“I really miss Mom…Ahh, Daddy, let go of me!”

Daniel was showering Brittany with kisses when, mid-sentence, Isaac scooped him up. “Enough smooching, let go of your mom!”

Over the past few months, Daniel had grown quite a bit, but he was still no match for the absolute force that was his father.

Brittany never expected Isaac to be jealous of his own son. She shot him a look that clearly said, “Give it a rest.”
