Another strain: Last December, a police officer stopped Fualaau in SeaTac, Wash., for speeding and reported smelling alcohol on his breath. This April a jury found him guilty; his lawyer is looking at options to keep him out of jail.
Despite the arrest, Fualaau's everyday life is, for the most part, ordinary. He and Letourneau devote most of their time to their kids, but every Saturday night is couples night. For their anniversary "Vili has a plan and he's keeping it secret," says Letourneau. Once in a while she envisions having another child. "One more would just be ideal," she says. "If we could have a boy, it would be Vili's dream."

Recently, Audrey and Alexis, returning from ballet class, dug into a box of costumes in their living room. "It's spirit day," explains Letourneau, referring to a tradition practiced by Fualaau's family, "and the girls get to dress up." Audrey, the tomboy, slips into a devil outfit; Alexis, the girly-girl, chooses angel's wings.
Later Alexis tries to sneak a stray cat past her mother. "Let him go," Letourneau says. "Steven's allergic to cats."
On a trip to the supermarket, the girls start fighting, prompting Letourneau to pull Audrey aside. "I reminded her that she is older than her sister, and that seemed like a chance to bring up what happened to me and Vili," says Letourneau. "I told her, 'Mommy and Daddy fell in love, but the rules were that we needed to wait until Daddy was older.' "
