Jane sleeps on the way back to her place, and instead of waking her, Liam takes her in his arms, while Claire follows close behind. "Lee-em, is Momma gonna be alright?"
"She'll be okay sweetie. Right now your Mommy needs to sleep, so its up to the two of us to be as quiet as we can while she does, okay?"
Claire nods. "Otay Lee-em."
"What do you say to drawing your Mom some pictures, or having a tea party or something?"
"Would you come to the party?" Claire looks up at Liam with her big blue eyes.
Liam swallows and nods. Why not? He'd done it with his nieces before. Why would this be any different? "You bet, Princess." He tucks Jane into bed, and then proceeds to head to Claire's room.
Before too long Claire has her little tea party set up, and gets Liam to sit on one of the little chairs. She pretends to pour the tea, and when she's done, Liam goes to pick up his cup to pretend to drink out of it. "No silly, you do it like dis!"
