Pleased that Zelda seemed to be more at ease, Elsie hoped she had been able to help. She had so few friends, that she always wanted to do whatever she could. "You're very welcome." She smiled softly.

At Zelda's question, Elsie could only chuckle. "That is a great question." They'd always kept the baby in their room to start, but Maisie had made the transition to the nursery well enough. Ben seemed to enjoy his own room and his own toys. "In with us for a little while, let everybody adjust." She always felt better too, having the newborn close by. "I suppose it depends on who gets outnumbered this time." Elsie had a sneaking suspicion it was another girl, something about this pregnancy was more like Maisie's than Ben's, but she wasn't brave enough to say anything to anyone about it lest she be wrong and people got their hopes up.

"I'm not too sure how Maisie will take to sharing, but only time will tell." She shrugged, laughing. "And then I think I too might take a little break." Three babies, all eighteen months apart was a lot for anyone.
