(hmm..... This is sooo hard when I don't have kids! I'm just winging it... A month. Maybe?)

Kasumi stretched and rubbed her eyes, bored a tired. Tired because having a child was more taxing then she had ever thought possible. They had moved into a bigger house. Ayumi was a live-in caretaker, Ran a anbu under Gaara now, to be closer to his family. Temari and Kankuro were the same and Kasumi was now a secretary to Gaara and most important, mother to Kai.

Kasumi walked into the Room Gaara, Kai, and her shared to check on Kai. It was around noon. Kasumi would get Kai and go fix lunch for everyone.

Hmm...maybe a month to a year? You pick)

(Sure. Hrm.... When to?)

Gaara slowly walked into the living room, kai held tight to him. "Kasumi wants you to hold him. I guess she doesn't trust me" he chuckled weakly and handed the little tiny body to his father in law


Wanna timeskip forward?)

Kasumi sighed and stepped out of the bathroom to see how Gaara and Kai were fairing on the way to the living room.

Gaara picked up Kai gently and carefully brought him out to the living room. He was afraid that if he went to fast then he would drop Kai. He bit his lip and shook his head, not wanting to ever think about that

Kasumi nodded and walked to the bathroom, still not entirely sure how to stop worrying about Kai.

Gaara chuckled and sat up. "I can bring him. Just go get into the shower and I'll be in soon"

Kasumi nodded. "Okay, let me go give Kai to Dad."
