Love, Your Baby's Boy - Chapter 11
“Okay, Michelangelo, tell me what it is that you want from me.”
Even in writing, Mikey could distinctly sense Sayuri’s exasperation. Nonetheless, he was elated that she had pretty much given in.
When he went to respond to the message, it dawned on him that he was not exactly sure how to answer her question. Of course, he knew what he ultimately wanted from her – a relationship with his grandmother. What he had not thought through was how to even begin.
He started when his door swung open to reveal Leonardo standing in his doorway with his arms crossed over his chest.
Mikey greeted him with a disarming grin from beh

A/N: Since I've already done a one-shot with this same theme three-and-a-half years ago, this is a (very) revised version of my story, "Full Time Job". Enjoy!
Splinter glanced up from his now empty plate to glance at his four beloved children. He shook his head at the family dinner scene that seemed to play out the same nearly every night.
Leonardo's seat was empty. His oldest son had been the first to finish, and the first to be allowed to be dismissed from the table. He knew Leonardo had not been particularly fond of the meal in front of him as it, as always, consisted of nothing but slimy algae and live worms, but Leonardo was always the

“Alright, make a wish,” Splinter announced, holding up his Polaroid camera.
Each boy eagerly blew out the candle protruding from the top of his “cupcake”. The “cupcake” was courtesy of Splinter who shaped worms and algae into a cupcake shape.
Spit went flying as all at once as all four boys blew hard on their candles and once they were all out, they exploded into cheers.
“Now we’re going to go around the table; everyon

Donnie was naturally unamused by Casey's comical entrance. He folded his arms over his chest.
“Okay,” he said, “then who is gonna be the decoys for the rest of us, hm?”
Mikey rubbed the back of his neck.
“Well, I really didn't think we would need them,” he admitted.
Donnie scoffed. “Mikey, don't tell me that you only told her about you!”
“No, no, I told her about all of us...”
“We just figured that she would only need to see one decoy,” April piped up. “The plan is that if she does believe us and come to America, she's gonna meet up with Casey and then he will

Second Chance - Chapter 2 - Cold
Splinter was awoken from a light sleep to the sound and feeling of a certain baby turtle stirring in his arms. Without opening his eyes, Splinter lightly patted the little one on his shell to try and subdue his coughing.
He hushed him. “It is alright, Michelangelo.”
The smallest of the turtles had become ill only a couple of weeks after they had been 'adopted' and they had begun their lives in the sewer.
Splinter sat up and cradled the little one in his arms. Michelangelo continued to violently cough, shiver, and fuss.
He felt Mikey's forehead; it was still warm. He sighed. “You are still warm. What am I gonna do with yo

Second Chance - Chapter 3 - Tasty Motivation
Michelangelo fell flat on his plastron for at least the tenth time in five minutes. Splinter had been trying to get him to crawl, but the poor little turtle hadn't quite mastered it yet.
The infant fussed at his failure.
“It is alright, Michelangelo,” Splinter lifted him up onto his hands and knees again, “you will get it.”
Mikey tried to move one of his knees forward, but again, he lost his balance and went down on his stomach.
“You almost had it.” Splinter set him up again and Mikey held himself in the position for several seconds before he subtly moved forward, and made it two paces before he collaps

Splinter bent down in front of his oldest toddler and grabbed onto his chubby three-fingered hands. The little one flashed him an eager grin as Splinter carefully pulled him up onto his feet.
Splinter checked over the wobbly toddler to make sure that he was stable.
“Are you okay?” he quietly asked him while holding onto his midsection.
“Uh-huh,” Leo replied.
Splinter slowly released his hold on him and then walked several feet in front of him and knelt down. He flashed Leo an encouraging smile and held out his hands.
“Okay, Leonardo,” he said, “come to me.”
Leo concentrated as he subtly mo

Splinter sat on the toilet with his oldest son sitting on the floor in front of him watching. Once done, he cleaned himself, stood up, and flushed and then turned to Leonardo with an encouraging smile.
“That does not look to hard, does it? Do you wish to try?”
Leo stood up and eagerly waddled to the toilet.
Splinter chuckled. “Very well, then.” He lifted him and set him on the toilet, making certain that he was secure so his tiny bottom wouldn't get swallowed by the big bowl. “Hold on to the sides now, so you do not fall in.”
Leo obeyed and Splinter knelt down in front of him.
“Now that you're up
