"good morning" sam whispered as he kissed addison awake.
"mmm, morning" she mumbled tiredly, she cuddled into his body and he kissed the top of her hair, holding her close "i'm too warm to get up" she yawned.
"well our boy is going to be up any minute wanting his birthday presents" sam said with a soft laugh.
"i can't believe he's 5" addison sighed "this time 5 years ago, i was holding him sam, this tiny little, newborn, he was so perfect, he still is, i just, i'm so happy we made him, aren't you?"
"of course i am babe" sam smiled softly "and i can't wait to make all of these new memories with him"
"y'know, he loves you more than me now right?" addison laughed, looking up at him "it's daddy this and daddy that all the time"
"you are the most amazing mom" sam whispered, stroking her cheek gently "he's who he is because of you, i still wish i could have held him when he was a baby, i wish i could've been there for that, but now, now it doesn't matter, he's turning into a little man before our eyes and i love it, i love you"
"i know" addison smiled, she straddled his body and kissed him firmly on the lips, sam moaned a little and they shared a deeper kiss.
"i hear footsteps" sam mumbled against her mouth, addison sighed and climbed off him just in time for her bedroom door to swing open.
"it's my birthday!" carson said loudly.
"happy birthday honey" addison laughed softly "come here my big boy" she opened her arms and carson jumped up onto the bed, cuddling against her.
"can i open my presents now?" carson asked impatiently.
"why don't we do pancakes and then presents" sam suggested "cuz i don't know about you but my stomach is grumbling"
"can we have chocolate chips in them?" carson asked "and can we make smiley faces on them?"
"of course we can buddy, whatever you want, happy birthday son" sam smiled, kissing carson's forehead gently.
"thanks daddy" carson mumbled "i'm glad you're here today, you've never been at my birthday before"
"i know little man but i promise i'll be here every year now"
"i know" carson smiled up at him "please can we have pancakes now?"
"come on son" sam laughed, he climbed out of bed and picked carson up, throwing him over his shoulder, carson giggled loudly as sam carried him out of the room, addison laughed softly and climbed out of bed, putting on her slippers and robe before heading downstairs.

"i wonder who that is" addison yawned as she took a sip of her coffee, hearing a knock at the door.
"ok, don't be mad but, i'm pretty sure it's my mother"
"what?" she asked with a raised eye
ow "you didn't think to tell me? sam i'm not even dressed! god you are such a stupid man sometimes…." she continued to grumble all the way to her bedroom.
"uh-oh" carson laughed to himself "daddy i think you made mommy mad"
