"Yes, splashy splash splash Jenny." Mac said as she bathed Jenny who was
wildly kicking her legs covering Mac in water. "Having fun aren't you?"
Jenny continued to kick her legs paying no attention to Mac. Mac smiled and lent over and kissed her forehead.
Ten minutes later Jenny was changed into a sleep suit and Mac was sat in a rocking chair reading her a story. Although Jenny was too young to really understand what Mac was reading to her Mac did it anyway as she found it relaxing.
That was where Harm found them when he returned home an hour later. Mac had an open book in her lap and was asleep. Jenny was awake but wasn't making a sound.
"Hey sweetheart." He gently took her out of Mac's arms trying not to wake her. "You should be asleep missy." He carefully carried out her downstairs. "Let's what some TV huh?" He said switching on the TV; he flicked channels until he hit a kid's cartoon channel. "A little piece of advice from your Dad Jenny, you're never too young for Roadrunner cartoons. Beep Beep."
"That's Bugs Bunny and that's Yosemite Sam he doesn't like Bugs very much." Harm was explaining when Mac came downstairs. She smiled as she walked across and sat down next to Harm.
"You know what Jenny, I think you're Daddy made you his perfect excuse to watch cartoons without having to lose the macho image. Hi." She said leaning across and kissing him.
"Hey, I'm improving Jenny's education."
"She's three months old, I'm quite sure she's not going to get the nuances of Bugs Bunny cartoons quite yet."
"She seemed to like the Roadrunner ones. So are you feeling up to talking about your therapy session yet?" He asked.
"Did you call Dr Jordon?" She curled her legs up under her.
"Yes, she explained what was going on, but she said to let you talk about it in your own time. I'm here if you want to talk, but if you don't that's fine."
"I think I need a few days to work it over in my head. She should be in bed."
"I know, but we were bonding." He said kissing the top of Jenny's head.
"Which is always a good idea, but if she doesn't sleep now she'll be cranky all day tomorrow."
"I'll put her to bed. Say goodnight to Mommy Jenny."
"Goodnight sweetheart." Jenny cooed. "Sweet dreams."
"So do you feel like pizza and a movie?" Harm asked as he came back downstairs.
"Sounds good. You call the pizza place and I'll see what movies are on." Mac picked up the TV guide and began to flick through it.
"Pizza will be here in thirty minutes. So what are we watching?"
"We have a choice, Saving Private Ryan or Runaway Bride. They both start in five minutes. Any preference?" She asked.
"You pick. Do you want some juice?"
"Please." Mac flicked to the appropriate channel. When Harm came back Mac threw a cushion on his lap and laid her head down curling up on the couch. Harm stroked her hair.
"So what are we watching?"
"Saving Private Ryan, I'm not in the mood for Julia Roberts." She settled down as the movie started.
Jenny continued to kick her legs paying no attention to Mac. Mac smiled and lent over and kissed her forehead.
