'When nothing you do can change my mind'
"Hey Mom, would you still love me if I cut off some of Sparky's hair?" Sarah Mackenzie-Rabb looked down at her four year old son Matt, who looked a little less than innocent. She sighed and blew a piece of hair out of her face and shifted her six month old daughter, Melanie, on her hip.
"Of course I would still love you Matt." At his relieved smile, she just shook her head. "How much did you cut off?" As if on cue, the Rabb family pet, Sparky, came running through the hall, a rather large patch of fur missing from his back. Mac sighed again and looked down at her son. "Just don't do it again okay sweetie? I think that Sparky likes his hair."
Matt nodded and quickly hugged her legs and ran off after the dog, attempting to regain its trust. Mac laughed and turned back to her task of deciding what to do for dinner and how to keep her daughter entertained. She smiled as she heard the front door open and the familiar chorus of "Daddy!" from Matt.
She glanced up in time to see the father and son engaging in their daily game of airplane. As soon as Matt was safely on the ground and in search of the family pet once more, Harm found his way into the kitchen.
The baby girl in Mac's arms lit up when she heard her father's voice and Mac gladly handed her over to him "Hi sweetie." She said happily, greeting him with a quick peck on the cheek.
"Hey Mac." He replied, turning his head to give her a kiss on the lips. She grinned, loving the fact that they were still like this after five years of marriage. He played with Melanie for a few seconds before turning back to his wife. "So uh….what happened to Sparky? I saw him when I walked in and…" They both laughed, looking to the family room where their dog was undoubtedly hiding behind the couch.
"We apparently need to put the scissors up higher. Matt must have found some lying around and decided that it'd be fun to give poor Sparky a hair cut." She grinned, knowing that this was exactly the kind of thing her husband would have done when he was younger. "He comes in and asks me if I'd still love him if he cut off some of Sparky's hair."
Harm smiled and shook his head. "And what did you tell him?"
She rolled her eyes, and opened up the refrigerator door, still on a quest for dinner. "Of course I said that I'd still love him." She smirked as she shut the door behind her, still not finding anything. "After all, I still love you, and you've done much worse than cut off some hair."
Harm chuckled, and gently put Melanie into her high chair. Mac smiled at how gentle he was with their baby girl, she always knew that he'd be a wonderful father. She was caught off guard when she felt his arms wrap around her tightly. "I guess it's a good thing that you're such a forgiving woman, huh Mac?"
She giggled and leaned into his arms. "Yeah, you're extremely lucky Harmon Rabb."
"So would you still love me if I decided that I wanted to fly again?" Mac whipped around in his arms and glared at him.
"You can't be serious…" She muttered darkly. Harm laughed and shook his head. "You better be kidding Harmon, or I swear to God, I will hurt you SO BAD…"
Harm just grinned and lightly kissed her forehead. "Of course I'm joking Mac." She relaxed a little bit and playfully punched his arm. "I have everything that I could ever want right here."
