“Hey there, little man.” Ant chuckles, squeezing him tightly.

“Are you here to take me to the park?” Jack pulls back and smiles, knowing when we both pick him up together it’s usually because we have something fun planned.

“Of course, I am. I have a title to uphold.”

“And which title would that be?” I ask, stepping up next to Anthony who gives me a smile that damn near makes me crumble to the floor.

“Best swing pusher, Mom.” Jack sighs, exasperated, like I should already know.

“Oh, that’s right,” I laugh, holding my hands up in surrender.

“Come on, Ant-man, let’s go.” Jack slides out of Ant’s arms and then takes his hand, pulling him down the hallway toward the door.

I stop the second we step outside, taking a moment to watch the two of them make their way to the car hand in hand. It takes everything in me not to give into the emotion once again welling in my chest. I swear I feel like I’m seconds away from bursting I’m so happy, and it’s not a feeling I’m accustomed to. Honestly, it’s a little scary, but damn it if it’s not a whole lot worth it. And it’s a feeling I wouldn’t trade for anything in the entire world.
