<div style="text-align: justify;">Sarah smiled when Adam said they would bring lots of extra batteries with them to the zoo. She would make sure of that, as she was usually the one in charge of packing up for any family outing. "I know she will, and it'll be really fun for us all. We can pick the best ones and make them a small mural", she commented. Sarah loved making small things for the children, so they had good memories from the occasions when the family could do something special.<br/><br/>When Adam laughed and said he was an ogre, Sarah chuckled and kissed him before speaking.<br/><br/>"You are, but you're still <span style="font-style: italic">my</span> ogre, and I love you", she replied in a light-hearted intonation.<br/><br/>Once on the couch with Adam, Sarah snuggled closer to him, satisfied with just beiing there and relaxing with her husband while the kids were in bed. Sure, they were not rich. But they were in their home, the bills were paid, and the kids were clothed and fed. That was enough to make Sarah content.<br/><br/>While the show ran on TV, Sarah thought about their past. She had been terribly scared when she had gotten pregnant with Ben. Both she and Adam were young, and she was terrified that he would either break up with her or ask her to get rid of the baby. That was something she would never have done. Luckily, she had chosen a good man to be with, and he had taken care of everything. Maggie had come at a better place in their lives, and Sarah would love to have more children, but she was prudent enough to know that they simply couldn't afford another one.<br/><br/>When Adam commented on the commercial, Sarah turned her attention to it. She read the text on the screen and nodded. "I know, we could do so much for the kids and us", she replied.<br/><br/>After reflecting for a moment or two, she looked at Adam. "Try out for it", she requested softly. She knew her husband well enough to know the expression on his face. "We'll all support you".</div>
