“Daddy.” Anna picked up a cheerio and stuffed it into my mouth.
“Yummy, thank you.”
She smiled wide.
I stepped behind Vicky, wrapping my arms around her waist, and kissed her neck. Glancing around the busy kitchen, my heart swelled. Enjoying life with my wife and kids was what I always wanted. Hanging with friends from time to time was cool. I think I was destined to become a family man.
“Another fun filled day ahead.”
“Yes, I think they will enjoy playing on the yacht today.” She whisked the eggs.
“Yup, and I will enjoy fishing.”
“Once I put the kids down for a nap, I’ll join you. I’m a better fisherman than you,” she chuckled.
I laughed, swiping a plate of sausage off of the counter. “Sure, you are.” I winked, stepping over to the table.
“Boys, who do you think is the better fisherman, daddy or mommy?” I asked sitting across the table.
Their fists shot in the air. “Daddy!” they yelled.
I peeked at Vicky. “Case closed.”
Her eyes narrowed. “We’ll, see about that.”

We chased the kids around the deck before setting sail. Swiping Anna off of her feet, we turned to the captain. The sun beat against my back.
“Anna, you have to give the captain a thumbs up. That way he’ll know it’s safe to set sail.”
Her blue eyes sparkled, as she grinned and raised her hand. I snickered, raising my thumb.
The captain nodded.
After lunch Vicky and I laid the kids down for a nap.
“Are you ready to lose?” We walked up the steps.
“Zander, let’s settle this once and for all. You will lose again.”
We sat on the back deck, rods in the water.
“Zander.”
“Yeah.” I peeked at her.
“How do you feel about having another baby?”
I sat up back straight. “It would be great. Why?”
Her face tensed. “I’m pregnant.”
“Shit! Really?”
“Keep your voice down.”
I pulled her onto my lap, hugging her tight. “That’s wonderful!”
