She was so gladdened by the sudden change in her son that she smiled and laughed softly as he began to babble on and demand information about his twin. She hadn't realized until then that he had believed she was gone forever. Smiling down at him once more she shook her head and spoke up. "She's the same stubborn, independent, outgoing, carefree spirit she's always been... and she misses you. She's a bit shorter than you, blue green eyes, wears her hair short almost like yours.. Still likes to make trouble when you're not paying attention too.. You really miss all that?" She teased her son as she wrinkled her nose, thinking how quiet life must have been for Kansas without his twin.
She flopped over on the beach as she gazed off across the sea, thinking about her other three children that were so far across the lands. "She's with your sister and brother. They wanted to see what was over the ocean just to say they knew what was out there.. They'll be back though, they promised. She can't wait to see you again though. I know that one for sure." She smiled at Kansas and hoped that for all their sakes it wasn't too late when the three sailors came home from the sea. She wished she'd gone herself, but she wouldn't have done that to her other babes.
