A/N: this one stumped me, I hope you like it

"Daddy, can we go home now?

"Soon Christine."

"But I wanna go home now, it's cold…" Brennan put her hand on Christine's shoulder.

"Booth, let me take her home, she's been singing carols for the last hour."

"But I wanted us to do the whole thing together."

"I know, but she's only four… in a few years maybe Christine and Hank will be able to carol the neighborhood with you for 3 hours. For this year let me take her home, put her in her pajamas and make popcorn and hot chocolate and watch movies while Hank spends the night with dad."

"You're right Bones." Booth picked Christine up, "Mommy's going to take you home, Angel. You're going to watch moves and have hot chocolate and popcorn."

"Yea." Booth kissed Christine's cheek and handed her to Brennan. Two hours later Booth found Christine and Brennan wrapped in a blanket asleep on the couch.
