Gilmore Girls - A year in the Life - Continuation

Part 53

24 day's pass December 24th

It's Christmas even and Finn, Stephanie and their kids plus Colin, Rosemary and their twin's are spending it together In New haven at Rory and Logan's place, Robert, Juliet and their kid's are with Juliet's family for Christmas much to Robert's dismay. Colin and Rosemary are still living apart but he has the kid's 4 day's a week since Rosemary would rather party then be a mother, That's one of the big reason's Colin is upset turns out she wanted a full time nanny so she could go out and spend time with her unmarried childless friends, She's sleeping in her own room in the guest house, The twins have a room of their own and Colin is in the last room, Finn is staying in the guest room in the main house. It's a fairly relaxed Christmas for them all, Colin and Rosemary actually seem a bit happier the last few day's. Tonight they are all going to the Huntzburger mansion for Christmas even dinner as Mitchum requested, Hes actually started to like Colin and Finn but still doesn't like Robert so much possibly because he knows Robert has a thing for Rory and has since College. While at the Huntzburger home in Hartford Mitchum takes Logan aside into his study to talk to him.

"Son, I want to say something to you"

"Yes Father"

"I know I haven't always been the best father, nor the most present and I am grateful that you and Rory have given me a second chance at building our relationship. I just want you to know that I am truly proud of you Logan, You have become the kind of man I had always hoped you would be, Strong, focused, grounded. You're leading this company in a good direction, I didn't think it was possible to be both a good business man and a good husband and father, I always thought proving for my family and making sure you all had everything you could ever want or need was the most important thing. It wasn't until I saw how you are with Rory and the kids that I realized it is possible to be both. She makes you a better man Logan, She pushes you to be your best personally and professionally and for that I am grateful. I'm happy that you have found a way to be a great father, Husband and Business man."

"Thank you father that makes me so happy that you are proud of what I have become and what I am doing both professionally and personally, I need you to understand that I know why you were that way with me and honor growing up, You thought you where doing what was right, What was expected of you. I just, I couldn't do the things you asked of me. I couldn't be the heir to the Huntzburger dynasty without Rory by my side, She reminds me of all the things I love about the business, She bring's me the joy I needed"

Logan went into the Sitting room asked Finn to keep an eye on the kids so he could have a quick chat with Rory. Logan still in shock of his dad's words a little bit told Rory what had happened and what Mitchum had said and she was even in utter shock, So much she was speechless to be exact. Mitchum Huntzburger actually admitting that Logan was doing a good job, a better job then Mitchum himself and on top of it inviting Logan's friends and their little families for Christmas eve dinner was a huge deal but Gwen and retirement brought out a new side of Mitchum, He was enjoying life, His grandkids and even the social events he formerly thought where "Stupid" he loved Gwen so much he would do anything she asked him too.
