McGraw-1 down, 3 to go


Austin Ray has been slacking off in school lately, and in the McGraw household, that is just unacceptable. To make sure Austin catches up on his homework, Anne has been watching over him to make sure he gets it done.

Alexander has been getting a lot bigger this past round, and he will be heading off to school with Austin before we know it. Ariel has been a big help to her mom and has been taking care of the youngster while Anne fishes, cooks meals, and watches Austin.

Marcus and Anne do find some time to be alone together, even with 3 kids at home and a busy farm. They cuddle together in the orchard while Alex naps and the other kids are at school.

Austin is old enough now to help with the farm. He doesn't like the work, and to be honest he isn't a very good farmer. Marcus understands that these things take time to master, but he is pretty sure he isn't going to leave the farm to Austin.

Ever since Aaron left with Kirsti for college, the house has been not as bright. He was funny and pleasant to be around, not that the other kids aren't though. Ariel is a quiet girl, and she'd rather spend her time reading over being funny. Austin is a bit of a wild child, and Anne knows she's got a future partier on her hands. Alex is a sweet little guy, but he isn't quite old enough to be "pleasant". All in all, the McGraws were very busy this past round, and will be extremely happy that Alex will soon be a child.
