Jamie was cuddled up on the couch watching Tom and Jerry with Robbie, while Lizzie was cooking brunch for them all. The boy was holding his penguin toy named JJ along with Boo as Robbie had an arm around him.

As the boys sat on the couch in comfortable silence, Jamie couldn't help but look over towards the kitchen to see Lizzie off in her own world cooking. The boy didn't seem to understand why she looked calm, he always seemed to find it really boring when he watches his father do it. The toddler scrunched his face up before he soon decided to go ahead get up from the couch. Robbie looked at his son with a raised brow "what you doing there bud?" He asked his son. "See what Wizzie doin." He stated as he soon kept walking towards the kitchen. Robbie chuckled before he decided to continue watching the old cartoon knowing his child will be back soon.

As Jamie made it to the kitchen he looked at Lizzie who was swaying around as she hummed to herself. The boy didn't want to bother her but he soon tilted his head as he watched her move around as if she knew the whole kitchen. "Wizzie?" Jamie called out as he looked at her. The boy noticed how she didn't seem to look at him, he then did a huff before he tried again. "Wizzie!" He called out again, but yet again it was no use. So the boy scrunched his face up before he blurted out something which made Robbie and Lizzie both look at the boy with shocked looks. "Mama!" Jamie yelled out. The boy giggled before he soon seen Robbie looking over at him with wide eyes long with Lizzie. He soon felt himself grow embarrassed as if he did something wrong "I-I sowwy! I d-didn't mean t-to sway dat!..." he blurted out before he soon decided to go ahead and run off to his room while slamming the door shut.

Robbie quickly got up and soon looked over at Lizzie who seemed to be in shock still. "I'll go talk to him." Robbie said before he started to head to the toddlers room. "No. Let me do it. You stay here and watch the omelets" she stated before she went ahead and started to head back to the rooms. Robbie watched her before he went ahead towards the stove, knowing that she can take care of the situation better than he could ever since he would get turned down by his child.

When Lizzie knocked on the toddlers door he heard the boys voice "go way!" He blurted out. "It's Lizzie pumpkin. Can I come in?" She asked as she looked down at the doorknob. "No daddy?..." Jamie asked as he sounded a bit skeptical. "No daddy" she responded as she knew that Robbie was cooking and watching the omelets. "Can I come in Jay?" She asked again as she put her hand on the doorknob. All she heard was silence before she soon heard a small 'yeah' from the child. As she heard him she simply opened the door and walked in while closing the door behind her.

As Lizzie looked around the small room to find the toddler, she seen how there was a little body imprint under the covers in the bed. She soon did a small smile before she walked over to the bed and sat on the end. She could soon hear the toddler do a little sniffle which soon made her frown. "Baby... can you come out from under there? Please?" She asked. "No..." he said sadly. "Why not?" She soon asked before she placed a hand on the small body. "Y-you m-mad.. and d-daddy mad at me!..." he sobbed out before he cried.

Lizzie furrowed her eyebrows before she uncovered the now crying boy. "Oh baby... I'm not mad and your father isn't mad at you." She said as she quickly picked Jamie up and brought him close to her to rock him. Jamie couldn't help but sob still before he leaned into her to calm down, Lizzie did a little chuckle before she got up with him in her arms to rock him still. "No one's mad at you. We where just shocked that's all Jay." She stated as she rubbed the toddlers back. Jamie sniffled before he looked up at her green eyes to see if she was telling the truth.

As Jamie looked into her calm green eyes, he soon laid against her again. "I s-sowwy.." he said again which made the woman scrunch her face with confusion. "Why are you sorry baby? You didn't do anything wrong." She asked as she looked down at him and soon wiped his tears away. "I sway mama... inwead of wizzie..." he said before he looked at her. Lizzie did a little chuckle before she soon sat down on the bed with him in her lap. "Its okay Jay. You where just trying to call me. You can call me mama if you want to bub. I don't mind." She said before she ran her fingers through Jamie's curly hair. Jamie smiled at her before he soon did a little frown "but I have mama.. she in sky... daddy will get mad at me.." he said sadly before he hid his face against Lizzie. The young woman frowned before she sighed "your daddy won't get mad... plus you're mama will always be you're mama. Even though she is in the sky watching down over you. You are still her baby." Lizzie stated as she rubbed Jamie's back. The boy soon looked up at her before he felt them rock from side to side. "I'll be your mama who helps you too. Just like youre mama would have. I'll help you with anything and play with you and be there with you overall just like your daddy. If you want me to be there with you of course." She stated as she rubbed Jamie's back.
