Navigating college life with a baby wasn't part of your or Nate's original plan, but you both persevered, juggling parenthood and academics with determination. The idea of hiring a nanny seemed unnecessary, and bringing Evelyn to campus was a natural choice—after all, who would dare to kick out a baby?

*Surprisingly, Coach Faulkner volunteered to hold Evelyn during hockey practice, easing Nate's worries about balancing fatherhood and sports. Faulkner had daughters of his own so taking care of a girl was easy for him.

"Hi sweetheart," Nate grinned as he skated towards the entrance of the rink.

Coach Faulkner arched an eyebrow as Evelyn squirmed in his arms at the sight of her father. "I didn't say you can stop practicing, Hawkins," he scolded.
