Sophie felt the king sized bed being weighed down, she opened her eyes and expected to see her husband, Joshua but it was her three year old twin girls, she got up and picked them up, she was still expecting to see Josh starting his day but it was just six months that Josh was taken away by that horrible disease called non-smokers Lung Cancer, she had that Sara Evans song, A Little Bit Stronger in her head, it wasn't getting any better being the widow of a well known celebrity especially when she wasn't a size zero.
Sophie was on the heavy side but that didn't stop Josh from pursuing her, he courted her like a gentleman, they didn't rush with their relationship, they were together for two years before Josh asked her to marry him after asking her Father's permission, she was a Southern Belle coming from North Carolina.
Sophie carried the girls downstairs and into the living room, she asked which Disney Princess movie would they want to watch, they want to watch Cinderella so she put it on and told them she would make them Mickey Mouse chocolate chip pancakes, so she went in the kitchen and started breakfast as she was stirring the batter, she looked at her engagement and wedding rings, and felt sad and betrayed that Josh was taken away from his girls, she poured the batter into the Mickey Mouse griddle and sprinkled some chocolate chips into the batter and made the pancakes.
She called the girls into the kitchen and helped the girls into their booster seats, Josh even helped her with the girls even if he was extremely weak from the chemotherapy that riddled his body, the last six weeks of his life were depressing, Josh was angry that he was dying and had to leave his girls, Sophie always asked him why he chose her and not some model that was a size zero to be his wife and he always say he loved her curves, she loved that man to the day she found him dead in their bed, the Cancer had taken him during the night, she immediately called her in-laws and Josh's friends and lastly her parents and siblings in North Carolina.
