(: I posted the first chapter one night…..and when I checked me email in the morning before school…..OVER THIRTY FREAKING ALEARTS AND REVIEWS! :D I was practically jumping for joy!….then I remembered why the hell I had my cell-phone alarm go off at 4:15 am…..to prepare my self for when my mom gets me up at 5:30 am….goddamn school! DX Gahh! I HATE getting the bus at like 6:40 am. I HATE IT! D: Blahhhh well I can't wait to see what you guys think of this one! Please, please, please, please, please, PLEASE review at the end. I can't stress this enough, but you guys and your thoughts on my writing are a major part of my day and trying to complete the next chapter….it keeps me going. I'm sorry if it takes awhile to update, it's hard to find any free time when you're trying to balance your life between school work, friends, and life in general. Again, I am really sorry for the long wait! Please forgive me and tell me what you think of this chapter even if its kinda like really short! Sorry! Oh, and Happy really late Thanksgiving! :D hehe (:

Gibbs stood there with the boy - Anthony- on his hip.

"How-" she cut him off.

"Later Jethro."

"But-"

"I said, later." he replied sternly.

He looked at his wife, then Anthony, who was currently amazed by the shiny object around his father's neck.

"Okay." he finally replied. He pulled the dog tags out from under his shirt ad watched the little boy's eyes widen in awe.

Carefully, Gibbs moved himself around Shannon and sat at the table. He turned Anthony so that the kid was in his lap.

The two parents watched as their son's small hands investigated the pieces of metal at the end of the chain.

"He's a small little guy." Gibbs looked at his wife. "How old?"

"He'll be three in July."

"You can't be serious." he couldn't believe that the little boy, who was currently going over the small indented letters on the tags with his little fingers, was going to be three in a little more than two months.

She nodded.

"Doctor's say that he must be a slow one."

Gibbs just nodded and looked at Anthony, who looked like he was trying very hard to decipher the words on the tag.

"Do you call him Anthony? Or does he have a nickname?" he asked.

"We call him Tony, or AJ for Anthony Jethro or TJ for Tony Jethro."

He nodded.

Tony looked up at his father and pointed to the last name on the tag, then at Jethro, the himself.

Gibbs nodded, a little unsure of what his son had meant.

He watched a smile grow and light up the the small face.

The first thing he had said since Gibbs had net him, nearly brought tears of happiness to his eyes.

"Daddy." and he threw himself around his father's neck, embracing him into as stron a hug as an almost three year old could manage.
