He looked at his wife's face, she looked gorgeous, holding their son close to her heart.

Their daughter, Tora, walked up to her mother and newborn brother.

"Mommy? Can I hold him? I promise I won't drop him!"

Ino smiled at their daughter and instructed her to sit down on the chair next to her, before having him hand the baby over to Tora.

"Hello wittle Inojou." Tora said with a smile. "I'm your big sister Tora, and I'm here to protect you always."

Itachi smiled fondly at the moment he and his family were sharing near the fire, he looked at his beautiful wife that was able to fill him with this much content in life and kissed her on the forehead.

She smiled back to him, he could tell she was exhausted from giving birth in the early morning but, he could also tell she wanted to stay right here with their family in this moment forever. He didn't blame her.

He was happy to witness the birth of his second child before being sent out on his next mission. It would be a hard one but this new edition to their small family would be all the more reason to return home safely. His family was his fire, one that would keep him going forever.
