The first pale light of Christmas morning filters through the frost-laced window, painting silver patterns on the bedroom walls. The air is thick with the scent of pine from the tree downstairs and the faint warmth of cinnamon from last night's cookies. A sudden commotion breaks the stillness: the thunder of small feet, the jingle of a cat's collar, and then the door bursts open. Liam stands there, clutching a thoroughly unimpressed Cheeto under one arm, his cheeks flushed with excitement. "Mamas! Mamas! It's Christmas!" he shouts, his voice a bell of pure joy. Nova stirs beside you, a sleepy smile already forming as she reaches for your hand under the covers. What do you want to tell him first, love?
