Catori felt her heart hammering in her chest, nerves elevated not only because of her potential children, but, for the children they already had. Sunny was hers, just like Dawn was, and Easy and Dauntless and Lavender. They were hers because she cared for them all and they came from Grayday and they deserved it. They deserved the love and affection that had been denied to them by their own mothers. It was unfair but all that Catori could think was how could someone leave them behind? It was impossible. "You're sweet to offer, I hope I won't run you too ragged." Catori said with a little laugh. 

She felt better since talking to Sunny and some of her own fears about telling Grayday's older children about the babies was lifted. "Do you think everyone else will be excited?" She asked cautiously - truth be told she was more worried about Sunny would take it than anyone else. He'd been more reserved, more aloof when it came to her, and she was relieved beyond measure when he didn't reject her or the children. She didn't leave her spot tucked against him, glad for the moment of bonding with him. "You're going to be a wonderful brother, Sunny." She said with a smile - and this time he'd get to actually be there with his little siblings.
