Life had returned to normal, well as normal as a house could be with a preteen little boy on my hands. He went from spending time playing pirates in the treehouse to being on that darn phone.

Going Solo: Kerri 2.15
Our house grew by one. Sha loved animals and thought that Davis needed a puppy to grow up with. (currently forgot what I named him) Davis loved the little puppy and who was I to say no to a face like that?

Going Solo: Kerri 2.11
Davis had both Sha and I wrapped around his little finger. He was adorable, and generally a very good baby. I would spend hours just watching him sleep. Sha and I split the late night feedings and diaper changes. The doctors said we wouldn't know until his birthday if he had inherited his father's vampire genes or not. It was a 50/50 chance he could be a vampire. I hoped he'd be human, but it if he was a vamp, I'd learn all I could so that I could make sure he grew up properly.
Mom and Dad came to visit. They were instantly in love with Davis and I barely got to hold him while they were here. Mom was even talking about retiring so she could move closer. I noticed while she and Dad were here, that they seemed to be 'extra' close. I'd never had any illusions about their relationship growing up, but I had to admit it was nice to see my parents together.

Going Solo: Gen 2.9 Kerri
I woke up the next morning with a heavy heart. I looked at the picture on my desk from prom and I got angry. Picking it up I dumped it in the trash then called Mom. In times like these, not matter how grown you are, you need your mommy. She said she'd be right over. I also called Shasha, but she was at work so I had to leave a message. Mom arrived around thirty minutes later and instantly pulled me into a hug.

Going Solo: Gen 2.6 Kerri
I was enjoying being on my own. The place was great, with wonderful views. I was most excited for Boyd to come over, but he was again busy. His mom was doing everything in her power to keep him away from me because I wasn't like them. If she would just take the time to get to know me, she'd know that I was a pretty great person. We did talk or text a lot and he promised to come by soon. I also kept in touch with Shasha, I missed her. She promised to come out for a visit. Mom came by to check it out, she was still hurting over Lenny plus being on her own. We made plans to do weekly lunch, that seemed to make her happy.

Going Solo: Gen 2.5 Kerri
Being back home was nice. Mom was very excited to have me back, she didn't like that I went out of state for school. Of course in true Mom fashion, she wanted to celebrate my return and graduation with a party. I wasn't a fan of big parties, but I agreed to make her happy.

Going Solo: Gen 2.4: Kerri
After semester break, it was hard to go back to living in the dorms. I had forgotten how much I missed my old bed, and the quiet. Mom and Lenny hadn't set a date yet, she wanted to wait until I finished my last term at university so I could help her plan things. Sadly I didn't see Boyd much on break. We talked some, but his mom kept him 'busy'.

Going Solo: Gen 2.1-Kerri
Now that mom and Lenny were engaged, the 'spark' seemed to return to their relationship. Not that it ever really left, but, well let's just say it didn't matter that our house wasn't small. Too keep my mind off what they were doing, I texted Boyd often. He would come by after work and keep me 'company'. I liked being with Boyd.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.15
Today was a bittersweet day, Kerri was growing up. Time was passing way too quickly. I started to get a little teary eyed at the idea, but Lenny knew just how to cheer me up.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.14
Living with Lenny I was beginning to see where all his money went. He seemed to have a bit of a drinking problem. He was having juice at all times during the day or night. He still went to work and he was trying to help cover some of the bill, but he was in debt so I didn't want to take too much of his money knowing I could cover the household bills on my own. I was very grateful to have him around when a burglar tried to break into the house.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.13
With age comes wisdom and regret. Or at least that's how it is for Matt. Now that he has reached elder status and facing his mortality, he is rethinking his life. That thought process seems to be directed at his daughter. Kerri was getting to know her father finally and I was happy for that. He would come over just to hang out, or help her with her homework even though she really didn't need it.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.12
Kerri was the first to wish me happy birthday. I wasn't as happy about getting older as she was. Being an adult meant wrinkles and wrinkles were bad for a woman's career. Men got better with age but women just aged. Getting older didn't stop me from throwing myself a party. I never had one and I was going to celebrate regardless.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.11
Being a featured actress wasn't too bad. I got speaking roles but none that were major. I have to say I was very cute as the french maid in the latest film, and I was already in character when I had to clean up after our dishwasher broke.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.10
Now that Kerri was older, I was putting more time into my career. I needed to get things back on track if I was ever going to become a big name actress. I had an upcoming role and spent time working on making sure I knew my lines. Sometimes I felt like I wasn't spending enough time with Kerri and I made up for that with material things she asked me for. She was a smart girl, and all of her requests were usually something educational, so even more reason to say yes.

Going Solo: Gen 1.9
It seemed like just yesterday I was bringing Kerri home from the hospital, but today was another birthday for her. My baby was growing up into a little girl. I of course planned another party for her. She had to have the best, always! I invited Matt and he showed up, with his new woman of the moment Lala Angelista.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.8
Time sure flew by and before I knew it, it was time for Kerri's birthday. I wanted to give her a big party because I never had one when I grew up. I was surprised when Matt actually showed up. Kerri grew into a very adorable toddler.

Going Solo: Gen 1.7
It was a cold and rainy Spooky Day as I headed to the hospital. Once I was settled into my room, I called Matt to tell him I was in labor. I didn't expect him to show up, but much to my surprise he did. He stayed with me the whole time and was there when our daughter was born. I named her Kerrington, Kerri for short, and she was beautiful. Matt thought the name was too much, but I said she needed to have strong and unique name. He couldn't argue too much since he wasn't putting his name on the birth certificate.

Going Solo: Gen 1.6
I was still getting sick so I finally went to the market to get a home pregnancy test. After the first one, I took a few more because I really wanted the outcome to be different. But they weren't, there on the screen of the little stick was the word PREGNANT.

Going Solo: Gen 1.5
I went by to visit mom. She had settled in nicely at Alan's place. It was huge and she gave me the grand tour. They had already set up a nursery and he made her a nice painting corner. She was being treated like a queen and she deserved it.

Going Solo: Gen. 1.4
Stuff was still breaking and I began thinking it was time to look for a better place. I had been promoted from Key Grip to Alan Stanley's personal assistant. That job came with a nice bonus and pay raise. If I was lucky, I would be able to find a nice one bedroom place that wasn't going to be crazy high in rent.
