Chapter Four
Walking
"Come on Katie! You can do it!" Kendall Knight said to his baby sister, Katie. Katie was just a year old and Kendall was trying to get her to take her first steps. Because the sooner Katie took her first steps, the sooner she could play big kid games with Kendall, like kick a soccer ball or have races with him, James, and Carlos across the front lawn.
"Katie, come here!" Kendall called out again. Katie was standing by the TV and Kendall was standing two feet away by the coffee table. Katie, thinking she was playing a game, made some gurgling noise then pushed her diapered bottom off the ground.
"That it Katie! Come on!" Kendall called out.
Katie smiled her two teeth smile. She placed a foot forward then fell back down onto her bottom.
"Katie." Kendall whined, stretching the 'e' out as his baby sister laughed.
"Kendall, she's only a baby." Mr. Knight laughed from his brown leather chair in front of the fireplace. "She can't even say daddy, mommy, or your name. Give her some time."
"But Daddy! Katie has to be big like me!"
"Here, let me help you make Katie a big girl."
Mr. Knight set down his newspaper and walked over to Katie. Mr. Knight stood her up and went next to the coffee table and sat next to Kendall.
"Come on Katie Kitten. Come to daddy." Mr. Knight said while clapping his hands. Instead of Katie taking a step, she clapped her hands like her father. Kendall groaned and Mr. Knight grinned at his daughter.
"Ok, how about this Kendall. You stand her and I will stand behind Katie. Maybe she is just distracted by me."
Kendall nodded his head and Mr. Knight went behind the giggling Katie.
"Katie…come here… come on now." Kendall said.
Katie took another step forward but instead fell back, hitting her head on the TV stand. Katie bursted out wailing and Mr. Knight scooped up his daughter into his arms. He rubbed his daughter's head, but Katie pushed away. Mr. Knight set her down and Katie pushed off the ground and stomped her little tennis shoes all the way over to Kendall, crying the entire time. She collapsed in front of his feet. Kendall sat down and hugged Katie, who stopped crying at realizing who was hugging her.
"Daddy…Mommy…Katie walked!" Kendall exclaimed.
Katie hiccupped one last time and crawled over to her blocks. She started banging them on the floor as Kendall continued to babble on about Katie's first steps to him.
"Do you know why she took her first steps to you Kendall?" Mr. Knight said to his son.
"No."
"Because she loves you the most." Mr. Knight said before tickling his oldest child in the stomach. Kendall laughed with glee over the tickling and the fact that Katie loved him the most.
Don't you just love sweet moments? Anyways, keep the one-shots coming.
