"baby, you ready?" you yelled up the stairs as you tied your shoes and adjusted your beige coat. you heard a quick response before you wandered to the kitchen where you put snacks, drinks and some sliced bread in your bag.

"come on!" you yelled again as you reached the front door. rumbling was heard before the small girl quickly stumbled down the stairs.

"i'm here, mom." she grinned. she wore a red dress with white flowers on it and chose her white sandals from the shoe rack. her dress matched yours since you were wearing a tight red dress that reached to your knees and had a nice v-neck which was not too revealing. your hair was naturally open and fell a little over your shoulders as your natural wave gave it a nice look.

"you look very pretty, mommy." levi said as she finished tying her shoes. she jumped up and clapped her hands.

"thank you baby, so do you. are you ready?" you asked the almost five year old.

"yup. is he here yet?" she asked excitedly, clutching her hands on the window besides the door to look outside.

"i think i just heard his car pull up.." you replied.

"oh oh, mommy! mommy, he's here!" levi squealed as she pressed her tiny nose against the window. her small feet tapping nervously against the floor, causing you to chuckle.

you stood behind her, gently laying your hands on her shoulders as shawn walked up to your front door. he smiled widely as he saw the grinning little girl standing behind the window.
he walked up to the window, crunched down and pressed his index finger on her nose. she giggled loudly as she quickly turned to the door, went on her tiptoes and opened it for the handsome man behind it. they always did that, it was kind of their ritual.

"shawn!" she greeted him by throwing herself into his arms. he chuckled as he picked her up and stepped inside.

"hi young lady, how are we today?" he asked as he gently stroked over her curly hair.

"eh, mommy put too much milk in my cereal today!" she shrugged as she wiggled out of his touch and wrinkled her nose.

shawn gasped, "how could you?" he turned to you as he laughed.

"i know right?" you joined and giggled.

"come here," he pouted as he opened his arms.

you stepped into his embrace and let your body fell slightly back so you could properly see him.

"hi," he grinned, leaning in to meet you in a sweet kiss.

"hi," you replied as you parted.

as he was about to say something, levi tugged at your dress and huffed.

"mommy, can we go? i'm bored."

you playfully rolled your eyes before leading the three of you outside and picking up levi's little bicycle.
