Joe calls Melissa as she heads towards the border.
Melissa answers, "Hey baby."
Joe, "Hey mommas. Where did you go?"
Melissa, "I just have to take care of some investment and stuff but I'll definitely be back before New Year's and be back before our honeymoon starts again."
Joe, "When you get to where you're going FaceTime me. I want to see you. I love you and be safe."
Melissa, "Okay daddy. I love you too."
Joe looked down at his hard on and went to take a shower so he can get the children up and cook breakfast for them.
Peyton, "Pony hair dada."
Joe, "Okay. I don't know if it's going to be as good as mommas but daddy will try."
Peyton, "Otay." Eats her ruffles as Joe combs, brushes and puts the ponytail in her hair. Joe hands her a mirror.
Joe, "What do you think baby girl?"

Peyton, "Pwetty dada."
Joe picks up, "You are so pretty even without the ponytail. Let's go get breakfast."
Peyton, "You my favorite."
Joe, "No you're my favorite."
Peyton giggles, "No mine."
Joe, "Mine."
Peyton giggled as they went back and forth saying they were each other's favorite.
Peyton, "Where's mommy?"
Joe, "She'll be back soon. She told me to tell you that she loves you so much."
Peyton smiles, "Otay."
On cue Camille comes running by in just her Dora the Explorer underwear with Yasmine trying to walk fast behind her to put her clothes on.
Yasmine, "Come here Stinka so you can get your clothes on. Morning Joe."
Joe, "Good morning. Slow down and rest I'll get her."
Camille looks behind her to see Joe coming and she takes off running outside.
Joe, "LORD Jesus. This girl is going to be a track star."
Joe takes off behind her and Camille just laughs as Joe chases her. Joe finally catches her and throws her over his shoulder as she kicks, screams and laughs.
Joe sits her down at the table, "Eat and I'll give you a wash up afterwards since you been running all outside."
Camille, "I don't stink."
Joe, "You smell like fresh grass. The lawn just got cut this morning."
Camille, "No!"
They all eventually joined the table to have breakfast and enjoyed their morning with laughs and food.

Melissa FaceTime Joe and he heads to his room ans answers.

Melissa, "Hey babe."
Joe, "Damn."
