YN was asleep on the couch as I came downstairs with my workout clothes on.
I laid a blanket over top of her and turned the tv off.
I sighed as I stared at her beautiful face. My wife was the kind of beautiful that knocked you off of your feet! The kind of beauty that made me wonder how I got her when I really looked at her face. With or without make-up she was a black queen and I felt blessed to have her.
With her pregnancy hormones being all over the place we argued a lot though. This pregnancy is a lot tougher for her than her pregnancy with Duke.
We got into a huge argument last night and I guess she just couldn't stand to sleep in the bed with me so she came downstairs.
Duke-DADDY! He yelled for me from upstairs.
I didn't want him to wake his mom up from being so loud so I ran up the steps to his bedroom.
Diggy-What's up man? I asked him.
Duke-Take a picture of me. He cheesed.
This kid knew he was a cute little thing! Every time he got dressed he had to ask me or YN to take a picture of him.
I laughed and grabbed my cell phone out of my pocket snapping a picture of him.

Duke-Its sexy dad? My six year old son asked.
I laughed.
YN-Its cute. I heard her soft voice from over my shoulder.
I turned and looked at her and she smiled warmly.
Diggy-Good morning... I was wondering if she was still angry.
YN-Hi. She said and then looked at Duke.
Diggy-How'd you sleep? I raised my eyebrow.
YN-Good. Where are you guys going? She asked while rubbing her big belly with her ring gleaming on her finger.
Diggy-For a run. I said nonchalantly while putting my phone back in my pocket.
YN-Oh okay, we'll have fun and b-be safe! She smiled before running out of Dukes room and to the bathroom and across the hall.
I heard YN throwing up into the toilet. It must be morning sickness.
Duke looked at me and shook his head.
Diggy-What? I chuckled at my son.
Duke-I can tell when you two are are mad with each other but daddy she needs help right now. He said while getting up and walking to the bathroom.
He held YN's hair back and rubbed her back as she continued to vomit.
YN stood up and rinsed her mouth out.
YN-Thank you, baby. She smiled down at Duke.
Duke-I love you, mommy. He hugged her legs.
I smiled at how compassionate he was.
Diggy-You ready to go? I asked Duke.
Duke-Yes! Bye mommy! He kissed her belly and then ran down the steps.
I kissed YN's forehead.
YN-Diggy listen t-
Diggy-Shhhh you don't have to say anything babe. I get it! You have every right to be upset. Dolphins ARE cuter than whales.
YN giggled and I smiled and stroked her hair.
YN-That's such a stupid thing to argue about! If I wasn't pregnant that wouldn't have happened. She smiled before kissing my cheek.
She was such an angel.
Diggy-I love you. I rubbed her stomach and pecked her lips before heading downstairs.
Duke and I stretched in the drive way before going on our run.
Duke-Daddy! I'm gonna beat you! He said as we took off running.
About 2 miles and 30 minutes later I was running with Duke on my back as we got close to the house again.
Duke-RUN DADDY! FASTER! I NEED THE WIND IM HOT! He commanded as he bounced up and down on my back.
I laughed and then grunted as I found the strength to run faster
