"All the best Princesses are blond and blue eyed like you Mummy," Sara declared as she placed her Disney's 100 Cinderella Tales on her lap.
Suri nodded emphatically as she followed suit with her copy of Disney's 100 Sleeping Beauty Adventures. She completely agreed with her twin. "Aurora has the best adventures!"
Serena looked up from her text book, secretly relieved to be able to divert her attention to something else. A gentle smile played on her lips as she studied her two four year old future daughters.
"I don't know about that, I think raven-haired Princesses are just as great," she said reaching across the table tucking a strand of jet black hair behind Suri's ear and brushing Sara's ebony bangs from her face.
"Both Aurora and Cinderella are blondes and blue eyed, just like you," Sara said gesturing to her book and the one on her sister's lap.
"Snow White's hair is midnight black not unlike yours are and she has the seven dwarves taking care of her."
"Aurora has her own guardian fairies and you have your own guardian Scouts," Suri pointed out.
Serena grinned at this and replied easily, "Ah, but Jasmine has her own pet tiger much as you have Luna-P. Both are pretty cool, don't you think?"
"What are we talking about, girls?" Darien asked as he came in with the boys. The sight of Serena sitting cross-legged on the floor in her favourite studying position with an open textbook on the table in front of her and Sara and Suri on the sofa across from the blonde beauty had him smiling with a contentment that is fast becoming familiar and yet still managed to take him off guard a lot of the time.
"Daddy, who's your favourite Princess?" Sara asked.
"The girls seemed to think that blond Princesses are the best, Cinderella, Aurora..." Serena explained.
"Just like Mummy," Suri chimed in.
"...but I think raven-haired Princesses are pretty great too, Snow White and Jasmine..." Serena trailed off as she discreetly tilted her head to the little girls in silent communication to Darien.
Darien's lips curved and his eyes sparkled as he nodded his understanding.
"I think Mulan is okay," Darren said.
Darryl nodded in agreement as he finished his brother's thoughts, "She's a fighter and she's smart."
Suri tugged Darien's hand. "Daddy, which is your favourite Princess?" she asked.
Bending down, Darien tapped Suri's nose with a finger and bumped his nose to hers in an Eskimo kiss, "You are, Princess," he answered easily and turned to do the same to Sara, adding, "And you of course."
The little girls smiled in contentment.
Serena's heart fluttered in her chest.
"What about Mom?" Darren asked as he moved to sit next to her.
"Mom's my favourite Princess," Darryl answered as he gave Serena the same Eskimo kiss Darien gave his sisters.
Darren grinned. "Mine too," he added and proceeded to mirror his twin's action.
Darien made his way to her and brushed back a stray hair from her face, "Mine three," he said, his mouth a whisper away from hers, a soft teasing smile on his face, a tender look in his eyes.
