It was a regular Friday night in the Morgan household. Sam had picked up Danny from preschool and spent the evening at her parents house for dinner. Back at the penthouse now, Danny was putting on his pyjamas, his favourite ones with the cars on them of course, and brushing his teeth upstairs while Sam was cleaning up the living room a little. Just then, Jason walked in in the door.
"Hey you", he said as he closed the door and put his coat down.
"Hey yourself", Sam said back as she walked over to embrace her husband. "I missed you."
"Hhmm I missed you too", Jason whispered into her ear as he wrapped his arms around her. "And how is this little one right here", he said, placing a gentle hand on her pregnant belly.
Yes, Jason and Sam, Mr. and Mrs. Morgan, were expecting their second child together. Sam was 36 weeks pregnant and her tiny frame made her growing belly look even larger in appearance.
"Ugh, she's doing great", Sam said as she wrap her fingers around her husbands hand. "She's up right now, kicking up a storm as we speak."
"Yeah, I can fell our little miss Emily in there. Hey you", he said with both hands rubbing her round stomach. "Be nice to your mother. I know it's tight in there but give mommy a break, k?"
Sam chuckled. Right then, the light pitter patter of Daniel Edward Morgan's little feet came rushing down the stairs.
"DADDY!", he screamed with joy.
"Hey hey buddy", he said as he picked up his big boy. "How was school today? Did you have lots of fun?", said Jason as he walked over with his son in his arms to sit on the couch.
"Yeah", Danny said.
Sam, with her hands supporting her aching back, began: "He actually brought home a book he wants you to read to him tonight, right buddy?"
Danny nodded and ran over to his backpack to grab the book. Sam made her way to the couch, grinning, and sat next to her husband who placed a delicate kiss on her forehead.
"It's called Their's a Baby in There!", Danny said as he ran back to the couch with his book in tow and made himself comfortable between his parents.
"Oh I wonder what that's about!", said Sam, placing her hand on her large stomach. She smiled at Jason who decided to play along with the game.
"Huh I don't know, we better read and find out!"
Jason took the book from his son's hand. Danny rested his head on his mother's chest as Sam wrapped her arm around him and began smoothing out his long blond hair.
Jason cleared his voice and began: "Their once was a boy who loved his parents, and they loved him back..."
