Chapter 528

Isaac popped open Daniel’s bedroom door. Daniel decked out in dinosaur pajamas and looked surprised as he asked, “Dad, what are you doing here?”

Gazing at the innocent little face, Isaac was a bit down in the dumps.

“Granny Emily wanted to hit the sack early tonight, so I’m on bath duty.”

Daniel looked puzzled and asked, “Dad, do you even know how to do that?”

Isaac squatted down and pointed to the tub. “Hop in.”

Daniel quickly stripped off his pajamas and climbed into the tub. His arms were wrapped around a rubber duck, his eyes sparkling.
