Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@JameisonReeder_Official Hardyharhar. So funny. Gav, Sveta, Aleks, Cat, Tanyusha, and now Pete. Did I mention we are calling her that?

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@JameisonReeder_Official I’m expecting you to give all of my kids Christmas, and Birthday presents this year.

Jameison Reedy @JameisonReeder_Official
@AMashkov_offcl @KentParsonOfficial First of all. Gav is not a kid. He just turned 23. I know this because you invited us all to his birthday party.

Jameison Reedy @JameisonReeder_Official
@AMashkov_offcl @KentParsonOfficial you realize he is an adult? Right?

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@JameisonReeder_Official Pretty sure he still lives at home. And the adoption papers say he is, in fact my child.

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@JameisonReeder_OfficialWhich is beside the point. =D

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@JameisonReeder_Official{http://imgur.com/uIg9m...} Isn’t Pete adorable?

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@JameisonReeder_Official Also. You sound as trollish as Wash.

Alexei Mashkov @AMashkov_offcl
@KentParsonOfficial Kenyushka...

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@AMashkov_offcl Alyosha!

Eric Bittle@omgcheckplease
@AMashkov_offcl @KentParsonOfficial OMG. Y’all are worse than Jack.

Eric Bittle@omgcheckplease
@AMashkov_offcl @KentParsonOfficial Everyone can see this.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
Congratulations! She is beautiful!

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
Thanks. =( The labor was kinda horrible. 25 hours. She was turned wrong, Zimms. Marta is probably going to be held a couple of days. There was some complications.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
Merde. Really? I’m sorry to hear that. I wish we could have been there for it. Well for all of you too.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
It’s fine. I know Bitty’s dad isn’t doing well. Um...how is that going?

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
Not well.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
Fuck, really?

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
It was a stroke. Not a major one, thank god. They are holding him in the hospital a couple days. Suzanne is beside herself. Yeah. So is Bittle.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
Fuck. Dude. Let me know if you need anything.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
You do the same. I can’t wait to meet her. The triplets excited?

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
So fucking much. So is Gav. He’s so good with all of him. Kept the kids corralled while we were at the hospital. Him and Snowy.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
That getting any better?

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
Honestly? No. Not even fucking close to it. Off again. On again. I worry about him. Both of them. It’s not affecting team play. Which honestly. Fuck it doesn’t even make me feel better.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
He’s your son. I mean. Yeah. I know. I don’t blame you. You love him and you worry about his well being.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial Fuck yes. I’m worried. I’ve heard trade rumours.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial I’ve heard. I said something to Georgia. She’s pretty close-lipped about it. What are you going to do?

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficialI don’t know. I’m not ready for him to leave. I wish things had been different. I wish we had found him when he was a child. I wish he hadn’t had to go through the shit he had. I don’t want him separated from his sisters. I’m sick about it.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial I’m sorry, Parse.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial Fuck, me too. When in the hell did I become the adult? Wow. I’m bad at this adulting thing, Zimms.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial No, Parse. Honestly...you are pretty damn good at it.

Robert L. Zimmermann @BobZimmermann_TZF
@KentParsonOfficial@AMashkov_offcl Congratulations, boys. She is beautiful. When are you bringing her over to see us?

Alicia A. Zimmermann @AliciaZimmermann_TZF
@KentParsonOfficial@AMashkov_offcl Oh, what a sweetheart. I can’t wait to meet her.

Alexei Mashkov @AMashkov_offcl
@AliciaZimmermann_TZF@BobZimmermann_TZF You know you always welcome. Girls miss Grand-mère and grand-père Zimmermann.

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@AliciaZimmermann_TZF@BobZimmermann_TZF Haha. What Alyosha said. Also. I miss you as well. Mom is down. You should probably call here.

Alicia A. Zimmermann @AliciaZimmermann_TZF
@KentParsonOfficial I will. Promise.

Kent Parson@KentParsonOfficial
@AliciaZimmermann_TZF Give me a call too. Vacation!

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
How is everyone else?

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
OMG. Zimms! You act like you haven’t seen us in months!

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
It’s been weeks.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
Yeah. I know. I just like to give you a hard time. Xi says hi, by the way. OMG. I’m sending you pictures. I got the best pictures of him and all of the girls and Gav, and yeah, I know I’ve become one of those parents.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
It’s fine. I get it. I’m glad you know.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
You should bring Laurent and Alice over once you get home. Kids have been begging to see them. Oh, God, and Nikita, and Spencer. I think last summer vacation ruined it all. I tried to explain to them that Nikitos and Spencer live in Pittsburgh.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
Eh. I be that was fun.

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
There were tears. A lot of fucking tears.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
:(

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
My exact reaction. As Xi would put it: ((((((((((((((((((((

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
I can actually imagine.Not to change the subject, but are we still training together?

[DM]Kent Parson @KentParsonOfficial
That is the plan. As soon as you get back, I guess. No hope for going to the cabin.

[DM]Jack Zimmermann @JackZimmermannOfficial
I’m sure we will just make do in Providence. It’s going to be okay, Parse. We’ve all got your back.
