The weather had been horrible the last few days adding onto their frustration. Working in the heat of summer didn't do well for either of them as she was born with a slightly shorter fuse than him. Hearing the splashing of the waves, he sat up a bit to watch the shoreline. Sure there were other people there but it didn't take long until his eyes honed in on his girls.

It's been a long month of all work and no play, which irritated both of them to no end. Not to mention that it meant that they were always too tired to play with little Jean. Shifting, he went from lying down to sitting on their enlarged beach towel. Shielding his eyes, he watched as mother and daughter played in the water. Jean was just like her with the same honey brown hair that was only mildly bushy thanks to his genes. Even Jean's smile curled the same way her mother's did. The way her heart-shaped face had a sprinkle of faint freckles across her cheekbones or how he could tell that she was just going to be as short as her... unless she had inherited his genes then she'll be taller.

He continued to watch as their hair began to soak in the water before being plastered to their face. Catching his wife's brown eyes, he could feel her happiness as she mouthed the words 'I love you' before their little four year old splashed her mother with her chubby little hands. He could hear Jean's light giggles mingle with her soft laughter while feeling his own lips curl in amusement.

She was beautiful out there playing with Jean, making little fish impressions that their little girl loves so much. His chuckles soon caught both of their attention and as Jean ran up to him on her little legs, he knew that she was going to be just as lovely as her mother.

"Dadee!"

Getting up, he caught Jean just as she tried to launch herself at him. Swirling her around like an airplane, he was granted with another round of fresh giggles while she stood and watched the scene. She loved how he was so attentive even as he always came home tired. He always had time to spare for them and even as she had taken to working part-time, she loved how he would tuck Jean into bed while she slept wherever she ended up. She shivered just slightly as he wrapped his arms around her and held her close. She was puzzled for a bit before finding Jean looking through the duffle bag.

As she looked up at them, Jean's green eyes sparkled as her parents smiled at her lovingly.
