After finishing up the paperwork and getting settled into the hospital room, Elijah came in with the nurse to give Jenna a basic check-up. "Way to go!"

Elijah ruffled Jenna's hair, giving her a big thumbs up in praise.

"Have we been taking our medicine like a champ, Jenna?"

"Yes!" Jenna nodded obediently, cuddling into Sherilyn's embrace with a voice as sweet as a bell.

"Listening to Mommy, aren't you?"

"Is Jenna being amazing?"

Elijah's eyes crinkled with a smile as he pulled a magic wand from his pocket. "Guess what this is?"

"Wow!" Jenna's eyes sparkled. "For me?"

"Yes," Elijah chuckled, nodding. "But I can't give it to you just yet. You have to be super cooperative during the check-up today if you want it." The check-up included drawing blood and taking various scans.

For a three-year-old, it was no small feat.

"I will!" Jenna nodded confidently. "I'll do really well!"

"Good girl!"

Elijah glanced at Sherilyn. "The nurse will be with you throughout. If Jenna feels unwell at any point, let me know right away."

"Thank you so much."
