Rhodes

Good God. Poor Poppy. And that’s amazing. Another little Fox to love. Or should I say, big Fox? He’s so cute!

Henley

That is one fine boy. So happy for you guys.

Weston

That was so fast! Wow, he’s perfect.

Bowie

It was too fast for Poppy to get an epidural. She is my hero.

He reminds me so much of Jonas! I can’t wait to see him. Give Poppy our love and get some rest. Love you guys.

Bowie

Love you too. I’m still reeling about all the baby news. Excited our new slew of kids will grow up together too.

Henley

I still can’t wrap my mind around it. Best day ever.

Weston

Yeah, Penn is right. There’s definitely something in the Luminary coffee.

I’m chuckling as I crawl into bed. Addy smiles up at me.

“What is it?”

“Did you hear from Poppy?” I ask.

She holds up her phone, showing me a picture of Elias.

“Isn’t he just the best?” She sighs.

I lean over and kiss her before working my way down to her stomach. I slide my hand over her stomach and place soft kisses there.

“It’s hard to believe there’s a little baby tucked away in there,” I say.

“I think it hasn’t fully sunk in,” Addy whispers. “But I can’t wait, Penn. Every day with you and Sam and Winnie…I feel like I’m on this huge adventure where I can’t wait to wake up in the morning to see what life will bring. I’m ready for whatever comes our way.”

I smile up at her. “Me too. As long as we’re together, I’m ready for anything.”

EPILOGUE

LEGACY

PENN

Luminary smells like another day in paradise, rich coffee, sweet syrups, and the breeze coming in from the screen door. I walk back to the meeting room where the guys are already seated around the round table.

“It’s so quiet in here,” I say.

“You’re the one who brings the noise,” Rhodes says and then he laughs because he knows he’s just as loud as I am.
