“You’re Mommy’s cute baby, aren’t you?” I coo “So adorable and you look just like Mommy too”

Baby Georgie blinks and etically, looking up with big blue eyes I press another kiss to his forehead, but inside ie doesn’t really look like me much Instead, he looks just like his father, Patrick Lancaster
