Having The Bad Boy's Baby (new version)

Epilogue: Jacob

*2 years later*

It's been two years since Brook and I went on tour and though it has been an incredible experience being able to sing to fans around the world, and seeing how much our music touched them, but nothing beat watching my kids learn all that there is to know about the wiles around them.

As I sat on the porch of our home on a warm summer evening, watching my son play with his toys and my daughter scribble in her coloring book, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the life we had built together.

Brook and I had worked hard to balance our music career with our family life, and seeing our children happy and thriving made it all worth it. Sure, there were challenges and sacrifices along the way, but the joy and fulfillment we found in both our music and our family made it all worthwhile.

We had just released a new album that was getting great reviews, and we were planning our next tour. But this time, we had made sure to schedule in regular breaks so that we could spend more time at home with the kids.

As I watched the sun set and listened to the laughter of my children, I knew that no matter where our music took us, our home and family would always be our greatest treasure. And I couldn't wait to see what the future held for all of us.

Our music continued to resonate with fans around the world, and we were grateful for the opportunities that came our way. Brook and I made the decision to take a break from touring and spend more time at home. It was a difficult choice, but one that we knew was necessary for the well-being of our children. As we settled into a more regular routine, we found joy in simple moments – family dinners, movie nights, and weekend outings. It was a welcome change of pace, and one that brought us even closer together.

We continued to work on music, writing and recording songs in our home studio. We wanted to be able to share our passion with the world, but on our own terms. With the support of our fans, we released an acoustic album that showcased a more intimate side of our music. The response was overwhelming, and we felt grateful to be able to connect with our audience in such a personal way.

As our children grew, they began to show an interest in music as well. It warmed my heart to see them singing and playing instruments, and it made me realize that our love for music was something that we had passed on to them. It wasn't long before they were joining us in our home studio, adding their own voices and creativity to our music.

With our family by our side, Brook and I felt ready to take on new challenges in our music career. We began working on a new album, drawing inspiration from the experiences and memories we had collected over the years. We wanted to create music that reflected who we were as a family, and the love and connection that we shared.

As we stepped back into the music scene, we felt more grounded and purposeful than ever before. Our music spoke of love, family, and the beauty of life, and we were grateful to be able to share that with the world. We continued to tour, but now with our children by our side, and it was a truly special experience.

Looking back on the last two years, I couldn't help but feel grateful for the journey that had brought us to where we were now. Our music had taken us to incredible places, but our greatest adventure was the one we had at home, with our precious family. And as we looked ahead to the future, I knew that we were ready for whatever life had in store for us.

"What are you thinking about?" Brook's soft voice asked breaking me out of my thoughts. I smiled and looked up at my wife who glowed like the goddess she was even if she thinks she's not.
