Christmas morning she showered and was dressed in a green sweater and slacks before Michael stirred. âMerry Christmas, love,â she said as she picked him up and nuzzled him. He smelled of baby powder and he clutched her shoulder while she carried him.When she had Michael dressed in his red Santa suit, she left her suite. Nickâs door stood open and he appeared. âMerry Christmas,â he said, smiling at her.
Casually dressed in a navy sweater and chinos, he looked dangerous, sexy, appealing.
âMerry Christmas, Nick,â she said as he walked up to her to kiss her lightly.
âMerry Christmas to you,â she said.
âGood morning, Michael,â Nick said, and the baby smiled at him.
âLook at you, getting a smile first thing. He barely knows you.â
âHe knows Iâm his uncle,â Nick said. âAnd heâs glad to see me, just as I am glad to see you both. Sleep well?â
âOf course,â she answered.
âLetâs do Christmas. Dad canât wait to give Michael a present. I donât think he ever got excited over either Bart or me on Christmas morning.â
âHe might have when you were very young,â she said.
âWe were in his way when he was young. Now, heâs changed. His illness has turned him into a different man. Many of those driving goals he had are gone and the people around him get his full attention.â
âMichael is probably hungry. Heâs a very good baby, but I donât want to keep him waiting.â
In the kitchen Vanessa waited. As soon as she saw them, she came to take Michael from Grace. âHow adorable he is,â she said, smiling at Michael. âMichael is happy all the time. Iâll feed him and you can eat your breakfast. Mr. Rafford and Megan are in the great room. Theyâve already eaten and have coffee waiting for you in there.â
Grace handed over Michael and joined Nick at the table. The cook brought plates of eggs and toast. After they finished, they joined Eli and Megan by the Christmas tree. Little toys filled Michaelâs stocking and his toys sat at the foot of the tree.
âSanta has been here,â Eli said with twinkling eyes. His color was better and he looked stronger than when Grace had met him, causing her to wonder how big an influence Michael was in his life.
Grace left to get her cameras. When she returned, she saw that Eli also had a camcorder and a camera ready, and she laughed. âI think this baby is going to be a celebrity this morning and heâll have no idea whatâs going on. Itâll be a thoroughly documented first Christmas.â
Nick smiled. âDad wants every minute caught. Weâll start with Michael though I know he canât open anything.â
âNo, he would promptly put the wrappings in his mouth.â As Vanessa handed her the baby, Grace said, âIâll put him on the floor and letâs see if he gets one of his toys first.â She set Michael down and picked up her own camcorder. He promptly crawled to a transparent ball filled with plastic butterflies and glittering spheres that played tunes when he rolled it around.
