"Four," Zach said. He'd misremembered earlier and gone by when they were adopted, not when they'd come to them. "So Ben was six. He was probably the only reason she wasn't anymore...panicked is probably the best word. Hell, she didn't calm down for us for weeks, and we kept everything as calm and routine as we could with a baby in the house. It's just a good thing it was summer, or having Ben gone all day would have made it harder on all of us, her especially." He sipped her water and shrugged a bit. "We loved her from the start, but with their background, it wasn't easy. With either of them. Ben's still solemn and much more adult than he should be, and he still acts like Jessica is solely his responsibility sometimes."
