Both jumped into her arms almost knocking her over as she picked them up. Randy kissed her cheek a split second before Brandon announcing himself as the winner. All three beamed. Sienna never grew tired of this game and loved the bonding and soothing effect it had on all of them. To the boys it was competi- tion. Sienna knelt down again putting them on the floor.
Okay guys get your stuff she said. The race resumed. This time as they gathered their belongings Brandon was running to- wards Sienna bag and coat being dragged in tow. Randy won the race after Brandon collided with a little girl who stepped into the hall to investigate the commotion. Fortunately for the little girl she hit the wall back first. Brandon just kept coming after bouncing from the human obstacle as if nothing happened.
Sienna assisted them with their belongings, checked them from the nursery and took them to the car. Once buckling the dynamic duo to the back seat, Sienna headed home.
The boys sang along with the radio as if they were the origi- nal artists, while Sienna smiled at their joy. She pulled into the driveway, and the boys took off like a flash after being unbuck- led.

Sienna picked up the remainder of her brothers’ belongings and went back upstairs to their room. The doorbell rang.
“Sienna, the door,” Randy shouted.
When she didn’t answer shortly, the bell chimed again. “Okay guys, I’ll be down in a minute,” Sienna answered. A third time the chime sounded.
