7. Handprint

"Look at that!" Leo exclaims the moment Reyna comes from the hallway in their apartment leading to their 3 year old son's bedroom. He gestured excitedly to the fridge where a painting had been quickly taped. "Look at it! He's going to be an artist when he's older!"

Reyna smiled a weary smile as she took in her ecstatic husband. She slowly walked to where he was to stand in front of him, leaning back with a smile as he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her against his chest. "It's very artistic," she said considerately.

Leo looked back at the small green handprint that took up the center of a piece of paper. "He'll be the modern Picasso," he predicted. "Or Van Gogh- only with both ears."

Reyna smiled wider. "We'll frame this and put it on display in his art gallery," she played along. "It will be worth millions- Miko Valdez's first work of art."

"But we won't let anybody buy it," Leo said. "It's ours."

Reyna nodded. "Oh yes. It will forever have a place on our fridge."

Leo nuzzled our neck. "He'll be so amazing," he murmured into her skin. "He could be anything he wants to."

Reyna turned to look at him, meeting his eyes with nothing but love showing in hers. "He already is amazing."

Leo met her eyes and smiled broadly. "I know. Thanks to his momma."

Reyna rolled her eyes but put her arms around his neck. "He's half you, you know," she reminded him.

Leo laughed. "Remember that when he starts picking up all the girls. That'll be my side."

Reyna raised an eyebrow. "What, like you?" She asked teasingly.

Leo pouted. "I got you didn't I?" He said softly. "The prettiest, most stubborn and sought after Roman out of hundreds."

Reyna grinned. "What, I can't be the one who got you?"

"You already make the most money," Leo pointed out, referring to her job as a lawyer in contrast to his as a mechanic. "Let me have this piece of manly pride."

"Oh you can keep that," Reyna agreed. "I'm just taking half credit for our amazing son."

"He is, isn't he?" Leo agreed once more, excited all over again. "I mean have you seen that handprint? It's absolutely beautiful."

Reyna just shook her head. Despite herself, she loved both of her silly boys.

She wouldn't give either of them up for the world.
