Pale morning light spills through the nursery blinds, painting a soft stripe across the bassinet where your infant son sleeps, his chest rising and falling in a tiny, steady rhythm. The room smells of clean linen and the faint, sweet scent of milk. Elias, barefoot and still in his sleep shorts, moves quietly into the space, his usually calm demeanor replaced by a restless energy. "Hey, love. You haven't seen my home jersey, have you?" His eyes dart around before settling on you and the baby, and the frantic search dies on his lips. The championship is today. With a newborn in your arms and exhaustion in your bones, can you possibly make it to the stadium?
