"Hey, do you know about the U.S.A.? Do you know about the government? Can you tell me 'bout the Constitution? Hey, learn about the U.S.A.

In 1787, I'm told, Our founding fathers did agree, To write a list of principles For keepin' people free. The U.S.A. was just starting out, A bold, brand new country. And so our people spelled it out: The things that we should be.

We the people, In order to form a more perfect union, Establish justice, Ensure domestic tranquility, Provide for the common defense, Promote the general welfare and Secure the blessings of liberty To ourselves and our posterity, Do ordain and establish this Constitution, For the United States of America.

In 1787, I'm told, Our founding fathers did agree, To write a list of principles For keepin' people free. The U.S.A. was just starting out ..."

Jen stopped singing when she saw Harm stood in the doorway.

"Sorry sir." Abi cooed and kicked her legs.

"It's okay. She seems to be having fun. Was she okay at day care today?"

"She was a little upset when the Colonel dropped her off this morning but other than that she was a perfect angel."

"Isn't she always?" Harm said taking Abi from her. Jen bit her lip, to keep from giggling. "What?"

"Permission to speak freely sir."

"Go ahead."

"Sir, Colonel Mackenzie says when anyone says she's an angel, if she didn't know for certain you were her father, she may just question her parentage."

"Hey!"

"You did give me permission sir."

"True. So are you ready to go?"

"Yes sir." Jen picked up the diaper bag. Harm had Abi in one arm, his briefcase in the other hand and he was trying to figure out how to get his cover out from under his arm. "Let me help sir." Jen took the cover out and put it on his head, then adjust it so it was straight.

"Thanks Jen."

"You're welcome sir."

"Headed home Commander? The Admiral asked as he waited for the elevator.

"Yes sir." AJ looked at Abi who was drooling on Harm's shoulder.

"She's gotten bigger since I last saw her."

"Yes sir."

"Mac working late?" He questioned.

"She left earlier sir, family emergency."

"She cleared it with Admiral Morris sir." Jen added.

"Nothing bad I hope?" AJ asked.

"Lightning struck my grandmother's house; it's going take them a while to fix the problems it caused so Mac is bringing her to stay with us."

"If you'd need to take the afternoon off Commander you could have asked." AJ pointed out.

"I was in court all afternoon sir. The first I knew of it was when Jen came to ask me if I could leave in time to get Abi from day care."

"Colonel Mackenzie asked me to make sure she was collected sir."

"Now I'm going to give Jen a ride home."

"Having car trouble Petty Officer?" AJ asked.

"No sir. Colonel Mackenzie borrowed my car since she needed to leave me the SUV to pick Abi up in."

"Correct me if I'm wrong Commander but didn't you bring two cars this morning as always?"

"Yes sir, but my grandmother is probably too old to spend three hours in a corvette."

"Good point." He said as the elevator arrived. They all stepped into the elevator. "Petty Officer, if you see Petty Officer Tiner over the weekend please advise him that I may be late on Monday morning."

"Aye aye sir." Abi cooed at her godmother and held out her hand. Jen reached up and Abi grabbed her finger. "You're adorable aren't you sweetheart?" AJ glanced at Harm and they both smiled.
