"I don't hate auto, I just prefer manual." Holden said as he closed the door. "Purple is your color." He said with a wink. "I'm surprised I haven't been tackled yet." He said as he heard Amanda's footsteps. "I spoke to soon." He said turning to where he heard her coming from. "Hey kid." He said as he picked her up before she could tackle him.

"Hey not fair." Amanda said with a pout.
He smiled, "Oh is it really?" He asked as he tickled her belly.
Hahaha Ya!" She said in between laughs.
Holden laughed as he put her down, "In a few days you are gonna be in school." He said with a smile.
"Why?" She asked.
"Because you need to get an education." He said rubbing her head. "Are you hungry? What do you want for supper?" He asked as he kneeled down.
"Umm pizza." Amanda said rocking on her heels.
"Pizza it is, now I have to go make a few calls, then I will call for the pizza, ok?" He asked with a smile.
"Ok." She said running back to Alicia.

He smiled as he stood back up, "Is the paperwork still in your car or in the study?" Holden asked putting his hand on the door handle.
