With Eli being 18 months old now and in his own room Eren and Mikasa could finally go back to their normal night time routine. Today with a normal morning Eren and Mikasa we're just relaxing in bed since he didn't start work until lunch. They are relaxing until Mika comes in jumping on the bed to wake them up.

As Eren and Mikasa enjoyed their peaceful morning, the tranquility was soon interrupted by Mika bursting into their room and jumping on the bed.

"Wake up! Wake up!" Mika shouted, bouncing with energy.

Eren groaned playfully, pulling the blanket over his head. "Mika, it's too early for this."

Mikasa chuckled, reaching out to ruffle Mika's hair. "Good morning, sweetie."

Mika grinned. "Good morning! Can we have pancakes for breakfast? Please!"

Eren peeked out from under the blanket, smiling. "Only if you help us make them."

"Deal!" Mika giggled, already excited to get started on breakfast.

Mikasa exchanged a knowing glance with Eren, their peaceful morning now filled with Mika's lively energy just how they loved it.

After breakfast the family had a quiet morning cleaning up and getting ready for the day. Mikasa was dressing Eli when Mika came in.

"Mummy can we play hide and seek?" She asked

"Have you cleaned your room?" Mikasa asked

"Yes!" Mika replied

"You can play later. I gotta get your brother ready, okay!"

"But I want to play now!" Mika said

"I'm sorry but I can't and your dad's getting ready for work I'm getting your brother ready you gotta have to wait okay!" Mikasa replied

"I want to do it now. I want to play hide and seek!" Mika aggreued

"Mika I said not now! If you keep asking, I won't play with you later either" Mikasa said

"But-"

"Mika! I have a headache so not now!" Mikasa

"But mummy!"

"Mika listen to your mother" Eren said

Mika huffed, crossing her arms in frustration, but when she saw both Eren and Mikasa looking at her firmly, she knew she had to give in.

"Fine..." she muttered, dragging her feet as she left the room, clearly disappointed.

Mikasa sighed, rubbing her temples. "I didn't mean to snap, I just—"

Eren interrupted her gently, placing a hand on her shoulder. "You're doing fine. She'll bounce back. I'll talk to her when I'm done getting ready. Maybe we can all play later," Eren reassured her, kissing her forehead before heading off to finish getting dressed.

Once Eren left, Mikasa turned back to Eli, who was babbling happily as she finished dressing him. She smiled at her son's innocent joy, feeling a little better as his calm energy brought her peace.

A short while later, Eren found Mika sulking on the couch, her arms still crossed.

"Hey, kiddo," he said, sitting beside her. "I know you're upset, but you can't always get what you want right away. Mommy's tired, and she needed a break."
