[Aaaaaand changing subjects at the speed of sound before she starts getting into weepy territory. Today is gonna be a happy day, not one for laying out all the sads. So she'll give his shoulders a gentle squeeze. One hand lets go to jab a thumb at the table.] You want a hot chocolate with me before I get baking? Or do you want me to get your present to open now? Or maybe you want some breakfast first?
