Finchel Fam

Finn woke up with a throbbing pain in his head. He groaned to himself and shuffled downstairs, in fear of waking Rachel up. In the kitchen, he took some medicine and went to sleep on the couch.
Rachel woke up and went downstairs to start making breakfast. She gasped in surprise to see Finn laying on the couch, asleep. He never slept on the couch, it was too uncomfortable. "Hey baby." She gently nudged him. "Happy Birthday!" She exclaimed wen he opened his eyes. He tried to smile, but the pain in his head was too great. He had almost forgotten it was his birthday. "Mm, thanks." He muttered softly.
"Are you alright?" Rachel asked, concern lacing her voice.
"Headache. I'll be fine in an hour."
"Alright Finn. I'll go watch Bud upstairs so you can rest. Big day planned!" They were going bowling then out to dinner.
He gave her a weak smile and closed his eyes.
Rachel walked upstairs to wake her son. "Hey, big guy!"
"Momma hi!"
Rachel smiled. She absolutely loved being a mom. "Did you sleep well? Are you ready to play with me?"
Bud nodded. "Where's Dada?"
"He's sleeping."
"Tired?"
Rachel nodded. "But I'll play with you this morning, okay? Maybe we can make a card for your dad, because it's his birthday."
"Yay Dada!" Bud squealed, and they spent the rest of the morning making pictures for Finn.
Thankfully, when they went back downstairs, Finn was up and said he felt much better. So they went on with their day, and Finn loved the picture that Bud drew of himself, Finn, and Rachel.
