Tony wakes up to the most recognizable aroma on the planet, and it happens to be his favorite. The smell of bacon cooking is by far the one scent that is guaranteed to make his mouth water immediately.

Upon sitting up he realizes he's in bed alone, and he knows instantly that his wife chose to let him sleep in a bit. He's been struggling to get good sleep since he returned from visiting his dad. But, he has to admit this morning he feels great by comparison.

And for the first time since he's been home, he's feeling like he actually rested. Which makes him believe he is starting to find some balance, allowing him to get a good night's sleep.

Knowing he needs to get moving, with the day they have planned. He does some morning stretching and then begins his day. After grabbing some pajamas from his dresser drawer, he heads to the ensuite bathroom. And aifter using the facilities, and performing basic hygiene behaviors. He prepares to investigate what's going on in the kitchen.

Once he steps out into the hall he follows the smell of bacon, and when he rounds the corner entering into the kitchen, he sees his wife serving up a plate of pancakes, bacon, eggs, sausage and orange juice.

He stands in the doorway for a moment watching her, as she puts together a breakfast tray for him. He gets caught up in the admiring because Josie busts him out, running over to him.
Kerry sees Josie dash off and she turns around to see her husband standing in the door way with a grin. She smiles as he picks up Josie, giving her some love as he walks toward her.

When he reaches her he puts Josie down and he takes her into his arms, laying the biggest and sexiest morning kiss on her she's gotten in a while. It's the kind of kiss that makes her want to push everything off the countertop, and let him take her right here, right now?

But, she knows that's not possible. Yet as the kiss breaks she licks her lips as she says, "Well damn, good morning to you." He smiles at her in response, and grips her ass with one hand, seeing the desire in her eyes as he replies, "Good morning baby."

She bites her bottom lip as she peers up at him, thrusting her hips forward as she says, "Somebody is trying to go back to bed, huh?" They share a grin as her arms are still draped around his neck, and he now has both hands on her ass, as he says, "I'll follow you anywhere, you know that." His voice is so sweet and sexy, she can't believe he still makes her swoon after all of these years. But he does.

Seeing the joy in her eyes brings him great peace. Knowing their life together is at the center of her happiness means the world to him. And, seeing the most mundane tasks like standing in their kitchen, making him breakfast as a part of her happiness, touches his heart. Making him oh so appreciative of the little things they do for one another that make each other feel loved and supportive.

She peers up at him and sees he's in thought as he looks at her and she asks, "What's on your mind love?" He sighs as he replies, "You." She grins as she says, "After last night, I'm sure I am all in your head." They both chuckle as they recount their moments last night that involved their Jacuzzi, the steam room, the swimming pool, and their shower, before their bed became their final resting place.

Agreeing last night was a night to rival all other sexual escapes they've shared in the past. But wanting to be sure she knows his thoughts of her are so much more than orgasmic. He caresses her face as their laughter settles and says, "I'm the luckiest man in the world to have you as my other half, and I never stop being thankful for all you do for me and our family. I love you Ker."

Despite the fact he's never shied away from expressing his feelings to her before; she never tires of hearing how sweet, loving, and romantic he is in the most random moments. This, is love. She thinks to herself.

His words touch her heart immediately. She knows with his dad's health situation being what it is. Lately, he's been more sensitive and attentive to both her and Isa. So, she shouldn't be caught off guard by him, but she can feel the flood gates opening nonetheless. He sees the development of tears in her eyes as she says, "Thank you babe. I love you too. And you know I wouldn't want to do this thing called life with anybody else, but you."

Sweetly, he pulls her close as the tears roll down her cheeks, and they hold each other lovingly. Their embrace is one of comfort and security. Loving her reaction, he smiles inside as he kisses the top of her head as he strokes her back and asks, "Are you okay?" She nods as she breathes deeply, holding him tight, with her head tucked into his chest, as she responds, "Yes. Being in your arms always makes me more than okay."

Their embrace lasts for several minutes and ends mutually, with a sweet kiss. And as they share a sweet smile between them, they're interrupted by cooing from the baby monitor. Their kiss breaks and they both look over at the monitor to see their little one sitting up in her crib, looking out through the bars. They smile at the image, and he says, "She's growing so fast babe." She agrees, she's growing like a weed, and she wants to hit pause to savor the moment a little longer, but she can't.

With wishful thinking she replies, "I know. Make it stop." He hugs her and kisses the top of her head, as he responds, "I wish I could babe." They both stare at her a little longer before he says, "I'll go get her. Have you set up her high chair yet?" She nods as she says, "Yes, But the question is will she sit in it?" He sighs as he thinks about their latest battle with her. She prefers to sit in one of their laps while she eats verses sitting in the high chair. Something they both agree they need to break her from, but are struggling to do.

Quickly, she breaks him from his thoughts when she says, "We've got to put together a plan here T. I don't want to stunt her development." He sees the worry in her eyes as he replies, "Ker, it's not that bad. She just prefers being held while eating. She'll be fine." She hears him but says, "I don't think it's the end of the world by any means. But we agreed to try to get her to sit in the chair. Are you now calling that off?"

Admittedly, he knows how important consistency is with raising kids, and she has a point. If they agreed to do this, they have to follow through with it. Not because it's a huge deal per se, but for the sake of putting together a plan and executing it where their daughter is concerned.

Conceding to her point he says, "Okay. We're going to do this. And we're going to be consistent with it. Every time we eat, we're going to put her in it. So she doesn't get confused, and we're going to hold each other to it, deal." She takes a breath as she replies, "Deal." He counters as he says, "Even if she cries Ker. We have to let her work through it."

She knows he's right, but also knows her crying can be a deal breaker. Nonetheless, she says, "I know. We can do this. Together, we can do this." He nods as he says, "Yes we can. I'm going to grab her."

She nods as she says, "Okay, I'll get ready." He then replies, "Good deal. Be back." She turns around and thinks he's walked away. But then she feels as swat on her behind, which makes her giggle. She looks at him as he smiles in return, and she playfully says, "MMMM somebody is vying for a do over I see." Knowing she's referencing how their sexcapade from last night got started, he grins as he replies, "Hell yeah." They both laugh as she says, "Man go get our baby and get back here so we can eat and get our day started."

He walks out the doorway to get their little one, as he says, "Tease." She laughs at his remark and hurriedly gets Isa's plate ready, knowing she's got to be hungry.

When he returns he has his phone in one hand and Isa on his other hip. She's grinning like a shiny new penny, and looks absolutely adorable in the new mini mouse pajamas her mom bought her. But what makes Kerry's heart smile is how she's looking up at her daddy.

She is truly a daddy's girl, and she can't blame her. Because she understands, there's something about the love between a father and daughter that is simply unmatched. She's blessed to experience it with her own father, and she's ecstatic their baby girl will have the same type of experience.
