Caroline and Bert had been dating for years, Jared never liked the idea of their mom dating their high school principal but he seemed to make her happy so he suffered in silence. Caroline and Bert had gone away for two weeks on vacation to the beach, on a Saturday afternoon they finally returned, the kids were glad to see their mom again.

Caroline was happy, more thoughly happy then she had been in her life since before Paulo's birth. It did hit her for a brief second that after she and Bert were married she would be the sister in law of her first love..Nick. Caroline decided to not think about that now, she was going to live for the happiness she felt at this very moment.
