Chapter 3
It didn't take long for the triplets to begin their mornings early and end their days late. It was usually well after midnight before they were actually asleep, which didn't help for the exhausted Tragic as he worked early every morning for his job at the hospital. But, he still helped Agnes out when he would get home; he'd come up where she would be passed out int he rocking chair in the nursery and help with the skill building that she had been doing earlier.
On occasion when he would have the time before going to work really early in the morning he would spend a little time to himself, as Agnes was still passed out and so were the kids. His activities would vary between picking up the mess that had accumulated, that Agnes' magic couldn't take care of, or doing a recreational activity out in the snow before it melted away for spring.
It was late in the day that Agnes discovered who the magic users were in her little flock, she stared down at them with such pride in her eyes.
While Jolie didn't show any signs of being a witch, Agnes felt it even more crucial to spend time with her, not wanting her to feel left out for not acquiring the gift her two sisters had gotten. Of course, I forgot to get a couple pictures of her showing Jolie how to talk or walk. But it happened, both Agnes and Tragic took turns teaching the tots how to walk or talk. But Agnes took care of the potty training.
They also all got one of the imaginary friends in the mail from some distant relative that owns a magic toy shop. But Henny would not have them forgetting her.
"Tragic?" Agnes asked one evening while they were downstairs eating their food, Henny upstairs watching the tots.
"Yes?" he asked calmly, he could hear the anxiety in her voice, he knew what this was about.
"When are we going to tell them?" she asked, she was quiet, her voice was soft compared to how it usually carried in the house.
"When they're old enough. They're too young to understand anything like that right now."
"Yeah I guess you're right."
"Exactly, now let's put them to bed, it's late."
Agnes was far from calmed about the idea, she would have to tell her children about the Legacy, and she dreaded the day. But Tragic was right, that wouldn't come for a long while, she would tell them just before their Young Adult birthday. So with a heavy heart she went upstairs with Tragic to put them to bed for the evening.
The following morning Agnes realized where her fears were coming from, the tots would be aging up soon. Their toddler time was passing so quickly, so she spent as much time as she could teaching them their skills. She made sure that by the end of Snowflake Day, the children knew to walk, talk, and use the potty. Of course she couldn't have done it all without Tragic. So Snowflake Day ended and they put the tots to bed early, tomorrow was the day that they would become children, and they could really begin to show what they wanted with their lives.
The following afternoon they were taken to their cakes to age up. First went Abigail, who gained the
Athletic trait.
Second was Haillie, gaining the
Computer Whiz trait.
and finally went Jolie, gaining the
Rebellious trait.

I know this one was rather short and really rushed, but I intend to do a toddler spam next so you can see the pictures I just didn't know how to work with here. They're adorable yes, but I just wasn't sure how to make it work in the story. Anyways, I'm gonna try and slow things down a bit, I'm just further in my game than I am in the story and I guess sorta makes me rush. Anyways though. I only play whenever my husband isn't home which is why the posts aren't very consistent. So I try to get far enough in the game that I can post a chapter whenever I get the computer. Then I play some more.
Hope you enjoy it so far though, lemme know what you think, I would really appreciate the feedback.
