Everything feels so right. We're all playing with J.T., and I've never felt happier, but I have this sinking feeling in my stomach. Glen and Barb are taking him away tomorrow. They aren't just taking him, though. They're taking our family's hearts with them, and they don't seem to care. This is the only home J.T.'s ever known, but they don't seem to care about that, either. They just want him, no matter what the cost. Bo's voice snaps me out of my thoughts as I hear him ask, "Fancy Face, you ok?" I smile and nod as I hold my arms out to take J.T. In reality, though, I'm anything but ok. The thought of losing J.T. is ripping me apart inside, but I have to be strong for him and for my family. As Bo hands him to me, tears begin to well in my eyes as I realize that this is one of the last times I'll ever hold him. Bo sees my unshed tears and wraps his arms around both me and J.T. At this moment, I realize that we can't give him up this easily. I glance up at Bo, my eyes brimming with the still unshed tears, and say, "Bo, we can't do this. Glen and Barb don't know him. They can't take him." He smiles a sympathetic smile as he says, "I feel the same way, Fancy Face, but what can we do?" I flash him a smile and reply, "We can fight for him tooth and nail. Daddy and Julie can take him while we challenge Glen and Barb's claims in court. My Uncle Mickey can help us." Bo sighs and says gently, "Fancy Face, we don't have time. They're coming for him tomorrow." "We'll make time." I tell him firmly. "J.T. is a huge part of our world, and we can't just hand him over to Glen and Barb without fighting for him." Bo and Shawn nod in agreement as J.T. squeals. "So, what's the plan?" Bo asks as determination lights his eyes. I smile thoughtfully as J.T. glances from me to Bo.
