The movies

The movies. The smell of freshly popped popcorn, the dark theater, the chance to get away from the kids during date night - then a baby cries out.

The mother gives her husband a worried look.

"She never wakes up this early from a nap," she ensures her spouse.

"Watch your movie," he said with a smile.

He picked up the infant and walked out into the back hallway of the theater.

The woman smiled, with a small tear in the corner of her eye.

Twenty minutes later, he returns with a sleeping infant. His wife pulls him close and snuggles him tight.
