
"Hey kiddo, ready to nap?" Josh asked.
"Yes." Gracie said. "In my own bed right?"
"If you want." Josh said.
"Her regular clothes are in her beg." Holly said.
"Sweet, Jen has a bath waiting for you." Josh said.
"Aunt Jen is here?" Gracie asked.
"She is, came in to be with me since we were apart for a while." Josh said.
"Yay." Gracie cheered.
"I'll have her able around dinner time." Josh said.
Holly nodded and Josh headed into the house with her.
"Aunt Jen." Gracie called running to her.
"Hello my little dancer." Jen said hugging her.
"I missed you so much." Gracie said.
"I missed you too." Jen said. "How about we go get clean, then have some Mac n Cheese before a nap?"
"Okay." Gracie said. "I am tired from dancing all morning."
"Well come tell me all about it while you bathe." Jen said taking her into the bathroom.
"Where are we Uncle Josh?" Gracie asked.
"I was told to bring you here and play this video." Josh said pulling out his phone.
"Hey Gracie, if you are at a giant red barn you are in the right place." Seth said. "If you climb out of the car you will see a trail of purple pine cones. Fallow the trail they make to find your first surprise and be sure to have fun and get Uncle Josh and Aunt Jen to take loads of pictures. Can't wait to hear about this when we call tonight. Love you baby."
Josh took his phone back and they climbed out of the car.
"Look." Gracie said pointing to the purple pine cone.
"Let's go see where it goes." Jen said taking her hand while Josh recorded them.
"Into the barn." Gracie said.
Jen smiled and opened the door for her and the train continued inside into a stall that had a big purple bow on it.
"It's a horse." Gracie said.
"Hello, you must be Gracie." A man said coming in.
"Yes, I am Gracie." She said.
"I am George, I own and run this farm." He said. "Your dad Seth asked me to help you with your gift."
"My gift?" Gracie asked.
George smiled and pointed to the horse.
"Daddy got me a horse?" Gracie said.
"Indeed he did." George said. "Her name is Luna and she's just two years old."
"Wow." Gracie said.
"Now Luna will live here on this farm where she has plenty of room to run around and many hands to take care of her." George said. "But you get to come visit her whenever you like."
"Cool." Gracie said.
"Would you like to pet her?" Jen asked.
"Yes please." Gracie said.
George showed them into the stall and over to Luna.
"She licked me." Gracie said.
"Must like you." George said.
"WellI love her." Gracie said kissing her nose.
"So today we are going to learn about taking care of Luna and then after we get you changed into ride gear you can take her for a ride.
"Okay." Gracie said and he went to work showing her things and answering questions as she got them.
"Wait." Gracie said as she stood in her riding outfit. "Will you take a picture to send to mommy and daddy?"
"Of course I will." Jen said taking several pictures.
They walked out to where Luna was saddled.
"Now Jen is going to walk on that side of you and I will be on this side." George said.
"Okay." Gracie said. "Luna is going to be a good horse."
Luna bent her head down and Gracie patted it.
George helped Gracie onto the horse as Josh filmed and took pictures. George told her how to go and Luna listened and moved as Gracie told her.
"How was that?" Jen asked.
"So much fun." Gracie said. "I wasn't scared, I knew Luna wasn't going to drop me."
They walked into the stall and helped brush Luna down and gave her a treat.
"I have to go now Luna." Gracie said. "Thank you for being my horse and taking care of me."
Gracie kissed her nose again and Luna nayed.
"I think she love you." Jen said.
"I love you Luna." Gracie said. "Be a good girl and I will be back soon."
"How about we come back next Tuesday and Saturday before we go meet your parents in Oklahoma." Josh said.
"Okay." Gracie said. "Thank you for taking care of Luna and letting her live here."
"We're happy to have her." George said. "See you next week."
"Grandma, grandpa guess what daddy got me?" Gracie said rushing inside.
"What did he get you?" Bob asked.
"A horse." Gracie said. "Her name is Luna and she is all mine."
"Wow." Both said.
"Uncle Josh and Aunt Jen took lots of pictures and video to show mommy and daddy." Gracie said.
"They will love that." Holly said.
"I hope it's okay but I made an appointment for tomorrow to get Gracie some riding gear fitted at a shop in town." Jen said. "We'd be happy to take her."
"That would be good." Holly said.
"Well then Miss Gracie we will see you tomorrow." Josh said. "About ten."
"Okay." Gracie said.
"I forgot her dance gear at the house so we will wash it and bring it back tomorrow." Josh said.
"No problem." Holly said.
After goodbyes Gracie changed in to some light clothes and played with her toys until dinner time and then waited for her parents to call.
"There's my cowgirl." Seth said.
"Daddy I love Luna so much, thank you." Gracie said.
"You are most welcome." Seth said. "Josh sent us all the pics and videos."
"It was so cool." Gracie said.
"That's great." Becky said. "How was dance?"
"It was so much fun too." Gracie said. "Miss Heather says I have talent."
"You do." Becky said smiling. "You have ice skating tomorrow."
"Yes after nap?" Gracie said. "Uncle Josh and Aunt Jen are taking me to get riding gear tomorrow."
"He told us." Seth said. "You look like you are ready to sleep."
"It was a long day." Gracie said. "I am ready for my story."
"Okay." Seth said. "Let me get your book."
"Sweet dreams my sweet luv." Becky said. "I love you."
"I love you." Gracie said kissing the screen.
Seth reappeared with the book and opened the book.
"Tonight we have Ugly Duckling." Seth said.
Gracie smiled and laid down and Seth read putting her to sleep.
"Sweet dreams." Seth said before ending the call.
