"Are we all friends again?" Isla asks.

Jessica chuckles and wipes her face. "It's a start."

"YAY!" Isla hugs Sarah's legs.

Sarah smiles and picks her up. "Hey put me down, you haven't even brushed your teeth!"

"Isla!" Jessica laughs.


Time went on and their relationship slowly became less awkward, and more like the way it was.  They weren't as close, but that would take time.

Two weeks later.

Danny took Jessica out on a date.  Jessica wore leggings and a sweater, her hair started off down but soon ended up in a messy bun.

Their date was at Top Golf.  The couple ordered wings and a pizza to share before they played a game.

The evening was filled with lots of laughs.  Neither one were a great golfer, so it definitely made for a good time.

Once they were finished the two cuddled.

"Listen. ."

"What?" Danny asked.

"There's no baby crying, or toddler screaming my name."

Danny laughs softly.

"Toddler.  I don't even have a toddler anymore.  She's a. . a freakin' kid!"

"Five years old.  That's a whole hand, Mom."

"I know!  Where has the time gone?"

"You miss having a little baby?"

"I do. . those times were so hard.  But man they were great!" Jessica smiles.  Her eyes glistening.

"You've always been so great with her."

"You too, mister."

"Thanks.  I love my little Poopy."

Jessica laughs. "I cannot believe I said that in front of you."

"You thought you had to go!  It's okay."

"It's so gross."

"Nah.  It was just Isla!" Danny shrugs.

Jessica laughs and looks up to him. "You were so helpful.  Thank you for being there for me."

"It was my pleasure.  It was beautiful."

Jessica smiles.

"Plus, I got to see your butt."

"Oh God!" Jessica laughs.

Danny chuckles and their lips touch.

Today is January 31st.  One day before Isla's 5th birthday.

Jessica sat in the living room holding Holly and feeding her a bottle.

"Mommy, is that big girl milk in there?"

"It's Gaga's milk."

"Ew!" Isla scrunches her nose. "How'd it get in that bottle?"

"It's magic!" Catherine smiles.

"Oooh!  Magic!"

"Yep."

"Mama, were your boobies magic too?"

"Yes they were." Jessica laughs.

"Wow!  I bet mine are too." She places her hands on her chest and looks down.
