Jeremy met Erin in the cafeteria at work one day. She was a disciplined woman who had worked hard to move up the military ladder. Erin admired Jeremy's zest for life and even though they hadn't known each other very long she could do much worst. When Jeremy proposed she said yes.
Jeremy was suprised but pleased to discover that Erin was pregnant but she also told him she was just days away from old age! He didn't know how to explain to her about his legacy dream, he wanted many children and Erin was too old to produce more than one child. He felt he had made a huge mistake jumping into marriage so quickly.
Erin worked out continually to stay in shape, she also enjoyed learning cooking skills so that the family could use up all of the vegetables that Jeremy was growing.
A disciplined but grumpy baby, he seemed hard to please but both parents tried their best. Erin would even sing to him to make the crying stop! Jeremy tried to bring up the subject of Erin's forthcoming birthday but Erin refused to discuss it.
Jeremy had their closest friends come over to celebrate the day even though Erin wasn't thrilled about it. They watched Erin become an Elder in frumpy clothes that she vowed to change out of as soon as possible. She wasn't pleased with this aging business and wished everyone would go away.
Jeremy told Erin about his past and his hopes for the future. She reminded him that her baby making days were over now. Couldn't he be happy enough with his one child? He had no answer for her so she told him for his long term happiness she would set him free.
She asked if she could stay until Stewie was a little bit older. Jeremy agreed to this and wend back to his gardening wondering what would happen to his family dreams now.
