Redhawk Caldera the quiet child

Eljay did not break eye contact, continuing to gaze up at his father. After a moment, his vision seemed to go out of focus -- his expression shifted into one of happy confusion and Elwood bit his lip to keep from laughing. He moved his face closer to the boy's, until their noses touched gently; he watched the child for a reaction, looking to see if he was able to maintain eye contact (which would cause his eyes to cross in the process).

He then leaned back and gestured towards the sleeping Finley; she was curled up nearby, catching up on some much-needed rest. Elwood hated that she was missing this moment in their baby's life, but she would be happy to see Elwood Jr's beautiful eyes when she awoke. "Look, there's Mommy," he said, motioning with his paw towards Finley in an attempt to draw the puppy's gaze in that direction.
