It's about time I've set up a journal for first boy! Let me give you a brief overview of what's been happening leading up to present day. Mind you, most of this is the compressed version (because I'm just lazy, itchy and my right eye is really starting to bother me..).
After we got Rome, Ducky and I decided we wanted to have children before we got married, don't ask why, we just did. We knew that marriage was just a whole bunch of legal stuff we didn't feel like going through yet, but we do want to have children. So we got ahold of Jen who pointed us towards Nell (wierdest person on the planet), she took samples of our hair and we received two cute little pebbles a couple weeks later.
From what I can tell Rome loved having everyone around. He's such a relaxed kid. Very... Zen... Ducky's looking into getting him playing some type of chinese instrument. As long as he's happy and he gets good quickly I'll be alright.. But Treble was very good with his little brother Troy and sister Florence while things were calm. Him being good with them hasn't changed, but the calmness has...
About the time they had hatched, Lundy and I got into a big fight over a whole bunch of little things. One of which was how to raise our two twins and surfing and he ended up thinking that I loved to surf more than I loved him. I couldn't surf right now if I wanted to, I can only see out of one eye! And it'd be nice if I could stop itching... How redic... Alright, this isn't about me. This is about him.
So I had promised Treble another visit to the HQ to visit his friend and so I brought Troy along with me. I didn't really want to go back home to the fighting and subject the boys to it, so I left Florence with Lundy and should have gone to my fathers house. But, kept my promise.
One promise I wish I didn't keep.
There was a disease called SMOG going around in the HQ that we didn't know about and the three of us got infected instantly. They don't really know 100% about what's going on yet, but they have a general idea that it's genetic or something like that.
But now Troy is extremly sick and Treble seems to be losing his hearing. He was never one of those kids that ignored his parents or tryed to block them out, but lately his Ipod is getting louder and louder and he is getting harder to get ahold of. Like he checks out for a little while and he scratches his body when he thinks no one is looking. It's not that he doesn't shower, he does. But he's also starting to get more timid when I try to talk to him.
Yesterday I turned down his Ipod and he frusteratedly asked me why I turned it off, and spoke loudly then asked me why I was whispering. Mabey he's going deaf? But if he is, would it be because he listens to the music all the time or because of the SMOG? Only time will tell.
I'm worried.
