"Do you think Damian still has his Santa costume from high school?" Cady asks one night at about two in the morning.

"Why?" Janis groans, crawling back into bed after getting the twins back to sleep.

"I want to get Santa photos with the squishes," Cady says. "But the mall can be kind of overwhelming, and their stranger danger sense is sort of on overdrive right now. But they know him, so I think if he was willing to be Santa for us they'd go a lot better."

"Oh," Janis yawns. "He probably does, I'll text him tomorrow. If not we can just put you in your rocking around the pole costume."

"Absolutely not," Cady yawns back. "I should've burned that thing a long time ago."

"Noooo," Janis pleads. Cady flicks her gently before cuddling in under the duvet.

"Dork. Goodnight, I love you."

"I love you too."

Janis keeps her promise and texts Damian as soon as they wake up the next morning, while Cady feeds the babies.
