Why would him having a child be that big of a deal....it happens!!! She should talk to him that is always the best option.

Quite a journey for Bella and Edward. Falling fast and hard for each other.  Secrecy on campus until graduation. 12 minute expert. Always under time constraints for one reason or another. Edward keeping some very serious secrets that could have ruined their relationship earlier on if he hadn't been pinned down and honest about them. Once meeting those two adorable boys who wouldn't have fallen head over heels for them. Both with their own distinct personalities. Loved Kevin's smart mouth made me chuckle often. Actually reminds me of my son, Joe. He has that dry wit and when he was younger loved the way he would pronounce things like Kevin. Eg. Hungry was hungree and lunch was runch. The age gap between Kevin and Tessa is the same as Joe and Katie and he wanted to bring her in for show and tell to class. Thankfully Sister Fran talked him out of it. She said she would meet Katie when we picked him up from school. So many of their memories with children were so cute.  Being with the grandparents for the holidays I loved those. Charlie and fishing. The leaving with Jessica for their time with their mom broke my heart. Angry at her behavior towards Bella in the beginning like she had any right to talk. She remarried,dated while still married to Edward, even got pregnant by someone else while they were married and he was away. She wanted it all. Her boys, her new husband, and Edward alone and available to her beck and call. almost like she still had rights to him and his life. Like he couldn't be happy with someone else. Also that whoever he chose wouldn't interact with her boys.  Bella treated her boys with love and kindness. Of course, they would fall in love with her too. she coddled them, cuddled them, lavished them with affection along with their father. She attended their activities and the special events of their lives. Having them call her mommy or mom was only natural. And emotional for Bella. Loved Kevin when he couldn't wait to marry her too. Liked the colored sand for the unity of the family. Finally their budding rose, Tessa Rose, she was those most colorful character of them all. adored by all. A part of all the families and then combined them all. a true melting pot and further element to cement them all. Was pleased that Jessica came to her senses before she made it so difficult to ever see the boys again. Bella was very gracious accepting her apology and ill treatment from Jessica, I don't know if I would have been so nice and forgiving. Nasty harassing phone calls in the middle of the night,  knowing she was doing it deliberately just to get back at Edward. Claws and blood would be drawn, it wouldn't help the boys, but she would know it wasn't appreciated or acceptable.  I might have made those Skype calls when I knew it was inappropriate time in England just once to prove a point to her and irritate Eric. Have her know what it feels like to be woken in the middle of the night thinking something wrong had happened in the family instead of just someone's shoes might be a little tight or some other lame excuse. I don't know about you, but when my phone rings in the middle of the night, normally means someone is in the hospital or has died. Never good news.  Emnjoyed it from start to finish.
