Help[Games] 10 Years With the Josephson / Antoniou Family In Modern Greece
in reply to a message by greenbeans
Year 0
Colin and Eirini met 6 years ago when Colin visited Greece for a few months. They started dating, and when Colin went back to Saint Lucia they kept up a long distance relationship for a year, before Colin came to live in Greece to be close to Eirini. Now they are newly married and thinking about starting a family. They're both excited to spend the rest of their lives together.

Year 4
Colin and Eirini have a huge argument this year over child care. Colin thinks Eirini isn't doing enough to help out with the three-year-olds, while Eirini believes that she is working a lot and Colin has more free time than her. The argument is so serious that it threatens divorce, but in the end the couple manage to work it out and compromise with a child care schedule that they will both follow. They both feel that this rough patch has made their marriage stronger.

Year 5
Eirini is pregnant again, and this time she carries to term. The family welcomes a third little girl and they name her Olympia. Athina loves being a big sister right away, while Iris is wary at first - but after she gets used to the baby, she loves her. Meanwhile, during her pregnancy, Eirini wrote a children's book; she now decides she enjoys this creative outlet, and has begun to write regularly alongside her engineering job.

Year 6
This year, Colin and Eirini become pregnant yet again - and are shocked to discover at the ultrasound that they are having another set of twins: fraternal boys this time. They name them Ilias and Giorgos. Now with five children aged five and under, the couple are exhausted; this leads to a minor argument over how they are spending less time together. It is quickly resolved, however, as they decide to hire a babysitter every few weeks and go out for a night together.

Year 7
This year, the family are invited to Saint Lucia to spend the summer with Colin's family. Eirini has only met members of her husband's family individually when they've visited Greece in the past, so she is eager to travel to Saint Lucia, where she has never been before. Colin delights in showing his home country to his wife, and also his children, who have never visited the country despite it being half of their heritage. Everyone enjoys the trip, especially Iris and Athina who get along with their cousins like a house on fire.

Year 8
After writing various children's books, short and long, for three years, Eirini finally finds a publisher who is interested in her stories and gets her first book published. She is proud to have achieved this long-term goal at last, and the family go out for dinner to celebrate. The children are insistent that their mother is now a famous author, which Eirini finds flattering and amusing.

Year 9
The family welcome their sixth child, another baby boy, and name him Spiridon. Ilias is excited to have a little brother, but Giorgos misses being the baby of the family; Olympia is pleased that she is no longer the only one without a twin; Iris and Athina think the baby is cute, but they "already have lots of those" and are unexcited. Colin and Eirini, however, find that the excitement does not wear off with each new child.
