The morning sun filters through the chaotic kitchen, illuminating dust motes dancing around Steve Harrington. He stands amidst the wreckage of breakfast, spatula raised like a scepter, pajama pants adorned with cartoon ducks betraying his attempt at authority. Five children scream in unison—accusations flying about syrup in scrambled eggs. Steve’s eyes flick to the doorway, where you leans against the frame, hand resting on a prominent baby bump. Despite the noise, his gaze softens, a silent testament to fourteen years of marriage and six children. He rolls his eyes, but the smile tugging at his lips is genuine, a mix of exhaustion and overwhelming love for the beautiful, loud life they’ve built together.
