It seemed for the Flint Family, that time was just flying by without a chance to grasp at it and pause it. Theo and Titan were already four years old and growing bigger, and stronger, every day - they were almost up to Sidney's hip now and their hair was changing from that baby blonde to black like their Adda's hair color.
Calla had just turned two years old, and she was with long blonde hair that curled up and went to the middle of her back - she was a bundle of energy all by herself, but you mix in her two older brothers and life for Sidney and Silas was a constant on-the-go we-can't-stop-now mess of craziness.
Just recently Sidney and Silas put a down payment on a new house out in Queens. They had a large backyard, six bedrooms now and so much more space than what they knew what to do with half the time. Silas hated having to leave his apartment, but his family was quickly outgrowing the four bedroom apartment, and a bigger house was absolutely necessary.
It had been a good thing, buying the new house when they did and getting moved in - they wanted to celebrate Calla's second birthday in their new home and they just barely managed to get everything done in time before her birthday. As it was, they were unable to get Calla the present that they truly wanted to get her, and that's what they were doing today - getting Calla a pet to call her own, because Theo would not share Jasper, and Duke was not exactly fond of Calla - they couldn't understand it or explain that one, but they knew that their daughter was upset because 'big puppy' wouldn't play with her when she wanted.
Silas sighed as he held the squirming little puppy in his lap, looking curiously at Sidney "Are you sure Calla is going to like her?" he asked as Sidney drove them toward the house - Silas was holding an eight week old Border Collie in his lap, and she was small but she had big paws to grow into and she would very much grow into them soon. Silas was not fond of the small breed dog, preferring to have larger animals, but this was for his little princess and he would get her anything she wanted.
