Family Ties

I'm honored they choosed me

Roberta's POV
As I lay down in my bed and let the California sun in my face I look down at the familiar left arm that has the familiar gold band on his ring finger that is wrapped around my waist I start to reflect. Not just on me but just life. Almost a month ago I met an incredible little girl and a wonderful woman. I already know I'm going to love her like she is my own. About a week ago Mike got news that he will be honored and receiving the MBI Australian Award for his work not just as a entertainer but as an artist and a humanitarian. They asked me to open the ceremony and do the tributes I also get to introduce him and give him his award. I'm extremely honored I'm blessed really. So within today we will be busy. Next Sunday we will he heading out to Australia but I will leave first.. Different time then he'll leave. We will be there for some days and then the week afterwards our little girl turns 1 and he turns 36. Man time flies.. It really does. He doesn't know what he wants to do for his birthday but I think I have a plan for him. Back to reality I turn to this beautiful man that I also bless to call my husband. I examined him. He is sleep. I reflect on all the things That he does or him just being him . Like when he falls asleep his hair is always smashed up on his pillow I find that cute. How when he is I'm the middle of a thought he puts his hand on his chin. How when he talks he has a habit to laugh or giggle in the middle of his conversation. How when it's just us he likes to lay his head on my chest to listen to my heart beating and sometimes he'll fall asleep. How when he is upset he always shakes his left leg. How when he is in the dance studio he is completely "Michael Jackson "form. How is has that childlike personality that I've come to love from the very beginning when I met him in 1984.
I guess me staring at him too long woke him up because he's stirring. I creep out of bed and brush my teeth and wash my face and made my way to my little lady room. She is sleep in her crib and I can't help but stare at her. She's now 10 months old and she has a lot of features that I notice about her. Like she has my Rosy cheeks. She has Mike's hair. She has a Jackson smile which is very adorable. She has my nose. She has my forehead. She has Mike's lips which is so cute because she holds her mouth like me pouty like and his lips are heart shaped kinda and her face is small so it's so cute. She's going to have Mike legs... Long she has my fingers and toes. She's breathtaking. After staring at our creation I sit in her rocking chair and look through the photo albums.. I don't get to do this often . We put our photo albums in her room in her cubby with the rest of the books. I got as many pictures as I can from mother to put in Mike's photo album. I am going through mines and as I'm going through my book I open Mike's album and just stare at the two kids we use to be and how ironic is it. We are raising a child together. I closed the book and put them back and begin to pack her bag because my mommy is in town and of course wants to steal my child for some days hahaha . It's fine that gives me and Mike time for what is to come. I partially finished packing her bag because she is now up... Good morning baby talk.

Me: *picks her up * good morning mommy's princess.

Lyn : *laughs *.

She is learning how to walk now I'm excited. I changed her diaper and put her on some different clothes and went to go wake Mike up.

Me: hey honey *lightly sits Madelyn on his chest *

Mike: mmmm... Oh well good morning loves. *takes Lyn off his chest and holds her*

Me: how did you sleep?

Mike: I slept alright. How about you?

Me: I slept good.

Mike:* faces Lyn direction * and how about you

She starts laughing. Such a sweet girl.

I take Lyn from him while he gets himself together and make our way downstairs where breakfast is nicely done. After we are all done eating we are inform that our managers are here and therefore me and Mike spit up to discuss our hectic schedule that is yet to come.
