The house was silent as Taylor opened the front door and made her way inside. She wandered through the front hall towards the sliver of light coming from under the living room door, which was pulled to, and listened at the door.

"Non, ma cherie. Il faut attendre maman." She heard one of her favourite voices say.

"Mais papa! Can't we just start watching the movie now? S'il-te-plait ?" A younger voice replied, a begging tone evident.

Taylor smiled as she pushed the door open slightly, making two faces turn towards her.

"Maman!" The little girl squealed as she jumped up and ran towards the door.

"Hello sweetheart!" Taylor said, bending down slightly to wrap her arms around her almost 6-year-old daughter Isabel, placing a kiss on the top of her head before letting go of the bubbly little girl.

"Papa said we had to wait for you before we watched a movie, and now you are here...alors assieds-toi!" She said, dragging her mother by the hand towards the sofa where Tom was sitting, cradling their newest addition, a son named Oliver, who was no longer very new at almost 1-year-old.

"How was your meeting darling?" Tom asked as Taylor sat down next to him, Issy sitting on the other side of her.

"It went well. We've got some work to do to get the album perfect, but it should be ready by the end of the year." She explained, leaning over and giving him a kiss before giving her sleeping son a kiss too.

"That's good." He said, slipping his arm around her shoulders as they started to play a new Disney cartoon movie that Tom had done a voice for and got an advance copy of.

"I see your French lessons are going well with Issy." Taylor said, smiling slightly.

They had decided to teach their kids French from a young age, as Taylor had picked up quite a bit over the last few years and experts say learning language at a young age is the best thing for brain development.

"She's picking it up.... It's fun." Tom replied, chuckling slightly and feeling a sense of pride.

"Shhh.... Maman, Papa!!" Issy said, holding a finger to her lips as the film started.

Taylor smiled at Tom and leaned her head onto his shoulder to watch the film.
