The next few weeks flew by as Jasper became even more entwined in our lives. He was staying over more, and Eli was ecstatic to have his father around. Jasper had taken over one side of my closet; his grooming supplies had their own space in my bathroom. It was seamless.

I placed the dinner I had prepared on the table and called them to the dining room. “Guys, supper.” I yell out as I grab some drinks from the refrigerator.

“Coming.” Eli yells out before running into the bathroom. I can hear him talking to his dad but can’t hear what they are saying as they wash their hands. I shake my head and wash my hands in the sink.

Eli and Jasper sit down at the table as I dry my hands.

“This looks great,” Jasper says, smiling up at me.

“Yeah, mom this looks yummy.” Eli says watching Jasper closely, mimicking his movements.

I can’t help but smile at them as I sit down and start dishing out food onto Eli’s plate.
