Knox and Izzy went back to Knox's house to drop Knox's car off then went to pick up the kids from the babysitter and go back to Izzy's house.

"Cash can sleep in the crib with Braxtyn if you want." Izzy said.

"And what about me?" Knox asked smirking. Izzy smiled.

"You can sleep on the couch." She said smiling. "Or with me." Knox kissed her softly.

"I may take you up on that offer." He said. " Izzy smiled.

"Come on let's go to bed." She said. She took his hand and walked to her bedroom.

The next morning, Izzy woke up and saw that Knox wasn't in the bed. She got up and went to the kid's rooms and found them empty. Worried, she hurried down the stairs to find Knox and the kids in the kitchen making breakfast.

"Good morning beautiful." Knox said kissing her cheek. 

"Good morning." Izzy said smiling. "We still going to the hospital in a couple hours?"

"Yes, I was thinking maybe we could bring the kids with us. I'm sure Crew would love to see them." Knox said.

"I'm ok with that." Izzy said. She helped him make plates of food for the kids then went to shower and get ready to head to the hospital.

"Mommy?" Logan asked walking into Izzy's room.

"Yes little man?" She asked turning to look at him.

"Can I call Mr. Knox daddy?" He asked her. Izzy froze. She wasn't sure how to respond.

"Why don't you ask him?" Izzy asked Logan after a moment.

"Ok mommy." Logan said running back downstairs. Izzy went downstairs a  minute later and heard Logan talking to Knox. "Mr. Knox? Can I call you daddy?"

"That is your choice." Knox told him. "You can call me whatever you want." Izzy heard Logan giggle and smiled.

"I love you daddy." Logan said happily. Izzy walked to where they were and smiled.

"Kids, it's time to get ready to go." She said. The kids all ran off to get dressed. "They love you." She said turning to Knox.

"I love them too." Knox said. "And I love you." He kissed her softly and smiled. Izzy smiled.

"Let's go see Crew." She said kissing him. She went to load the kids in the van.

"Mommy, do you love daddy?" Blake asked.

"I do." Izzy said. Once everyone was in the van, she headed to the hospital. When they got to the hospital, Lakelyn refused to go inside.

"No I no go in there." She said. "Daddy no make me." Knox knelt down in front of her.

"I won't make you go in if you don't want to but I think Crew would love to see you." He said. Lakelyn hugged him.

"I go see Crew." She said. Knox picked her up and walked into the hospital. A few minutes later, Dr. Chleborad walked into the waiting room to take them back to see Crew.

"I have news." He said.

"What is it?" Knox asked.

"Crew is doing great and will be able to go home today." Dr. Chleborad told him.

"That's great." Knox said. He turned to Izzy. "Babe, did you hear that?"

"Yeah." Izzy said smiling. Dr. Chleborad took them back to see Crew then went to get the discharge papers.

"All I need you to do is sign the papers and you are good to go." He said when he came back into the room. Knox nodded and signed the papers.

"Ready to go home?" He asked. Everyone nodded.

"Daddy?" Crew asked.

"Yes?" Knox asked turning to him.

"Will you marry Ms. Izzy?" Crew asked.

"Maybe one day." Knox said smiling. He picked Crew up and kissed his head.

"Ms. Izzy, can I call you mommy?" Crew asked as they were getting in the van to go home.

"Of course you can bubba." Izzy told him. "I love all of you so much." Everyone smiled and they headed home.
