Now, it was time for church, and Tasha was two weeks away from her due date—and was absolutely ecstatic, so was Mark, even if his emotions didn’t show. And Tasha was never so excited for church, never ever.

One of her friends, Mary-Anne—who was sitting next to her—said, “You’re due soon, right?”

“Oh, uh, yeah!” Tasha laughed, “These two babies are an absolute blessing.”

“Oh, yeah, twins! And didn’t you use your dog Milo to announce it at your family reunion?” asked Mary-Anne.

The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

“Yeah,” she points her head to Mark, “Me and Mark here thought it would be a very great idea.”

“Hello! Good morning to you all!” said the Bishop, officially starting the Sacrament with an opening prayer.

After an hour or so, it was time for the church classes, Tessa and Mark headed to their Sunday School class. This year we focused on the Book of Mormon, and today we were talking about Mormon chapter 6 verse 8.

“Okay,” smiled the teacher, “everyone go to Mormon chapter 6 verse 8, and let’s read it together.”

Well, let's just say that went swimmingly. After today, Tasha felt more confident with her decisions of keeping her disabled child. He deserved a life. Both of them did.
