Clara giggled. "Dukey, that is the worst sounding female I have ever heard. Even Mookie sounds better than that.  And she isn't much more than a few cells."Clara gave Dukey a kiss on his cheek, hip bumped him and said "Lady with a mess of babies needs room, move your butt over." She looked at him, "I almost feel guilty having you here in my bed, but I am glad you are here. Daddy has never left me alone, and it will be hard not having him around in the morning. I will just snuggle up with you tonight Dukey. After all that puking today, I think I just need a good nights rest."<br/><br/>She turned off the lamp, gave him a deep kiss, then laid her head on his chest, wrapping her arm over him. "Good night, Dukey."
