Pandora slips Chloe into her sling and with her snug against her body she goes downstairs...stopping at the bar she orders an omlet with orange juice and carries a hot coffee to the table with her. Seeing Gunnar and the others laughing , she decides that she will join them. "Hello,have room for a starving mother?"...she says as she slips into a chair. Gunnnar looks with approval as Monty brings her breakfast; toast and hashbrowns accompanying the egg dish.

Pandora wonders at Cassie with her face buried in Keon's shoulder....."Did you rest well?...our beds have top quality mattresses." From the laughter that rises around the table she knows they were not thinking of rest,and she knew she hadn't last night either. Star has tears in her eyes and it is not long before someone blurts out that Cassie is pregnant too. '"Oh my gosh; "Pandora looks to Alise and then to Cassie's beautiful face and says..."It must be something in the water here; I don't think I have ever seen so many people follow each other so closely having children."

Pandora says with sincerity to Keon and Cassie..."You will have a beautiful child...."noting that they both sport a lock of hair matching the other's in their front tresses,she surmises it is magic of some sort.  The riders by now are joking about drinking brew and not water because they want no such condition in their lives.
Pandora can tell from the slack feel of Chloe's body that she has fallen asleep...she draws her gently from the sling and cradles her in one arm while she eats...it was difficult to eat with her in front . What a morning of surprises she thinks to herself...what will the rest of the day bring.
