It's been three weeks since what happened with Ally. I hate having to lie to Tana about it, but what can I say? She'll kill me if she found out my lips were on another womans. So I'm trying to forget about it. Try to get it off my mind and focus on my family and not on the stupid thing that happened.

 "What time is it?" My beautiful woman asks me.

 "About to me 11pm..shall we go to bed?"

 "Yeah okay" She simply answers.

 I turn the TV off and lock the doors and turn the lights off. I see her about to walk up the stairs so I quickly swing her over my shoulder and she giggles at me and I carry her to our bedroom and gently drop her down on the bed. 

She keeps giggling and my lord is she cute! My eyes are full of desire and I think she knows what's going to happen next...

---

 I wake up the next morning with Tana cuddling me. My arms are wrapped around her tight. We both slept in after the acitvities we both were in last night. My eyes squinted open when I saw the bright light of the sun glaring through the curtains. I grabbed my phone from my bedside table and held it firmly in my hand, noticing I had three text messages from Ally, all of them apologizing for what she did, can't she see I'm pissed with her? I'm not having it. What she did was wrong. 

 "Babe.." Tana woke with a smile across her face.

"Morning baby.." I say putting my phone down on my 

bedside table and then move a part of her hair out of her eyes, seeing her beautiful face.

I gently placed a kiss on her lips making her giggle. She is so adorable. I kiss her nose before sliding my body out from underneath the covers and I walk down the light colored hall and open the door to Ammon's room seeing him awake, cuddling with his teddy bear, the one I bought him on tour. He loves and uses everything I get him on tour. No matter how much I spend, I'll go to all lengths to make my boy happy.

 "Morning buddy.." I smiled at him, standing next to his bed.

"Morning daddy.." He returned the smile.

 I gently pick him up and hold him up above my face. He starts giggling and kicking his legs. Tana dressed him in a cute little onsie last night with cartoon cars on it, all sorts of colors, scattered around the material.

"Daddy!" His voice is so cute.

"Say you love me and I'll put you down.." I can't help but giggle back at him.

"I love you daddy! Put me down!" He almost screams with laughter. I bring him down to my face and kiss his lips.

"I love you too buddy.." I hold him close to my chest, cradling him.

I carry him into Gunnar's room, my youngest baby is still sleeping. Perfectly tucked under his little baby blue blanket, sleeping lightly in his crib. 

"Isn't your brother so cute?" I ask Ammon.

He nods his head, not talking because he knows if he speaks too loud he'll wake Gunnar up, what an amazing older brother, not wanting to wake his sibling, most brothers would want to do that. I put Ammon back on flat ground and he runs into mine and Tana's room to spend some time with his mommy. I pick Gunnar up with his blanket wrapped around his tiny body, his little delicate body. I sit down on the rocking chair in the corner of the room, holding him close to my chest, rocking his body back and fourth, making sure he stays asleep. He smiles in his sleep, knowing his daddy is taking care of him and keeping him safe.

 5 months later..

I've been sitting here rocking Gunnar for an hour now, I've read him two stories. One about animals and the other about the alphabet, he's starting to recognise more things now. His dark brown eyes are scanning the walls around him, taking everything he sees into account, looking at all the pictures and colors, smiling at them all before his eyes land on me. He smiles at me, his smile is so adorable. I pull a funny face, sticking my tongue out and making my eyes wide, he lets out a loud giggle. He grabs my plain dark blue shirt with his tiny hands and gripping with all the force he has. 

"Aren't you a strong little guy?" I ask, hoping for an answer.

His smile doesn't leave his face once, I gently place a kiss on his lips.

My little boy is a year old now, he's growing every day. We had a small party for him with our family and closest friends, Ronnie, Mark and Dave was here sharing a very special moment with a proud daddy.  I never knew a year could fly by so fast, but he's becoming more beautiful each second. I think he looks more like me now, his hair is darker, now he know's he's got his daddy's eyes (see what I did there?;)).  Everything just suddenly stops, he stares at me.

"Daddy.." He says his first word.

"What did you just say?" I say in complete shock. My baby just said his first word! I've been waiting for this for so long!

"Daddy.." He repeats himself again.

"Tana!" I almost scream, scurrying to my feet and quickly rush into our bedroom. She's sitting in bed with Ammon laying in between her legs, watching cartoons with him.

"What's wrong baby?" She looks at me.

"Gunnar just said his first word! Listen!" I take a few steps closer to her so she can hear him more clearly.

"Show mommy what you just said .." I wait for his reply.

"Daddy.." He starts giggling uncontrollably. "Daddy.." He says again.

"Oh my God!" She almost screams. She takes him off me and holds him close to her chest. "Say it again.." 

"Daddy.." I can't stop smiling.

"Gunnar, now that you know 'daddy,' say 'mommy'..' I see if he can say more.

But he just stares, I guess it's just the one word for today.
