"Forget the Wiggles," I walked in on Mandy fixing lunch and Harley watching the Wiggles in her high chair. "Harley should come see me preform tonight. I think she's old enough." I said. The guys and I are performing four songs at this music festival tonight. Mandy looked off into space thinking about it. "Please," I begged. "Harls will love it. Plus I'd really like my girls there. She needs to hear real music. Not this junk." I said motioning to the TV. I got near Mandy and wrapped my arms around her waist then kissed her neck. "Well..." She said as I continued knowing her weakness. "I haven't seen you play in a while..." It was working, she was caving. "Alright fine!" She pushed my forehead back. "Did you hear that Harley? Your gonna see Daddy on stage!"

Getting on stage I couldn't help but look over at the two most beautiful girls in the world. They were on my right standing in front of the gate that holds the fans back, with a bodyguard and Luke's girl, Sam. Harley was on Mandy's hip with little headphones on so the screams and blasting music don't damage her eardrums. I hope she can still hear me through them. I smiled and waved at them till Mandy's eyes met with mine. My smile grew ear to ear watching Mandy show Harley where I was then Harley's face lighting up. My smile stayed with me through the first song. It was one of those moment when everything was right in the world. I'm sitting on my drum set playing music with my two favorite people front row. "How's everybody doing tonight!?" I said into the mic and the crowd cheered. "I've got two special guest here tonight!" I crowd went wild. "Everyone behave for Harley- it's her first concert! That includes you, Michael!"
Calum (her)
"Keep bouncing her." I said passing Bird over to Calum as I heard my ringtone go off. We were waiting for our flight to Canada at the airport. This year we were spending Xmas with my family since Thanksgiving this year and Xmas last year was with the Hoods. I've been nervous about Bird screaming on the plane and disturbing everyone. Calum and I have been trying our best to keep Bird awake and active so she'll pass out asleep during the flight. Calum took her then said, "Come on Rache! Your on your holiday break. Don't answer it. You can do it!" I took my phone out of my bag. "Just because I'm on break doesn't mean the law is." I said. I looked at the caller ID and thought about it. I am on winter vacation... But this is a very important client.... It's winter vacation. I took a deep breath. "Fine." I muttered turning off my phone. "Yay! High five!" Calum cheered holding up his hand. I slowly gave him a high five. "Flight to Toronto is now boarding."
During take off I bottle fed Bird to prevent ear pain from the air pressure change. "Look at the clouds Bird!" Calum said pointing to the clouds outside the window as she sat on his lap. She looked out and saw the fluffy white clouds. She babbled as she reached her hand out to the window. She frowned realizing she couldn't touch them. "I know it's a shame we can't touch them!" I giggled. Then Calum read her favorite book. She seemed to have wined down when the story was over. I smiled seeing her fade. That's exactly what I was hoping for. Don't want to jinx it but I'd say Birds first plane ride is a success!
Luke (his)
"Chase is sick." Sam said holding Chase in her arms. I softly groaned to myself. It's way too early in the morning. I sat up leaning my head against the headboard of our bed. "Why do you think that?" I asked concerned about Chases health. Sam sat down on her side of the bed and placed Chase in between us. "Hey buddy are you not feeling well?" I tickled his belly with my pinky. He babbled a few syllables. Chase did look pale and not like his usual happy giggly self. "He has a little cough, runny nose, and he's not eating much." She said wiping he's nose. "Oh no," I frowned. I don't want my little guy sick. "We should call the doctor," I said. She nodded. "Yeah I already did. She said it's just a cold and not to worry. She also told me what kinds of medicines I can give him so we're good." Honestly what would I do without my amazing wife who's always on top of things? "Ok good....What should we do now?" I asked feeling stupid. Hey, I'm still new at this! "I guess we just try our best to take care of him and make him comfortable." She said over Chases soft coughs. Even his tiny coughs were cute. I nodded looking down at him. Then he started to tremble and wave his arms around. When he does that he wants something. "What do you want baby?" Sam furrowed her eyebrows thinking about what he wants. He was babbling sounds that started with a 'p'. "Pengy! I think he wants his penguin." I said leaping up out of bed. I walked into Chases room and found the puff ball in his crib. Sam and my mom bought it for him when she was pregnant. I remember when they came home with it and I thought it was for me! I grabbed the penguin that Chase loves so much and brought it to him. Once he saw me holding his penguin his eyes lit up. "Here ya go" I put in on his tummy and he wrapped his arms around it. I smiled glad I was somewhat helpful. "How'd you know he wanted his penguin?" Sam asked grinning. I chuckled, "Because I have that same look whenever I don't have my penguins."
Michael (his)
I turned the steeling wheel to the right, making it the eleventh loop around my neighborhood. I've been going on these little drives around the neighborhood everyday. It helps me clear my head and I like having some alone time. I think the night I told Char something was up was just a slight scare. It only lasted for week. I'm better now. I don't think my mental health issues will ever be completely 'fixed' though.
I opened the door and found my wife on the couch waiting for me. She was biting her nails which means she's got something on her chest. "Hey babe," I walked further into the living room. "Are the boys asleep?" I asked siting in the love seat across from the couch. She moved to the edge of the couch. "Yes and you would know what their exact bedtime was if you wouldn't magically disappear each day. Look I get your having tiny problems with your head but I need you here." She said looking straight into my eyes. I looked down at my converse fighting to look up. "Every time your not here they notice and say your name repeatedly." She added. That's when I looked up. She was on the verge of tears. I sighed, not really knowing what to say. "I know I'm being selfish but they out number me...and lord knows when you go back on tour. Then you really won't be here to help me." She sat back and looked away. 'What have I done?' I thought. I got up and hugged her as tight as I could. "I promise to be with you three for as long as I can."
