Chapter 14 - Gen 2 - Taylor

Kian loves his new little brother.  I don't know why but watching Kian with Kane reminded me of when Kian had been a baby and just how much he used to cry - constantly he cried.  It only feels like yesterday that Kian was a baby and that small and now look at him all grown up!!

For the past few days Shane has been coming home from school with Tommie, but he actually is spending more time with Kain than Tommie.  They end up jamming all night on their guitars.  Keeley seems quite taken with Shane and they are both already really good friends.  Shane is also a vampire, so he fits in with us quite fine!!  He is quite a nice lad so I dont mind when he sleeps over.

 I am getting a lot of time with Kane, a lot more than Samir because Kandice is being a little madam and demanding all of Samir's attention all of the time!!

"So what are you planning to do when you graduate from school?"

"I think I am going to get a job at the theatre - I'd love a career in music"

"Haven't you ever thought about a career in medicine?"

"No not really why?"

"I just hoped you would - follow your grandma and me and become a doctor"

"We have enough doctors in the family - don't you think!!"

"Well maybe you should give it some thought"

"Mom's nagging me to get a career in medicine - when its not what I want"

"Is she really!!??" Samir started to laugh

"I want a career in music, but Mom says I should think about a career in medicine"

"Take no notice of your Mom, you have to do what makes you happy"

"Can you have a word with her, she is driving me nutz!!"

The three of us were sat watching tv together when suddenly Samir's dads ghost came through the wall and drifted infront of us.  When he spotted Samir he stopped and turned to stand infront of us staring.  Kian never seeing his grandad before nearly jumped out of his own skin, not knowing who it was.

 Then he started laughing and pointing at me

"So you peed yourself in public did you Taylor!!??  Sherman said

"No - its all lies - someone has been spreading rumours"  I told him

"I didn't think you were the sort to do that!!"  he said

 "Hey Dad I wandered when you would be paying us a visit"

"Samir what am I doing here and where is your mother, I seem to have lost her"

"I fetched both of your gravestone from the mausoleum and Mom she is around somewhere I saw her out and about earlier on"

"So who is this hansome young man?" he asked
"Its Kian" Samir said
"Already - he is all grown up!!"

I left them too it, but they were stood there for hours talking between themselves, after a while Kian went to bed and Samir and Sherman did some catching up.

In fact we had quite a busy night ghost wise.  First Sherman, then Blue outside in the hot tub, relaxing, but at least she was not causing anyone any problems!!

Then upstairs on the computer is Lee.  But it beats me how he can be playing on the computer when he has not even got it turned on - maybe he can see something we cant see!!!

 I am wandering if it is a good idea to have all these ghosts wandering around, surely it can not be very good for the children to keep seeing!!

We also have another ghost wandering around, that I had actually forgotten all about until I saw him sleeping upstairs.  Odin Crosby, the vampire that died of thirst on our front garden, his gravestone is still out the front of the house, and even though I pass it everyday when I am going in and out of the house, I kind of don't see it anymore, its part of the landscape.  Maybe we should get it taken to the graveyard.

The day before her birthday, Samir finished off Kandice's potty training.

Today we have a big day ahead of us - three birthdays,  Keeley, Kandice and Kane.
Keeley went first

Kandice second

and lastly Kane

only Kanes birthday did not go so smoothly.  The cake set fire and while Samir panicked and ran out holding Kane and put him outside out of danger, we all panicked, all except for Tommie who quickly extinguished the fire before the fire-fighters arrived.

Kane finally got his birthday later on in the day when all the fire damage had been cleaned up.

We were both a little disappointed with his hair colour - jet black again like Kian.

oh well I guess we will work out where this black hair is coming from one of these days!!
