The front door opened, and my beautiful wife stepped out, her face lighting up when she saw me. Setting the guitar aside, I opened my arms, wanting to feel her in them. She slid onto my lap, snuggling close. We were silent for a long moment while we watched Jacob play, listening to his giggles float across the yard.
“I spoke to Paige a little bit ago. She, Eric, and the kids are planning on coming to stay with us for Christmas.”
I smiled, rubbing my chin against the top of her head. “Sounds good. We have more than enough room.”
“For now,” she whispered, and I heard the slight tremor in her voice.
I frowned. Placing a finger under her chin, I tilted her head up to meet her gaze. “What do you mean? Is everything okay, baby?”
“Everything is more than okay, my love.” Those captivating eyes were filled with love as she took my hand and placed it over her stomach. “Everything is perfect.”
I swallowed hard as I realized what she was trying to tell me, wondering how I was so lucky to live the life I was now living. Placing a gentle kiss on her lips, I said, “I love you so damn much, Mrs. Scott.”
Everly wrapped her arms around my neck whispering against my lips, “I love you too.”
