NBA Christmas
"And oh, you are my everything, come a little closer, God must have sent you down from heaven."
Mitchell's Household
"Mama! I want to watch Frozen." Noleè tells her mother, Lyani smiles putting the tv on Disney Plus. "Okay, we can watch whatever you want to watch princess." Lyani says grabbing the fluffy blue blanket, wrapping her daughter up in it, gaining giggles from Noleé.
Donovan comes downstairs with a babbling Ciana in his hands. "You see mommy, pretty girl?" Kissing her forehead, Donovan sits next to Lyani on the couch. "Kai's taking a nap, he was tired from playing basketball earlier today." Donovan explains to Lyani as she nods her head while taking Ciana from out his arms.
Lyani coos at Ciana, gaining a gummy smile on return. "She's turning one soon, they grow up too fast for me." Lyani pouts while looking at Donovan. Laughing Don places his wife's feet in his lap, beginning to rub them, "Baby, she's only turning one."
"So! It feels like yesterday when I went into labor." Lyani says thinking back to that amazing day.
"Donnie?" Lyani taps him on his shoulder as he rolls over and wraps his arm around her waist. "Yes mama?" He asks in that sleepy voice Lyani loves to hear so much.
"I can't sleep." She tells him, laying her head on his chest. Donovan chuckles, "Why can't you pretty girl?" Lyani shrugs her shoulders, staring out into the dark room, "I'm too worried about being in labor again for the third time."
Donovan's eyes soften, "You never have anything to worry about baby. I'll be there with you and any issue you have, I promise I'll speak up in honor of your name. Okay?"
Lyani smiles, feeling a bit more relaxed in her husband's arms, "Okay. I love you so much."
Donovan leans down planting a small kiss on Lyani's lips, "There's not enough words in the world to describe my love for you, baby."
Lyani blushes, "Are you always trying to make me blush, Mr. Mitchell?" Donovan laughs, "It seems to work, doesn't it pretty girl?"
"It does." Lyani says in agreement. The room gets silent and Lyani thinks Donovan is falling back to sleep until he cuts on their bed lights, looking down at Lyani in his arms. "Why'd you do that?"
"I just wanted to see that beautiful face of yours." Donovan says leaning down to plant another soft kiss on Lyani's lips. "This is literally how I ended up in this predicament."
