Momma's boy 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
"Johnny, don't you want to go play?" James smiled and pat the little one's shoulder.
John briefly looked at him, then hid his face in George's shirt again.
"We've been awfully shy since we got up," George explained as he rubbed Johnny's back. "I don't think we'll play much today."
"Mama's lap is the best, huh?" James laughed and smoothed out Johnny's hair. "That's okay. You know," he turned to George, "One time I had to carry Ned around all day. The smallest I ever saw him... Wouldn't walk at all and cried when I placed him down anywhere. My back was killing me the day after, I couldn't get up from bed on my own!"
George nodded thoughtfully. "We've had such days before... But I try to limit how much I carry him. Mostly just sit or lay down with him... lots of cuddles... He loves those." He looked down at the little one nuzzling his chest and smiled. "Anything for such an adorable little one."
Johnny raised his head to look at George, eyes wide open.
"Adorable little one," George repeated with a grin and pinched Johnny's cheek.
"So very adorable," James joined in.
Johnny whined under the praise and hid in George's shirt again.
"Yes you are!" he laughed and pulled Johnny even closer. "The most," he kissed his hair, "Adorable," kissed him again, "Baby," again, "In the world."
John giggled and squirmed in George's lap, gently kicking his legs.
"Aww... Well, if you need anything, just call me over. Or Francis."
"Yes, thank you. We're good for now, we'll just be watching, hm?"
Johnny hummed.
"Alright." James rubbed the little one's shoulder one more time, then got up.
Ned and Harry were waiting for him on the carpet. Ned had two toy horses in his hands and when James sat down, he placed one in James' lap.
"Johnny won't play today, he's shy, okay?"
Harry nodded. "Okay."
Ned stared at him for a moment, then leaned back to look at Johnny. Suddenly he grabbed a lamb from the pile of animal figurines on the carpet beside him and got up.
James watched him as he waddled all the way to George and Johnny on the sofa. He knelt next to them and mumbled something James couldn't hear from so far away. Then he pat Johnny's hair and got up.
He sat back down next to James, now without the lamb.
"I'm the farmer!" Harry cheered and scooted closer to them. "We're going to a show, you have to get ready and pretty!"
Ned nodded and began brushing his toy horse's mane.
