EPOV

"Merry Christmas!" Mom said cheerfully as we walked in the door.

"Mey Twissmis, gwamma," Bailey said.

I couldn't help but smile at my daughter, she was getting so big and talks so much for her age.

Mom took Bailey from my arms and gave her a big kiss.

"Yo, Edward... ho ho ho," Emmett boomed coming in the room.

He had on a hideous green and red sweater with a huge Santa face on it and a Santa hat on his head.

I couldn't help but laugh - he's such an idiot.

"I have a hat for you too," he said as he reached into his bag and pulled it out and put it on my head.

"Gee thanks," I said.

"Da-da, look funny," Bailey said from my mom's arms.

"I bet I do," I laughed.

He walked over and put a little hat on Bailey's head and then he walked over to Bella and put one on her head as Grayson let out a scream.

"What's wrong, buddy? Don't like hats?" Emmett said to Grayson.

"I think it's actually your sweater that's scaring him, Em," Bella told him.

"Aww.. its just Unca Emmy," he said as he reached out for him and Grayson pulled closer to Bella.

"Seriously, Emmett, where did you get that thing."

"Online," he said as I walked over and took Grayson from her.

"Go change, please," Mom said to him.

"But, mom," he whined. "This is my Christmas sweater."

"Doesn't matter. Either you change or there are no presents for you. I won't have you terrorizing my grandbaby."

"But ma.."

"I'm serious, Emmett. Look at him, he's scared to death of that thing," she said as she looked at Grayson clutching onto me.

"Fine," he said as he stomped off to go and change.

"It's okay, sweet boy," Bella cooed beside me.

"Gwamma, is Gway-gway otay now?" Bailey asked.

"Yeah, he was just scared of Uncle Emmett's very ugly sweater."

She nodded as she sucked on her hand.

We walked into the living room where Mom had cinnamon rolls and coffee, tea and juice set up for everyone.

"Would you like me to get you something, love?" I asked.

"Yes please," she said softly.

I could tell she wasn't feeling great today, even though she didn't tell me. I knew.

"Have a seat and I'll bring it to you," I said kissing her forehead.

"Edward, I'm sorry I scared Grayson," Emmett said sounding remorseful.

"No worries, he'll be fine."

"Is Bella feeling okay, she didn't smack me over it?"

"She's okay, maybe tired."

"Wore her out last night, did ya?" he asked as he elbowed me.

"Don't be crass," I said as I picked the tray with our plates and tea on it.

"Hey, what's up with the tea Eddie?" he asked.

"Just switching it up, Emmy-bear," I said as I walked away from him.

"Here you go, baby," I told her as I set the tray in front of her.

"Thank you," she said as she picked up her tea and sipped it.

I sat down next to her as Emmett sat in the chair watching us.

"It's good to see the tension gone between you two," Rose said looking at me.

"Yeah, it feels good," I said.

"I'm sure other things feel good," Emmett said with a smirk. "Judging by how tired Bella looks today, I'm sure it felt real good."

"You're such a perv Emmett," Bella said.

"We'll Edward said you were tired today."

Jasper came walking into the living room with Carlie.

"Merry Christmas, everyone," he said with a forced smiled.

"Merry Christmas," we all said, looking at him with sympathy.

Pwsent time," Bailey said clapping her hands.

"Yep, present time," dad confirmed.

He started to hand out gifts as everyone opened them and the kids opened theirs as they oohed and awed about what was in the packages.

I helped Grayson open his and Bella smiled up at me as we opened our gifts for my parents, Emmett and Jasper.

After everyone was done, there was a mountain of paper and ribbons everywhere.

Everyone was happy with their gifts.

Bella and Rosalie went to get some trash bags as me and Emmett started to gather it up.

Once it was cleaned up, Mom directed us into the dining room for Christmas lunch.

"Are you feeling better, love?" I asked as I held her close to me.

"A bit," she said with a smile.

"I'll make your plate," I said as I helped her sit down.

"Thank you."

My mom was quick to notice her not feeling well and she went to make her some peppermint iced tea, that was her cure for all stomach ailments, even morning sickness.

"Edward, what's going on?" Jasper asked concerned. "Esme is making Bella tea, you're getting her plate. Is something wrong?"

I looked to Bella and she nodded, letting me know it was okay to tell everyone our news.

"Everything is fine...Bella is just carrying precious cargo."

"How far along are you?" Rosalie asked with a smile.

"About two and half months," Bella said quietly.

"Dude, your super sperm strike again," Emmett said as he slapped me on the back.

"Thanks man," I told him.

"Congrats," Jasper said softly as he smiled over at Bella.

I could tell he was sad today as his phone rang.

"Excuse me," he said as he stood up and left the dining room.

"Who do you think it is?" I asked.

"Probably Alice, I heard she's been calling him a lot," Emmett said quietly.

"Well hopefully she's getting better, but I want nothing to do with her. She's as good as dead to me," I said taking a sip of my tea.

"Edward, you can't mean that. She is your sister," my mom said.

"After what she has done, I no longer claim her as my sister."

"What has she done now?" she asked as I squeezed Bella's hand gently.

"We know she was behind the whole set up to make Bella look like she was cheating."

"Oh my," she said.

"So yeah, I'm done with her. Because of her I nearly threw Bella and my unborn child out of my life. I think I have a right to do that," I said as I looked up into Bella's eyes.

A tear fell from her eye as I reached out and wiped it away.

"I'm so sorry," mom said.

"It's fine now, we're fine," I said as I leaned in and kissed Bella's cheek.

"I hope that she's not giving him grief," mom said as we heard Jasper raising his voice from the other room.

"She seems to be doing a lot of that lately," Rosalie said.

We could all hear Jasper's raised voice and looked at each other awkwardly.

Why doesn't Emmett have anything stupid to say to now?

"Ma-ma, Ba-ee done."

"Okay, sweetheart," Bella said.

Jasper stomped back into the dining room as Bella was wiping up Bailey's face.

"Sorry about that," he murmured.

"Is everything okay?" Dad asked Jasper.

"Alice is pissed at me, not that that's new."

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I'm here with you and Bella and not there with her."

"You are here with Carlie and her grandparents not just me and Bella. She needs to grow up and realize that she's not the center of the universe."

"She didn't even ask about Carlie."

"That's really sad," Bella said as she smiled over at Carlie.

"Yeah," he said looking at his daughter sadly.

"What else did she say?" mom asked him

"Just more of the same stuff, how you are turning me against her, how Bella is ruining her life. How I am the most insensitive husband since I'd rather spend time with Carlie."

"That's insane - how is Bella doing anything to her?" I said, feeling angry.

"She feels that Bella flaunts how perfect your relationship is, and how she's the perfect mother and wife. Alice feels that Bella is a threat," he said. "Which is totally irrational."

"A threat to what?" Bella asked, tears threatening to spill down her face.

"I don't know, to her maybe. To our relationship, I don't think she's getting any better. I'm sorry, Bella," he said softly.

Bella nodded as she stood up, "Excuse me, I'll be right back."

I watched as hurried out of the room and Rosalie got up.

"I'll go check on her," she said softly.

"Thank you," I told her.

"I'm sorry, Edward. Maybe I should just go home," he said.

"No...no, it's not your fault."

"Jasper, you and Carlie are a part of this family, whether Alice is here or not," my father said.

He nodded as Bella and Rosalie came back into the room.

"I'm sorry," she said softly as she sat next to me.

"Are you okay, love?" I asked her as I leaned into her.

"Yeah...I'm fine."

"Bella, I'm sorry I upset you," Jasper said looking at her.

"I don't blame you, Jasper."

"Thanks. I think that Alice needs a lot of help and I hope that she gets it."

"We appreciate that you have stuck with Alice," Dad said.

"I love her, I can't help that."

"Is everyone ready for dessert?" my mom asked.

We all nodded, thankful for the distraction.

My mom and Rosalie walked over to the buffet table and began cutting the cake that Rosalie made.

I went and got Bella, Bailey and I a slice of cake.

"Here you are, love," I said as I sat the cake in front of her.

I put Bailey's small piece in front of her.

"Tanks da-da," she said with a smile, that made her look like a mini Bella.

She dug into the cake happily.

"Bella, I'd like to keep the kids tonight," my mom said as she looked up at us.

"Are you sure?" she asked.

"Yes, it's tradition. Jasper, we want to keep Carlie too."

"It's okay mom, I have nothing else to do tonight," Jasper said.

"You deserve some time to yourself. Carlie will be fine here with us and you can just relax," mom said.

"Thank you, mom."

"Then it's settle, we're keeping all the grand kids," she beamed at us. "This time next year we'll have five of them."

"It's gonna be fun, grandma," dad joked.

We finished dessert and we were just enjoying each others company when the doorbell rang.

Emmett went to answer it, as we all sat and waited to see who it was.

"Yo.. Seth nice shirt, dude," Emmett bellowed.

Emmett came back into the dining room with Seth following him in a ridiculous sweater.

"Merry Christmas," he said as he sat down next me.

"I just thought I'd drop by on my way out of town with my mom and sister, thank you by the way for our plane tickets."

"You're very welcome."

"I got you and Bella this," he said as he handed me an envelope.

I opened it and looked down at the gift cards in the envelope.

"The Toys r Us ones are for Bailey and Grayson," he said.

"Thank you so much, these are great."

I took out the next two gift cards and looked at them.

"Seth, this is too much," I said as I looked at him.

"Not at all, you and Bella saved my life and protected me. This is the best I can do to thank you," he said softly.

"It was my sisters idea about the couples massage. I know nothing about that," he said with a smirk. "I just figured that getting you a card to the coolest restaurant in Seattle and a two night stay at the Edgewater Hotel was perfect for the two of you."

"Thank you so much, this will be wonderful!"

He got up and gave everyone a hug.

"See ya after the new year," he said as he left.

"Thanks - see ya man."

"Sounds like you need us to watch the kids for two nights," mom said.

"Eventually, maybe for our anniversary," I said.

"Whenever - I'm more than happy to anytime."

"We know mom," Bella said as she squeezed my hand.

"Are you ready to go home, love?" I asked.

"Yeah I am."

I picked up Bailey, "You be a good girl for Grandma and Pop pop, okay?"

"Otay da-da."

"Ma-ma, I be good girl," she said as she reached for Bella.

"Thank you, baby girl."

She wiggled out of Bella's arms and went to sit with Carlie.

We gave Grayson a kiss as he was sleeping in the swing.

"We'll come by in the morning to get them," I said to them.

"Thank you so much, mom."

"No hurry to come and get them. Enjoy yourselves and Merry Christmas," she said with a huge smile on her face.

I took Bella by the hand and we grabbed our coats as we said goodbye to everyone.

I kept a hold of her hand the whole way home.

We were relatively silent on the way home.

I knew that she was still upset about my damn sister. I swear if she wasn't related to me, I'd have her taken out, but DNA is the only thing keeping her alive.

"What are you thinking, baby?"

"Just about Alice, and how she can hate me so much. I thought I was over it, but hearing what she said to Jasper just brought it all up again."

"I'm sorry, baby - I wish I knew what happened to her."

"It's okay. I shouldn't let it bother me. How are you feeling about it?" she asked as she moved her fingers over the back of my hand.

"I swear to god if she wasn't family she wouldn't be alive anymore."

"I know. I guess she should be happy about that," she said as I pulled into our driveway.

"Yeah I guess," I said.

I got out of the car and came around to her side and helped her out.

I held her around the waist as we walked up the sidewalk.

"Once I have you settled in front of the fireplace, I'll come back out and get our gifts."

"I like the sound of that."

"I plan for us to make love with the Christmas lights flickering over your beautiful skin," I said as we walked up to the front door.

She smiled up at me as I held the door open for her.

I guided her over to the couch as I started a fire in the fireplace.

"Don't move, baby," I told her after I started the fire.

She nodded as I went outside to grab our stuff.

It didn't take me long to get everything inside and then I took her in my arms and held her to me.

She pulled me to her and her lips met mine.

Her fingers were tangled in my hair as our tongues moved against each others.

She moaned in my mouth as she pulled me to her.

I moved my lips down to her neck as I murmured her name.

"Bella, you taste good."

"Mmm," she moaned.

I slipped my hands under her shirt, moving my hand to her breast.

"Edward," she murmured as she arched up into my hand.

I slipped my hand around her to undo her bra and pull it down her body.

I moved my hand to her warm, full breast and pinch her nipple between my fingers.

"Fuck," she moaned as my other hand worked the buttons on her shirt.

I unbuttoned the shirt and pushed it off her shoulders revealing her full breasts to me.

"Fuck, so beautiful." I murmured as I closed my lips around her pert nipple.

"Mmm... yes, Edward," she murmured as she slid her fingers into my hair.

I moved my hands down to her pants, sliding them down.

She lifted up so that I could get them off of her.

Mmm... she looked fucking gorgeous in the glow from the fireplace and as the Christmas lights reflected on her skin.

As soon as she was bare I moved a hand between her legs, "Already so wet baby."

"Y..yes," she said as she parted her legs further for me.

"I slid a finger into her wet warmth as I brushed my thumb over her clit."

"Fuck," she panted as she arched upward into my hand.

I sucked her nipple harder as I pumped my fingers in her.

She cried out as I pushed my finger in deeper and she moved against me.

I loved hearing her cries and moans as she writhed against me.

She bucked against me and I knew she was getting close.

"Ed.. ward," she cried out loudly as she gripped the pillows above her head.

I curled my fingers inside her and her pussy clamped hard on my fingers.

"That's it, baby. Come for me," I murmured as I licked over her nipple.

She squirted all over my fingers as she called out my name.

"Mmm.. yeah, baby. So fucking beautiful," I said as I slipped my fingers out of her pussy.

Her hands pulled at my shirt in a frenzy as my hands worked to free myself from my pants.

I couldn't wait to be buried deep inside her pussy.

Once I pushed my pants out of the way I thrusted into her with a loud groan.

She felt so incredible as I pounded into her.

"Bella," I groaned out as she lifted her hips up to meet my thrusts.

I held her hips tightly as I moved in and out of her.

"Ooooh... yeah, Edward. So fucking deep, more, baby," she murmured as she held me to her.

I pounded even harder and it felt so good.

I could feel the sweat breaking out on my body as I moved over and inside her.

"Fuck Bella, oh god you feel amazing," I panted as I pushed her legs up high around me.

"Let go, Edward...come for me," she panted out.

"I .. I want you to c..come first, baby," I murmured.

She reached for her nipples and gave them a twist.

"Fuck," she called out as her pussy gripped onto me.

"That's it baby," I said as I came right behind her.

I collapsed onto her, panting deeply.

"I love you so much, baby."

"I love you, Edward."

I wrapped my arms around her and held her to me.

Her fingers stroked through my hair and down my back.

"Did you enjoy our family Christmas?" I asked kissing her forehead.

"Yeah I did, it will be fun to have two new additions next year. Ours and Emmett's."

"It will, and then the year after that, and the year after that."

She laughed and snuggled closer to me.

"What?" I asked.

"How many more kids do you want?" she asked with a laugh.

"As many as you're comfortable with," I said as I kissed her lips.

She laid her head on my chest and I held her as the fire crackled and the tree lights shone on us.

"You're so beautiful, love."

I could feel her smile against me and knew she was also blushing.

"I hope you had a good Christmas," she said quietly.

"I did because I spent it with my wife and children."

She smiled up at me as I moved my fingers over her lips.

"I'm sorry about the stuff with Alice," I said quietly.

"You already apologized for that," she said softly.

"I know, but I don't like seeing you hurt."

"I know. I'll be fine."

"I wish I could protect you from everything."

"I know," she said tracing patterns on my chest.

"I will always do my best to keep you and our children safe," I said as I moved my hand down to her stomach.

"You do."

"Sometimes I feel like I fail you."

"Why? You've never failed us," she said looking up at me.

"Well for one, I pushed you to go with Victoria and look what that nearly did to us. Two, Alice is my sister.

"Alice isn't your responsibility and you couldn't have known about Victoria."

"It's my responsibility to make sure you are safe. I should've checked her out beforehand."

"You can't do everything Edward - everything is fine now."

"I know, baby. I just have so much regret over how I acted," I said looking into her eyes.

"Edward...don't do this to yourself, it's behind us - we'll both try harder now."

"I'm sorry, love. I will never not listen to you again."

"I know."

She yawned against me and I knew it was time to go to sleep.

I lifted her up in my arms and carried her to our bedroom and laid her on the bed.

"Baby, lets go to sleep. It's getting late," I said softly pulling her to me.

"Okay," she whispered sleepily.

I held her close to me as I kissed her sweet lips and then I watched as she drifted off to sleep.

I loved watching her as she slept in my arms, she looked so peaceful and beautiful.

My mind wouldn't shut off as I laid there with her in my arms.

I knew that our plan was coming together and that hopefully we could take down Caius easily and quickly, without any bloodshed.

After about an hour, I finally drifted off to sleep with my wife in my arms.

I woke with Bella sleeping on my chest and the sun streaming in our window.

She looked so beautiful as the sun shone on her.

I pushed some hair back from her face, looking at the small smile on her lips.

I loved watching her sleep, I always wondered what she was dreaming about.

I know I often dreamed of her and I hope she dreamed of me too.

I also dreamed of moving our family into more legitimate business - something I hoped to achieve before too long.

I haven't shared that with her yet, I wanted to make sure that its possible for me to do it, before I tell her or the family about it.

I have already begun looking at different investments to cleanse our money.

I hoped to be able to move all the family interests to investing and away from any criminal enterprise.

Would Bella be happy with me as a legit businessman?

I just want to ensure my families safety.

"Edward," she murmured as her eyes fluttered.

"Good morning, love."

She smiled brilliantly at me.

"Did you sleep well, love?" I asked.

"Mmm.. yes," she said as she stretched her arms above her head.

I smiled at her and kissed her lips softly.

"Did you sleep well?" she asked.

"Not bad - woke up a bit early."

"Why?

"Just thinking about something."

"Anything I can help you with?" she asked.

"Just your constant support, baby."

'You'll always have that."

I smiled at her and pulled her lips to mine.

"I love you, and when I have it all figured out I'll tell you all about it," I said softly as I held her to me.

"Okay," she said caressing my cheek.

"You're not going to try to get it out of me?" I asked.

"If you were ready to tell me then you would."

"I will, love. I just want to work on it a bit more."

"Okay," she said with a smile.

"You're a remarkable woman. Would you like me to make breakfast?" I asked.

"If you want I won't stop you."

"I'll be right back, don't leave this bed."

"I won't."

I smiled over at her as I grabbed my sleep pants and a t-shirt and I left the bedroom.

I walked down the stairs to the kitchen, feeling like I am forgetting something.

It was easy to figure out what I was missing, I usually checked on the kids before coming down the stairs.

I was thankful my mom had offered to keep them.

I decided to make scrambled eggs and english muffins.

I put everything on a tray and I carried it back up the stairs.

Bella was sitting up against the headboard when I walked in.

"Mmm.. something smells really good."

"Hope it tastes good."

She nodded as I placed the tray in her lap.

I sat next to her as she picked up the fork to take a bite.

"This is really good," she said.

I ate a few bites and smiled over at her.

We ate in silence with occasional smiles and light touches.

"Edward, do you have anything planned for New Years Eve?" she asked.

"Nothing specific, is there something you want to do?"

"No, just spend it with my family here will be perfect."

"We can definitely do that, baby."

After we finished I picked up our dishes and took them back downstairs.

As I was walking upstairs I could hear the shower running in our room.

I snuck into our bathroom and peeked in the shower.

My gorgeous wife was naked in the shower with her back turned as she let the water cascade over her.

I loved seeing her skin glistening in the water.

I quickly stripped out of my clothes and quietly opened the shower door.

She moaned as she leaned back in my arms, "It took you long enough."

"Sorry, love"

"It's okay, you're here now," she said as she turned in my arms.

She stretched up on her toes and kissed me softly.

I pulled her closer to me as our tongues moved against each others.

I brushed my fingers down her spine as I deepened the kiss, I so wanted to take her up against the wall.

I pushed her carefully against the wall.

"I want you, baby," I murmured as I kissed down her neck.

"Take me," she whispered.

I pushed her harder against the wall and pulled her legs up around my waist as I devoured her mouth.

"Fuck," she hissed out as she leaned back against the shower wall.

I loved seeing her breasts bounce as I thrusted inside her.

She grabbed ahold of my shoulders and moved herself faster.

"Baby, fuck so good," I murmured.

"Yes, Edward, harder," she moaned.

I loved when she told me what she wanted, and I never failed to give her what she wanted.

I pounded into her harder, loving how her moans echoed through the shower.

"Mmm... yeah, oooh yes, Edward."

"Touch yourself, baby," I groaned as I moved even faster.

I watched as she slid her hand down and she started to rub her clit as she moaned against me.

Fuck, it was sexy as hell to see her touching herself.

I could feel her walls beginning to flutter as she rubbed harder and I thrusted faster.

"Yes! Oh fuck yes, Edward," she called out as her pussy clamped on me.

"Oh... fuck yes, milk my cock, baby."

I could feel my cock jump inside her as I held her ass in my hands.

I groaned out her name as I came deep inside her.

"Bella," I panted against her neck.

I was still inside her as I held her against me.

"It's okay, baby," she murmured as her fingers ran through my hair.

"You're so amazing, baby," I told her as I peppered her with kisses.

"Mmm... I say that you're pretty fucking amazing too."

"We're amazing together."

"Always were," she said with a smile.

I slid her legs down gently and pulled her flush to me.

I loved feeling her nipples pressed against my chest.

"I suppose we should wash up," she said as she smiled up at me.

"I guess so."

After we washed up we got out of the shower and I wrapped a towel around her.

"Did I tell you that I love you?" I asked as I leaned my forehead against hers.

"Yes, but I always love hearing it."

"I love you, baby. Forever."

"I love you."

After drying off we got dressed, we couldn't wait to go get the kids and have a family day together.

I loved spending time with my family and I'm so glad that I get the chance to do that now.

We hopped in the car and drove toward my parents house.

When we got there and walked in Bailey squealed and ran to us.

"Hi sweet girl," I said swinging her into my arms.

"Da-da, we made donuts. Pop-pop and me."

"Awesome...that sounds fun."

"It was, but no donut for you. Unca Emmy ate yours," she said with a frown.

"Uncle Emmett is a pig - did you get mad at him?"

"Wes, I did. I told him those were for my da-da and ma-ma," she said looking as if she could cry.

"It's okay, baby, we'll go get some donuts, okay?"

She nodded as Bella came in with Grayson.

"Ma-ma, we going to get donuts."

"I know - daddy is pretty awesome."

She smiled up at us.

"Looks like you two had a good night," Mom said as she handed me their bag.

"Yeah, we did," I said with a smirk.

Bella wrapped her arm around my waist and looked up at me.

Mom laughed at us and dad gave me a wink.

Bella smiled at them as she looked up at me.

"Ready to go get Bailey a donut?" I asked.

"Yep, ready," she said.

"I get inkles and chocolate," Bailey said.

"Yes, sweetie you can have sprinkles and chocolate."

"Pop pop's donuts just had sugar."

"I bet they were yummy too.

"Yeah num num," she says rubbing her tummy.

"Thanks mom and dad," I said as Bella started bundling up the kids.

"It's never a problem, son," my dad said as he patted my back. "It was so good to see all the grand kids together. I took some pictures of them and I'll have copies for you both soon."

"Thanks."

Bella bundled her coat back on as I did and I picked up Bailey in my arms as Bella picked up Grayson.

"Drive safely Edward," my mother said as we walked out the door.

"Always do, mom."

I wrapped my arm around her waist as we walked down the stairs and down the sidewalk.

I helped her put Grayson in the car and then I helped her inside.

"Thank you," she said softly.

I put Bailey in her seat and then got inside, and started the car.

We drove in silence to the donut shop.

"Do you want me to run inside?" I asked.

"Sure - then we can just take them home."

"Any kind particular that you want?"

"Anything with chocolate is good with me."

"Okay, love. I'll be right back," I said as I leaned in and kissed her lips.

I ran inside and picked out a dozen donuts and hurried back to the car.

I handed her the donuts as I got in the car.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Nothing... your phone was ringing, and I didn't recognize the number, but it was a woman's name."

"You should have answered it - I don't know any woman that would be calling me."

"I wouldn't answer your phone without permission," she said.

"I wouldn't have cared, baby."

"Maybe she left you a message."

"Maybe, we'll listen later," I said starting the car.

I really didn't care who it was, the only woman I wanted to call me was right here next to me.

"You aren't curious?" she asked.

"Nope."

"Why not?"

"Because the only woman I want calling me is you," I said looking over at her.

She smiled at me and blushed.

"Edward, you say the sweetest things to me."

"I mean it, baby."

"I know," she said as she squeezed my hand.

I drove us home - eager for time with my family.

I pulled into the driveway and parked the car and then I got out and helped her out, then I got our children out.

We all went in and sat at the table, eating our donuts. I looked at my beautiful family and couldn't believe how lucky I was.

I couldn't help but smile as Bailey had chocolate and sprinkles all over her face.

I was truly a lucky man and I will never again take my family for granted.
