June.
It is now a few days before Danny and Jessica's anniversary. Today Danny has called for the first time in three weeks.
"I'm sorry for the way I acted. I'm gonna be there in a couple hours. Would you and the kids like to have dinner with me?"
"Danny, I don't know.."
"Please? I miss you guys. I just want to see you."
"Fine." Jessica sighs.
"Thank you! I'll call you when I'm closer."
"Alright. Be carful."
"I will. Bye!"
Jessica hung up just as Sam rang the doorbell.
"Hey!" Jessica smiles and gives him a hug.
Sam kisses her cheek and rubs her back.
"I have a surprise for you!"
"For me?!"
"Yep! You and I are going to take a class!"
"Haha! A class? What kind of class?"
"We're going to learn sign language!"
Since Theodore is unable to wear his hearing aids in water or at night, or whenever he just chooses to pull them off, Sam wanted to surprise Jessica with sign language classes.
Jessica looked at him with tears in her eyes.
"Sammy! What?!"
"Surprise!" He chuckles.
"You've done enough, dude!" Jessica laughs through her tears.
Sam laughs.
"No, we need this! We need to be able to communicate with him. Autumn is going too. I figured we could teach Juju as we teach Theo."
"Sam!" Jessica wraps her arms around him and lifts her legs.
Sam chuckles then makes a joke.
"I think I'll be good at this. You remember how great I was with my hands!"
"Samuel!" Jessica pats his arm and laughs.
"But yes, I do!" She smirks then immediately calls Autumn.
"Auttie, your daddy's here!"
"I'm coming!"
"So what are your plans for tonight? Want to join Autumn, Landon and I?"
"Aw, that sounds fun but the babies and I are meeting Danny for dinner." Jessica pouts.
"Oh.. fun!"
"Yeah.. But thank you for asking!"
"No problem! Does he know about-"
"Nope! He has no idea he even has them. He hasn't called in weeks. We'll see what he says."
"It's what's best for his son, you think he'd want this."
"I don't know." Jessica shrugs.
"I don't understand him."
Jessica then picks Theodore up and kisses his cheeks. "Teddy, can you show Sam how we copy mommy? Say, OOOOO!"
"Oooooo!" Theodore copies his mother.
"Good boy!"
"He buddy, that was awesome! He's doing so well, Jess!"
"He really is! Thank you so much. I know I thank you every time I see you, but I have to! This was the most incredible gift ever!"
"No problem, Jess!"
