Valentine Dinner (Photostory)

 It's still Valentine's Day.  Danielle and the boys have been out all day with Leslie, taking care of business.  Part of Rod's Valentine's gift to Danielle is a special dinner, which he is prepping for.

Rod is fixing one of Danielle's favorite, seafood.  He's decided on a seafood boil with lobster, crab, and shrimp.  And you can't have a seafood boil without corn and potatoes.

Danielle and the boys have returned.
"Oh look, your dad bought a new welcome mat."  (Danielle)
"What's a welcome mat?"  (Julian)
"It's mainly to wipe you feet, so you don't track dirt in the house.  Why don't you give it a try?"  (Danielle)
"Okay, but can we hurry.  I have to go to the bathroom."  (Julian)

"Hi honey.  We're home."  (Danielle)

"Well hello family."  (Rod)
"Hi dad!"  (Julian, as he runs upstairs to the bathroom)

Rod, removes the food from the sink so he could wash his hands and go say hi to his wife.
"So how was your day?"  (Rod)
"Productive, but tiring."  (Danielle)

"Well let me help you with that."  (Rod)

Rod grabs her scarf and pulls her closer.
"I thought you were helping me get undressed."  (Danielle)
"Oh believe me, that will come much later."  (Rod)


"I hope you're hungry.  I have a wonderful dinner planned for you."  (Rod)
"I'm famished."  (Danielle in her sexy voice)
Danielle can feel that Rod is getting more excited by the minute.
"I'm going to step away now, or we will have to skip dinner and go straight to dessert."  (Rod)

Rod goes to check on the boys.
"Uh, oh.  Man down."  (Rod)

Jacob has fallen asleep.  Poor kid didn't even take the time to lay down. 

"Awww, my poor baby was exhausted.  He didn't get his nap today.  I'll take him upstairs and put him down."  (Danielle)

"Send Julian down here.  I want to show him something."  (Rod)

"Oh there you are.  Come here, son.  I want to show you something."  (Rod)

"What is it?"  (Julian)
"There are two lobsters there and one crab."  (Rod)
"Look, dad, it's moving!"  (Julian)
"Yes, they are still alive."  (Rod)

After show and tell, Rod goes to start working on the chicken he's fixing for the boys.  He shoots the breeze with Julian in the process.

Danielle returns after taking a quick shower and changing into something a little more comfortable.  It feels good to see her man in the kitchen fixing dinner and chatting with her son.

"Need any help?"  (Danielle)

"No, honey. Why don't you just have a seat and rest.  We men folk got this covered.  Would you like something to drink?"  (Rod)
"I wouldn't mind having a cup of hot tea."  (Danielle)
"Coming right up."  (Rod)

    1. Tinisha - Thanks. Maybe you should have him start reading these type stories. Maybe he would take a hint. If he's like most men, that hint would go right over his head.

    1. Doll Crazy - They are out there, but they are few and far between. I have to admit from the time I was 18, every man I've dated seriously, except one or two, were excellent cooks and cooked all the time. It never left room for me to perfect my cooking skills. I'm trying to rectify that now.

    1. Rosemary - Thanks. I have seen a lot of kids that have passed out in the most unusual ways.

      Danielle's dress is from one of the older Artsy Fashionista doll.

  7. My husband and I take turns cooking. I must admit I loved how Rod took Danielle's scarf and pulled her closer to him. Then he gently touched her hair as he leaned in for a manly kiss and embrace. I would make a grown folks comment but I will refrain...... :)

  11. Sigh. I just LOVE this family. They're a joy to read about. Danielle and Rod; Julian and Jacob. Even Melanie and Nicole. Rod is a super role model for the boys as well as a great husband for Danielle. Danielle is the best wife for Rod. They're good and realistic. Thanks for sharing their stories with us.
