"Sometimes the most beautiful flower grows in adversity." She told her softly.

Egypt giggled. "Yes ma'am. I have 5 children actually. 2 girls, Paris and Willow and 3 boys right now, Lucas, Dillon and JoJo. And my younger boys are the twins." She gushed. If there was anything she loved more than her husband it was her children. They were her lights, her life. She loved coming home to them and the whole family spending time together. She saw the longing in Reagan's eyes, but she refrained form saying something. That was a conversation that you had with your best friend or your mother. Not a coworker.

Egypt nodded along with Reagan as she spoke. "Oh yes I do agree with you. These recent events may plant the seeds in people's heads that we are in a weakened state and that we are an easy target. I do not want to project that image." She didn't want anything else to happen under her watch. Let alone another murder. She was already getting the owls from her mother about the incident. A pained expression crossed her face. She didn't want to read about their blunder in the paper, but it was unavoidable. Clare's overly dramatic personality wouldn't let her keep something this juicy from being splashed across the front page. No doubt with a heart wrenching reenactment of the drama. "Oh yes I can head up there right now and reinforce the charms and even add a few new ones." She explained.
"Oooh, May? That's one of my favorite months. Not too hot, not too cold. That'll be a nice time to deliver." As Reagan listened to Egypt talk about her kids, her smile dropped into open-mouthed surprise. "You have five children and these two will make seven? Oh my word! How do you find the energy to even come to work in the morning? I'm thoroughly impressed!" Reagan wanted a family of her own, but she could never handle one that big! Reagan always pictured herself with a small family - a husband, maybe two kids. But she was impressed by Egypt's ability to handle it all and envious of the happiness she clearly was filled with.

Returning the conversation to the more serious and immediate of topics, "You have time right now to come up? That would be perfect. The sooner we ensure the safety of the Minister, the better I'll feel." Reagan stood from her seat on the small couch and waited for Egypt to do the same and lead the way out of her office to the lifts.
