“So you’re saying that you’ve never had a piece of pumpkin pie? Like in your entire life?” Landon asks me, sounding appalled.

I grin and shake my head. “Never,” I say adamantly.

“But, why?” I have to laugh at how serious he is.

I shrug. “I always assumed it’d taste like a pumpkin smells when you’re cutting it up. Doesn’t it?”

“No, not at all!” he denies quickly, handing me his piece with a large amount of whipped cream on top. I look at it skeptically before taking a small bite. I’m surprised at how good it is.

“Oh, this tastes just like my Nana’s zucchini bread!” I exclaim in amazement.

He narrows his eyes at me. “You’ve tried zucchini bread, but you wouldn’t try pumpkin pie?”

I laugh and nod my head as I take another, larger, bite of his pie. He looks horrified and quickly steals it back. “Get your own!” he admonishes, laughing.

I smile as Adrienne hands me a piece with more whipped topping than Landon’s. He looks jealously at it. “It was supposed to be yours for being nice and giving your first piece to Anna, but then you were selfish, so it’s hers now,” she tells him pointedly.

Brayden and I laugh when Landon grumbles and takes an enormous bite of his own treat.

My time at their house has been amazing. The group was much smaller, for starters, with only his Gramma Ann—a weird coincidence that our names were so similar—and his Grampa Bob. They refused to let me call them Ann and Bob. It had to be Gramma and Grampa. The day was spent laughing around the table, talking, drinking coffee, and playing with the kids outside.

Zander kept asking for presents, still not getting that this was a holiday to be thankful for what you have, not what you get. It was cute, though. I held Nora for the first time, which was awesome. She’s so adorable, and completely different than Zander. Nora is really laid back and calm, taking everything in around her with a silent, peaceful acceptance. Zander, however, is a ball of energy who looks at everything with a newfound excitement and curiosity.

Being around Brayden and his family really makes me wish that I could be a real part of it. Maybe it was time to reconsider our arrangement . . .
