[Hopefully, you read enough of the story that you will easily be comfortable with a man "married" to three sisters and in relationship with another adult woman. This is fiction. I have no personal history of being "married" to four women. There is sex in this family and it isn't always vanilla. It is all loving. As always your votes and comments are encouraged.]

On Tuesday I found a note on my desk telling me that my wives wanted a meeting that evening at Della's. We would get the kids bedded down and then meet. I had dinner with Margie and then helped get kids bedded down.
At a little after nine Margie, Sandra, Della, Pat and I were in Della's living room. I was the only one that didn't know what the meeting was about. Della solved that.
"Jim's birthday is in just over three weeks. We know what the big gift is, his car. We need to talk about what else we want to do for his birthday."
At that moment Krystn walked into the room. I had seen her half an hour before in a nightgown. Now she was in shorts and a t-shirt. She looked unhappy.
"I know I wasn't invited to this family meeting. I know I have never been invited to a meeting of the adults in this family. I know you are my Moms and my Dad and you probably see me as the little girl I used to be. I'm not. I'm sixteen and I'm a good mom to the little guys, a good student, a good sister and I want you to treat me as a woman."
"Are you a woman?" I asked.
"Yes!" Her hands made fists and even though she didn't raise them I noticed. She was in a fight for her adulthood.
"So, Woman, have a seat. We were about to discuss Jim's birthday."
"I know. The only one in the family that doesn't know about the car is Jim. Every one of the little guys is so proud to be in on the secret they are bursting."
"Do you have any ideas for the celebration?"
"Yes, I do. I know Jim has friends all over town, at school and here at home. Our parties have always been inside the family parties. Because we aren't a normal family you tend not to socialize in the town, but Jim and I do. I want to have a pot-luck picnic at the park for his birthday. I will make fliers and put them all over town inviting people to come and celebrate Jim turning eighteen."
Della looked at Krystn like she was an alien. "You want to invite the whole town?"
"Yes, Mom. And, I think almost everyone will come. Jim is well liked all over. Having a picnic won't cost much because it's pot-luck. He can park his new car right there and show off all day long. It will give everyone a chance to be with him and us."
"Wow! I'm impressed. I never would have thought of going so big. I like the idea. Ladies, what do you think?"
No one could think of a single reason not to do it so it was decided we would have the picnic. Krystn jumped up and ran out of the room. She was back in seconds. She had already made the fliers on different colors of paper and they were ready to be passed out. She showed us the permit she got from City Hall so we could have a big celebration at the park.
By ten-thirty the meeting was over and I was in bed with Margie. I was thinking about Krystn demanding to be seen as a woman, having taken the initiative and prepared for her brother's birthday and how she had dressed to come to the meeting. Coming in a nightgown would have said that she was still a girl, not a woman.
"We've been waiting for Krystn to do that." Margie said.
"You read minds too?"
"What she did tonight was pretty impressive. I would have been surprised if you hadn't been thinking about her. We have waited for her to assert herself as a woman. It's something she had to do for herself. I am so proud of her! She did it by wanting to celebrate her brother."
"She loves him."
"Yes. And for her eighteenth birthday she wants to borrow the HB and Jim. She will give him her virginity and pledge her love to him forever."
"How do you Mom's feel about that?"
"We've had lots of time to get used to the idea. They have loved each other since they were toddlers. He has protected her and played with her and been there for her all her life. She followed him around like a puppy for years. None of his friends ever made fun of them. On the campout where we met you, she sucked him and he touched her pussy for the first time. They haven't gone all the way. Question is, how does their Dad feel about it?"
"I want them to wait. I'd actually like it if both of them explored the world a bit before they decide on a life mate. And, I can see that it will be tough to find someone else who can accept the way the family is as easily as they do."
"I love you, Nick. Thanks for not having a knee jerk reaction."
"I have a bum knee, remember? It doesn't jerk easily."
Like most mornings that I woke up with Margie her head was on my chest when I opened my eyes. We were awakened by two young girls bouncing on our bed.
"Momma, Daddy get up! You need to take us to school!"
We got up, dressed and I drove them to school. I noticed some fliers peeking out of their backpacks. On the way back from school I stopped at the hardware store. Taped to the front door was a blue flier inviting the town to Jim's birthday. Krystn must have left the house quite early.
Mike, the owner of the hardware store, told me he and his family would be at the picnic. He got me to promise I would taste some of his wife's potato salad.
At the supermarket the flier was on both doors. The manager and all three checkers told me they would be there and told me what a great kid Jim was. The manager told me the market was donating all the ice for drinks and ten cases of sodas for the picnic.
From the market I went home. I sent Margie out after lunch to get something for me from the drug store. She came back astounded by the response she encountered in town. I began thinking Krystn was right, the whole town would be there.
Krystn came home from school and found me. "Dad, I need your help."
"What do you need?"
"I've got six of my friends to help me decorate the park, but we don't have anything to decorate it with. We need balloons, streamers, plastic tablecloths, stuff."
"And you want money?"
"No! I have money. I need you to drive me to Atlanta to a big party store and let me get the stuff I need."
"Can we go tomorrow after school?"
"I get out early tomorrow. We could go at one. Is that Ok?"
"Yes. I'll pick you up in front of the school at one."
"Great! Can one of my friends come with us?"
"Sure. Give me her phone number, I want to check with her Mom that it's Ok."
She handed me a card with the name and number printed on it. "I knew you'd want it." She danced off, totally pleased with herself. I called and spoke to Sarah's mother. She had heard all about the picnic and Oked her daughter going to Atlanta with us. She was sending a note with Sarah to school so the school knew it was Ok.
As Sandra started towards the kitchen I said I wanted to take Krystn out for dinner. Sandra asked if I had asked Krystn. I hadn't. She told me to go ask and let her know so she knew how much dinner to make.
At the top of the stairs I said, "Krystn."
She came out of her room in a t-shirt and panties. "Dad?"
"I would like to go out for dinner tonight with just you and me. Would you go with me?"
