    "Jack, can you put the angel on the tree for me?" Jackie asked.

    "Of course, Kid."

    It had been six weeks since Arabella's birth. Since then, Jack and Jackie had moved into the house beside Rose's and Joe's, Jack and Jackie's divorce had been rescinded, and Christmas Eve had come. "Isn't our angel pretty?" Jackie asked Harrison, who she was holding on her hip.

    Harrison made some noise, "Does that mean you think she's pretty? I think it does! I think it does!" Jackie cooed.

    Jack picked Arabella up from her bassinet as she began to fuss, "Shh, Daddy's got you, sweetie."

    "Jack, can you watch the kids while I go get dressed for church?"

    "Sure, put Harrison on his play mat." Jackie placed their son on his play mat and Jack sat down on the floor next to him while holding Arabella. After Jackie dressed in a deep red tweed dress for church, she took Harrison upstairs to dress him a little baby suit. Then she dressed Arabella in a red dress with white stockings while Jack put on his suit.
