I really wasn't ready for her to have a baby (thanks risky woohoo!) but we've had a surprisingly easy time. Things are going along just peachy! I'm just waiting for some disaster to strike.
Just like her mother before her, Elena picked out a winner. He's so attentive to her and they're absolutely adorable together. After the shock wore off, the two of them have been over the moon and eagerly awaiting the arrival of their little love bug.
But, as I foretold...disaster was just around the corner. Edwin had a mishap at work and set himself on fire. Thank the stars he was able to extinguish himself because he was so close to death and unfortunately when you're at work there's no one to put you out! I wasn't entirely sure what would happen if he had died there and I'm really glad I didn't find out!
Disaster was still looming. After the rough day at work, Elena lost her father to old age. She was absolutely devastated. Okay, I admit it...I was really sad too. Josh outlived Ember and I really had hoped he'd get to see the birth of his grandchild but the reaper said, "No!"
The shock
of losing her father put Elena in labor and while I was tending to her
husband's energy failure she gave birth to a daughter in the middle of
her dining. Somehow I missed her entire labor! An heir, their cute
little princess was born, Jordan Talia Montgomery!
Loss seems to have kicked Elena into overdrive too because not only did she take very good care of her daughter. She also achieved level 10 in writing and a couple promotions before even reaching the Adult lifestage! Whew! That took some very hard work and dedication! Way to go, Elena!
It wasn't long and baby Jordan had grown into a lovely young lady herself and her mom's hard work ethics seems to have rubbed off on her because she already had maxed mental and nearly maxed creativity skill points as she made the transition into a teen.
Days before Jordan was turning to an adult...Elena spun the want to try for a baby with Edwin and as she also needed to go on a couple dates for her aspiration rewards, I decided to go ahead and let them try for a baby in the closet. This time I was determined to let things happen intentionally rather than accidentally. I mean, what's cooler than telling your second child that their sibling was conceived in a closet and turned out good so they went for a repeat.
About twenty minutes after Jordan's birthday celebration into adulthood...Ezra Cain was born!
Just as Elena herself was born to an aging mother...little Ezra was born just in time to see Elena turn an elder. Her writing career is not near as advanced as her mother's but she's putting out a lot more books and earning more royalties so I've not been too stressed about it.
Overall, this generation has been fairly easy and I look forward to seeing what Jordan does with her life. She's just started working in the doctor career and had a great day on her new job. Let's hope she advances fast so dear ole dad can retire and spend his spare time fulfilling his aspirations!
Tune in for the next chapter to see if Jordan finds love and see Ezra grow up!
