 Name: Jessica Nicole Age: Twenty-eight Gender: Female About: Jessica- or Jes or Jessie, as she prefers to be called- is a young fashion designer on the up and up living in Durem. Having grown up in a small, simple area in Barton Town with her farming family, she discovered she had a talent for drawing and sewing early on in her life. Larger than life, she knew her small town couldn't contain her forever, and was soon enough whisking herself off to Durem to study fashion at a small but respected school for design. Having just launched her own line with relative success, the single Jes knew that something was missing from her life. The parties, the designing, the showing, her friends... All were wonderful, but there was still something... missing. Going through her e-mail one day, clearing out her junk inbox, she came across a curious advertisement to adopt... a cabbage? Deciding that there was no better time than Christmas to adopt, she flew herself out to the Patch, and picked out a particularly full cabbage to call her own.

 Jessica's Journal:
January 2nd, 2007: As I sit here on the train, going back to my Durem apartment... I have to question myself. Really, Jes. Cabbage children? What on earth were you thinking? Really, I had just gone to look, to feel things out... And I ended up adopting a child. Two children, actually. What makes me think I'm ready for this? And then I reflect on the feeling I experienced... Something warm and right, like an brand new sweater, just a size too big, but oh-so comfortable and warm. It was... It was right, I think. Not that I know the first thing about being a mother. I'm nearly thirty, of course, I'm plenty old enough... But twins? And so soon? I keep getting shakes at random. What if I'm not cut out to be a mother? These little lives, in my hands... Do all parents feel like this? Did my mother, my father? I should call them, let them know that they're grandparents... But it'd be so sudden! And how could I explain something like this to them over the phone? It wouldn't be right. I'll probably start making travel arrangements to go visit them as soon as the twins are... born. I'm smiling now, my latest bout of shakes having passed. God, but what fun it would be to show up with two little babies in tow. Mom would love it. She'd spoil them to death, I think, and then where would I be? Dad would... Hmm. I don't know, exactly, what Dad would do. I know he wants grandchildren... Of course he does. But he's a little old fashioned, I know... I worry he'll reject them because they aren't my flesh-and-blood children. Perhaps I should tell them over the phone? Ugh, I'm jumping all over the place. Of course, my thoughts are jumping all over the place! Children. I have children now. I have my own company, my own home... And now children. No husband or wife, of course, but who needs that? I'm content on my own. Well, on my own with my cabbage children. I'm getting giddy again. Children to love and dress and all that fun stuff. I'm ready for the hard work. I know it will be hard work- especially on my own. But I think I can handle it. I will handle it, because now I feel... completed. Completed and ready to be a mother.
January 13th, 2007 I've had my cabbages for nearly one and a half weeks now... And I must say, I'm eager for them to be... born? To hatch? I don't know what the proper term would be for it. I'll settle with born, since these two small lives are going to be mine. My children. It still gives me that stereotypical warm, fuzzy feeling low in my belly to think about it. Every day I tend to them. I follow all the directions I was given to the 't'. I know I'm doing everything correctly, but I still worry I'll mess this up. I know I should just laugh at myself for being so silly and worrisome, but I figure that part of a mother's job is to worry too much, so maybe I really am doing a good job after all! Mom and Dad came to visit me, surprisingly! They were... concerned, at first. But maybe as they touched the small cabbages, they could feel the same little lives that I could, and Dad came right out and said that he was proud of me for making such a mature decision. Motherhood looks good on me, is what he said. Again, that warm and fuzzy feeling spreads all over, because I feel like I'm doing everything I need to be doing in life. I started working on a new line, as well. I do, after all, have a family to support now. I thought that, in spirit of the new additions to my household, that it should be more... organic. Environmentally friendly fabrics, bold greens and subtle browns... I'm excited. I've been sewing the samples myself, by hand, to get back into touch with what I got into fashion for in the first place. It's nice, sitting with my children- Ginger and Zemel. I finally settled on names. Ginger for the girl, and Zemel for the boy. At least, I'm pretty sure one is male and one is female, but I think the names will be able to switch alright, if my guesses are off. I'm designing the line with them in mind, so I may or may not add in some child clothes as well. If inspiration hits for such clothing, then of course, I'll do it. I don't like to obstruct or force the flow of my work. At any rate, I do believe it's time to set aside my laptop, bring out some of my sewing, and keep my cabbages company.
