Jenny looked over at her husband as he paced around their bedroom. Their week-old daughter rested in his arms. Jen was afraid to ask if Emma had finally drifted back to sleep, afraid that she wake her back up, and she would start crying again. Jethro looked over at Jenny and gave her a half-awake, half-asleep smile. She smiled back, and he continued to pace as he rocked his little girl in his arms. Ten minutes later, she watched him as he walked over to the bassinet and carefully laid Emma down. He stood over her to see if she would awake, and he gratefully sighed as the baby continued to sleep. He ruffled his hair as he made his way back over to the bed.
Jenny threw back the covers as he lay down. She covered them back up as he curled in behind her.
"She's stubborn like her parents." He quietly whispered, as he closed his eyes once more. Jenny snuggled up closer to him, and right as they were about to drift back into sleep, a baby's cried interrupted the silence.
Jenny grinned, before throwing back the covers "I'll get her."
A/N I have had this one written for awhile, but I kept thinking that I would add something to it; however, as I re-read it, I couldn't think of anything else to add. So, here it is. Happy Holidays to all!
