What a mess! Toys, books, garbage, and other random objects lay everywhere! Chelsea had never seen such a house like this. But she did not judge them yet. They did have four wild children on their hands!
Just then, a woman that looks to be about 29 years old walked into what looked to be a living room.
"Oh hello! You must be Chelsea. I'm Laura and that's Ashton. I believe you just met. Take a seat, don't be shy!" welcomed the woman as she motioned for Chelsea to sit.
"Annabelle, Dorothy, Millie!" called Ashton.
"Doug is sleeping. He'll probably wake up in a hour. They haven't had dinner yet, so I hope you can come up with something. Just make sure you give them a fruit or veggie with it." said Laura.
"Okay. Um...can you show me where you keep your band-aids?" asked Chelsea politely.
"Sure thing. Why don't you meet the girls first, though? Did I tell you their ages?" asked Laura.
"Yes, you did." said Chelsea.
As if right on cue, all three girls paraded into the living room. First was(Chelsea guessed) the 6 year old Dorothy. Dorothy had short, curly blonde hair, blue-green eyes, and a look of wonder on her face.
Next was Annabelle, the 8 year old. Annabelle looked a lot like Millie, who came last. The eight and three year olds both had red hair down to their shoulders, green eyes, and while Millie bore the look of wonder, Annabelle had a look of dread.
"Who is she?" asked Millie, pointing to Chelsea.
"Her name is Chelsea Trust. She's going to be your babysitter for tonight." answered Ashton.
"Hey guys!" said Chelsea, waving.
The girls were skeptical, but who would blame them? The Alquist girls have never seen this 'so called' Chelsea Trust in their lives, and yet their parents left them alone with her? How absurd!
"Girls, you behave for Chelsea now. Help her out with Doug. She's going to make dinner for you while Daddy and I are out. We'll be back after you go to bed." said Laura.
"Okay." said all three girls in unison.
"Will we see you tomorrow though?" asked little Millie.
"Yes, yes. We'll be here when you wake up. Goodbye girls." said Ashton as Laura gave the children kisses.
"Bye!" said Millie and Dorothy as their parents walked out the door.
They never showed me where the band-aids were, thought Chelsea.
Once the door was shut, the trouble began...

Victoria Hope Talean (Part 7)
The crash Victoria heard was deafening, as she hit her head on the passenger seat of the Talean's mini van.
Makayla, who was on Torie's left side, did the same, only harder. Margrett, Kayla's older sister, was in the passenger seat up front bracing herself. Margrett didn't have her seat belt on, so she bounced up when the van crashed into another vehicle and hit her head on the roof of the van.
Torie's head throbbed, but she payed more attention to the driver - Mom. Mom had it worse.
When the wind shield shattered, it shot all over. Since Margrett was in the front seat, she got hit with glass the most out of all three girls, but it was nothing compared to Mom.
Torie closed her eyes. She wanted to disappear. She stole a quick glance at Kayla. Kayla was not moving.Her eyes were shut, forehead swollen, and head bobbling from side to side.
That was when Victoria lost it. Sure, she had been scared before, but that was nothing now... Torie knew Kayla was dead next to her.
Torie woke up frightened. She had never dreamed of something so real as the one she had witnessed.
What if that really did happen?What would I do if it did?, Victoria asked herself.
The dream disturbed her so much, that when she got out of bed, she was shaking. She wanted to go and see Kayla, even though Torie knew that the dream was not real, so that she could double check.To bad the Talean family had other plans, though.
It had been four days since Jackie and Tracy had that accident. Tracy was fine, Jackie was fine, all ended well. Except, of course, Jackie had to get her stitches removed that day. Jackie, Mom, and Dad were the only ones going, so that left the other three kids with a babysitter - Tara Graham.
Tara Graham was a fifteen year old girl who had caramel colored hair with bright blue highlights(not surprising since her favorite color was blue), a pierced nose, pierced ears(going all the way up), and hazel eyes. She wasn't a very good money saver, hence she got stuck with a babysitting job. Tara was pretty cool, once you get to know her. She was the Talean's regular babysitter.
Though the sight of her pierced nose and ears made Torie want to throw up, Torie really liked her. She always brought over movies she rented -with her unsaved money- every time she babysat so she didn't even have to watch the kids all that much. That day, she brought over The Avengers. It was rated PG-13. Personally, Torie thought that Zach was a little to young to watch it, but Mom and Dad didn't mind.
Torie didn't like the movie in the end. But Kayla would have probably liked it. There seemed to be an unwritten rule that whatever Torie didn't like, Kayla did.
By the time the movie was done, Mom, Dad, and Jackie had been home for half a hour. Jackie was upset since she didn't get to what the whole movie, but Torie told her that it wasn't worth spending that much time watching a 'dumb movie'.
"Oh, all right. I'll take your word for it. After all, you are my sister." said Jaqueline.
Torie smiled.
Tara stayed until one o'clock when she said she had to meet a friend at the clothing store.
Not surprising,thought Torie.
Torie guessed the friend she was meeting was probably Jeanette Zolin, Tara's best friend.
Victoria asked Tara about it before she left.
"I'm gonna meet Addison Truelock. She's Carter Truelock's brother." stated Tara as her eyes started to look dreamy. Victoria nodded as though she knew who that was, but truthfully didn't have even a idea of what Tara was talking about.
Tara didn't notice and just kept mumbling about Carter.
Victoria heard bits and pieces like,"...he's in tenth grade" and "... he is probably the best student in the whole high school" and "I adore him...".
That's when Justin interrupted. "Oh I've heard of him! Best football player there is!"
Justin was going into ninth grade next school year, so he already started to learn about high school.
Torie rolled her eyes.
I've had enough!, thought Torie. Football is so boring...

Babysitter: Chelsea Trust PART 3
On Thursday, Chelsea was just about ready for her 1st babysitting experience. She thought she might as well bring a few toys from when Peyton was a baby. Of course, that was not long ago since Peyton is only eight.
So there she was, packing up toys in her blue duffel bag in the living room. She was going to be dropped off in 30 minutes at the Alquist's house. The Alquists had four kids- Annabell, Dorothy, Millie, and Doug. But it wasn't the number of kids that was the problem, it was their ages.
Annabelle was 8, Dorothy was 6, Millie was 3, and Doug was almost one. Talk about a handful!
Yes sir, this was going to be a challenge.
"Good luck with your babysitting job, Chelsea." said Nathan Isaiah Trust.
"Thanks, I'm probably going to need it! Especially if I have four kids that are 8, 6,3, and eleven months old!" Chelsea joked.
The two siblings laughed together. Out of all the kids in the Trust family, Chelsea was totally closest to Nathan, even though he was 13.
Just then, James walked in, ruining the brother/sister moment.
"Nathan, I need to talk to you." said James.
"Why?" asked Nathan not moving.
"Because I do." said James.
"James, I asked why." said Nathan.
"Nathan, I said because I do..." said James coldly.
Chelsea and Nathan could tell that James was having a bad day.
"Well, then you'll have to wait, because I am already talking to Chelsea." said Nathan peacefully.
James scowled. Then he turned around and went to Mason and his room.
Just seconds later, Mason came into the living room.
"He kick you out?" said Nathan chuckling.
Mason nodded and then took a seat next to Chelsea.
"So you're babysitting the Alquists, huh?" asked Mason in a big brother way.
"Yup." said Chelsea still packing.
"Don't they have four kids under nine?" asked Mason.
Chelsea nodded. "An eight year old, a six year old, a three year old, and a eleven month old."
"Cool. Conrad said his sister babysat them once." remarked Mason.
Chelsea just nodded.
Fortunately, it was time to go by the time she was finished packing the duffel bag full of toys. So Chelsea and Mom hopped into their 15- passenger van.
"Now Chelsea, remember you're first-aid training if anything goes wrong. And you know you can always call me or the Alquists if you don't know what to do." said Mom for the one-hundredth time.
"Mmm hmm..." said Chelsea nodding her head.
Chelsea was in her own world, though. She was still thinking when the Trusts pulled into the driveway. They were still ten minutes early.
"Okay, dear. I'll be back to pick you up when you call me. I hope you have a fun time with the kids. Bye!" Mom gave Chelsea a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Bye Mom. See you later." replied Chelsea as she grabbed her bag and opened the side door.
Chelsea jumped out of the van. It was raining, so Chelsea quickly ran to the door and ran the doorbell.
Ding, Dong...Ding,Dong...
The door opened quickly and a man in his early thirties appeared.
"Hello, you must be the babysitter we've been waiting for. I'm sorry, but it seems I have forgot your name. Do you mind saying it again for me?" asked the man.
"It's Chelsea. And yours is...?"
"Ashton Alquist. I'd prefer if you just call me Ashton instead of all that mumbo jumbo Mr. and Mrs. stuff." said Ashton. Chelsea could tell he was very open to speak his mind.
"Okay. May I come in?" asked Chelsea politely.
"Oh yes! I am sorry about that. Come on in, Chelsea." said Ashton stepping aside.
Chelsea stepped inside. A surprise met her there...

Ylvis - What does the Fox Say?
I know this is not a Christian music video, but this is a must see! I laughed my head off! So did my whole family. I got even the little ones to sing, "What does the fox say?" Listen to this and it'll be stuck in your head. I PROMISE! LOL!!!

Abbandon - Hero
I tried to search for the artist of this song for two years. Finally, this year I found who it was by.
This video is sort of intense, but I thought it would be okay since it gives you what really happened to Jesus when he was crucified. You might want to look away when he is hanging on the cross though. It makes me realize that how much pain it was to Jesus Christ.
