| "Alright." Griffith gave a little smile as he watched Harlow. It almost felt like just yesterday Harlow was toddling after him trying to help out with tasks just like this, just pleased and all grins whenever he was around his father. "When did you get so big?" He asked quietly. |

| Harlow glanced when he heard the slight noise. "Huh?" he asked, reaching up to turn up the volume on his hearing aid a bit. |

| "Mm, nothing. If you could carry those down to the laundry room, I can get breakfast started. I'll make whatever you want." Griffith nodded with a little smile as he continued to admire his baby boy. |

| "Chocolate pancakes?" Harlow asked with a hopeful little grin, putting the clothes in the basket and then picked that up. |

| "You know, your mom would kill me if we made that without her, but it'll just stay between us, right?" Griff smirked. |

| Harlow grinned a little. "Yeah, please. Or we can put some up for her for later." |

| "Momma would like that." Griffith nodded. "I'll get that started. Get the rest of the laundry to the wash and we'll do that today, okay?" |

| "Kay." Harlow nodded and went to hurry off down to the laundry room. "Don't forget a smoothie too!" |

Griffith clicked his tongue and chuckled as he signed "spoiled" at Harlow. Nonetheless, he went ahead and proceeded to hobble down the hallway, the stairs, and then into the kitchen.
Next to the living room, the kitchen and dining area was probably where the family spent most of their time, much like in Griffith's youth. Harper had taught herself to cook all of his mother's old recipes, and like Mack, Griffith learned to coax and cherish all the laughter and happiness at the dinner table. Though Harper cooked most of the time, Griffith knew how to make a few things, like his kids' favorite pancakes, all of them demanding very different types. He also knew how to make mean smoothies, which had been his and Harlow's "thing" ever since he was a lillin. He would often make himself smoothies for post-workout, but Harlow wasn't very old when he began demanding that Griffith's treat be shared. In fact, besides the typical "Mom", "Dad", and the signage for his siblings, one of the earlier words Harlow established in his sign vocabulary was smoothie.
He leaned heavier on the counter than usual as he whipped up Harlow's requested breakfast and before too long he haphazardly managed to carry it out to the dining room table without dropping it or stumbling. |

| Harlow trotted back from the laundry room to the dining room, pushing his hair out of his face, which had fallen flat due to him not having messed with it yet. He peered around and went over to help him quickly. |

| "I'm okay, I'm okay. Go sit down." Griffith insisted as he tried to wave Harlow towards the table. |

| "But... Dad..." Harlow frowned, brows furrowing. "Let me help carry something." |

| "I'm okay, Handsome. Just sit down, alright?" Griffith insisted still, nodding with a little grin. |

| Harlow looked anxious still but moved to go sit down, not wanting to get in Griffith's way either. |

Griffith hauled everything to the table, managing to get everything set up in front of Harlow before taking a seat himself, fighting back a slight wince as he went down in the seat.
"Made you your favorite smoothie." He gestured to the cup before reaching down to try and subtly touch at his knee where it ached. |
