"Aoi, please stay away from the roses!"

The little girl stopped by my voice

Ran back towards me and into arms.

"Sorry, Momma." She smiled and handed me a single daisy.

"Fuyu, Aoi! They foods ready, come back over here."

Alexis called from a blanket he had laid on the grass.

Our baby Luciel sat on his lap.

Giggling at the butterflies that land on the blanket.

I hold Aoi's hand as we made our way over to them.

"I love you Fuyu," Alexis says as he kisses me slowly before placing the food out.

"I love you too."

I say as I lay against his side and hold our children to us as the sun shines down on us.

And the family that we made ourselves.

It was broken but it was ours.

We'd been through many hardships.

And would definitely be through more in the future.

But now we had each other.

And that's what mattered.
