Mister Landlord - Mister Yum

“Baby, I missed you so much,” I cry holding him as tight as I can. He wraps his arms around me and squeezes me just like how he used to when he was little. I am now only realizing that my little boy is all grown up. When he stands to his full height and my toes barely touch the ground, but he will always be my sweet baby.

“I missed you too, Ma.” I sniffle and hold him for a few more seconds then pull back.

“Okay, baby let’s surprise the shit out of your dad.” He chuckles.

“Let’s do it.” I send Cole a text to send his father out here to get something because I want Beau to be able to see Dillon before everyone else does. I hear the thud of boots and stand to the side turning on my camera.

“Chérie what are you doing out here? Are you ready for round two?” Our son makes a gagging noise and Beau looks away from me over to our son. His mouth drops open. Oh my God! I am going to have to edit this video before I post it online. My husband, the man who has cried less than ten times in all of the years we’ve been together, wells up with tears. He makes it to our son in no time flat, giving him a crushing hug.

“Hey Pops,” Dillion says.

“Oh, God. This is an amazing present. How long are you here for?”

“Just for the weekend but I couldn’t miss my old man’s birthday.” Beau clears his throat and slaps Dillon’s back before stepping back. I put down my phone and walk over to them putting my arms around them both.

“How about we go see everyone else?” They both chuckle and nod their heads. After a few minutes of high-pitched squeals and back slaps everyone settles into a nice rhythm. I look out at everyone that I love and can’t help being in wonder of how amazing my life is. All because of the man I fell in love with at first sight. Beau comes up beside me and pulls me to his side.

“Thank you for the wonderful life you have created with me, chérie.” I snuggle into his side and kiss his chest. “Thanks for loving me, sweetheart.”

Nothing is better than this.
