Thank you for all the reviews. Sorry it has taken some time to update, I have had major writers block with all my stories. I hope you enjoy.
I woke up earlier than usual, I didn't get out of bed I laid there thinking about how quickly the last five years had went by, Kenzie was going to kindergarten today and I was a wreck over it. Last night she and I had picked out the outfit that she was going to wear today after changing her mind three or four times, she was so excited it took Will over an hour to get her to asleep.
"Cher you are awake." As he pulled me closer to him.
"Yeah, I can't sleep."
"Everything is going to be okay, I am here for you."
"I am not ready for today, I wouldn't trade Henry or us."
"But."
"I wish she was still a baby."
"I know you do Cher."
"But she can't be."
"No she can't but you are going to be okay."
"I heard you two talking last night."
"Oh yeah."
"Yes and you answered her questions."
"You know the last name thing is going to come up again."
"Yes but your answer last night was great."
Flashback
I stood at her bedroom door listening to them talk.
"Daddy are you and mommy going to get married?"
"We may someday why?"
"Just wondering."
"Kenz you can tell me anything."
"I want my last name like Henry's but I don't want mommy to be left out."
"You know that even though your last name is Jareau I love you and no matter what anyone says you are my daughter."
"Yes but most of my friend's mommy and daddy has the same last night."
"Every family is different and they should be. The most important thing about family is that no matter want they love each other. Mommy and I love you and Henry more than anything in the world and we love each other. Really that's all the matters."
"Henry and I love you and mommy too." Before she hugged him.

"We need to get up. Garcia will be here in a little bit." I told him.
"She is keeping Henry all day?"
"Yes she said she wanted to spend time with him."
"Okay, then I get you all to myself for a couple of hours."
"What do you have planned?"
"You will see."

Forty minutes later
I had Kenzie dressed and was trying to fix her hair but she wouldn't stay still.
"Kenzie you have to stand still for a couple of minutes."
"I excited."
"I know you are but I have to get you ready."
"Hurry please. I want to go to kindergarten."
"I know you do but Aunt Pen will be here soon to get Henry and I know she wants to take picture of you."
"Okay. I'll stand still." As I started braiding her hair.
"Jennifer, Garcia is here." Will called up the steps.
"Okay we will be down in a minute." I yelled back as I finished up.
"Let me see you." I told her.
She turned around with a huge smile on her face. She had a pair of gray leggings with a long pink shirt that had a belt around it, she looked adorable.
"You are absolutely beautiful."
"Thank you. I need my sandals."
"They are downstairs. Let's go show daddy and Aunt Pen."
"Okay." As she ran out of the room.

Downstairs.
Kenzie came running into the living room. I was still on the steps, when I heard her start talking.
"Do you like my outfit?" she asked.
"You look beautiful." Will told her smiling.
"A fashion model, she could be an absolute fashion model." Penelope smiling.
"Thank you. I need my sandals."
"They are on the table." I told her as I came in the room.
We all watched as she took off towards the dining room.
"How are you doing momma?" Penelope asked.
"I'm not discussing it." I told her.
"She is going to be fine and by the time you pick her up she will probably be running the school."
"If she is like her mother." Will laughing.
"I know it's more about me then her."
"Mommy, Daddy I am ready."
"You need your backpack and then you need to tell Aunt Pen and Henry bye." I told her.
"Where's my backpack?"
"It's right next to you chair." Will told her.
We watched as she went back towards the dining room.
"Thank you for keeping him." As I turned to look back at Garcia.
"It is no problem, we are going to have a good time."
I made sure that she had everything for Henry before Kenzie told them bye. We all headed out the door at the same time.

Will and I drove Kenzie to school, she talked the whole fifteen minute drive about how much fun she was going to have, what she was going to learn, and the friends she was going to make. She stopped when we pulled to the school.
"Kenz you are going to have a good day but remember that you have to listen to the teacher." I told her.
"I will mommy. Can we go in?"
"Yes, Daddy and I are going in with you." As I opened the car door.
Will got out and walked around the car he opened Kenzie's door and helped her out of her seat before getting her out the car. She held both of our hands as we walked into the school, Kenzie looked around at the different rooms as we reached her room.
"You ready to meet your teacher, princess."
"Yes." She whispered, she was getting nervous.
"Hey you are going to be just fine." I told her as I kneeled down to her.
She shook her head as I stood up. We slowing walked into the room, there was a brunette women standing there greeting each child and their parents. We waited in the line for a couple of minutes before we were talking to the teacher.
"Hello I'm Ms. Walker."
"Hello, I'm Jennifer Jareau." As she shook my hand.
"Hello, Will LaMontagne." As Will shook her hand.
"You must Kenzie then."
"Yes." As she moved closer to Will.
"I am your teacher and it's very nice to meet you."
"It's nice to meet you." Kenzie whispered in reply.
"Would you like for me to show you to your seat?"
"No thank you. Daddy, I want to go home."
Will and I both looked at each other, she had been so excited neither of us were prepared for this. Will kneeled down to her level.
"Princess you have excited for days."
"I changed my mind."
"Are you sure because it looks like you could have a lot of fun and I think that is Alice from daycare over there?"
I watched as she looked at the little girl, before turning back to Will.
"This room is big."
"It is. Why don't you and I make a deal?"
"What deal?"
"You try out school today and if you don't make at least one new friend or learn anything then tomorrow you don't have to come back."
"Are you going to come get me?"
"Yes, mommy and I will be here to pick you up. Do we have a deal?"
"Yes." Will stood up as Kenzie turned to look at Ms. Walker.
"I am ready to go to my seat." She told her.
"Okay, Ms. Jareau I need to give you these." As she handed me some papers.
"Thank you."
Kenzie hugged both me and Will before she went to her sit, I watched her closely as we walked out the classroom door.

Will and I went back home, our house was quiet for the first time in a long time. He was making me breakfast as I sat at the counter.
"That was a dangerous deal you made."
"Yes but I am betting that she makes a new friend and learns something."
"I hope so because I don't know if I can do that again tomorrow."
"Honestly, me either. I was ready to let her come home today."
"What are we going do?"
"I am not sure but our daughter definitely knows how to get what she wants."
"That she does." As he sat a plate of food down in front of me.
"What would you like to do today?" He asked as he sat down next to me.
"Just spend the day with you. We can stay in the house all day."
"That sounds like a plan. I have something for you."
"What's that?"
I watched as he pulled out the small box.
"Will"
"Relax, when I ask you to marry me it will not be sitting at the kitchen counter."
"What is this?"
"Open it and find out."
I opened the box to find a gold ring in the middle were two stones, one was Kenzie's birth stone and the other was Henry's.
"This is beautiful."
"It's a mother's ring and I got me on with the kids birthstone too." As he put mine on my finger.
"I love you."
"I love you too." As he leaned over to kiss me.
"I say we go upstairs." I told him as I pulled away.
"What are you waiting for?"
I stood up going towards the stairs, he picked before I made it to them carry me up to our bedroom.
Please let me know what you think and any story ideas.
