The House on Honeysuckle Lane (40 page)

“My, gosh, that child has lungs!” Andie declared.
Anna Maria grinned at Daniel. “Just like his daddy.”
“I'll take him for a while, Mom,” Sophia offered.
“No, I want him,” Marco protested. “You held him last time.”
“Marco's turn,” Daniel said with a smile. “There's plenty of baby to go around.”
“He is adorably chubby,” Rumi said. “I love chubby babies!”
Once Marco was settled in a chair with his little brother firmly in his arms, Daniel went over to the food table to grab another of Morgan's now famous steak tartar appetizers. Emma joined him there and took one of her own.
“So,” Emma said, “I guess Marco doesn't think babies are boring anymore.”
“He and Sophia never stop arguing over who's going to hold him or feed him or help with his bath.” Daniel shook his head. “Would I be jinxing things to say I have the perfect family?”
“No,” Emma told him, linking her arm in his. “You wouldn't.”
