"Wow, she's so small..." the six year old said with a small smile on his face, showing the missing tooth in his mouth as he looked down at the baby who was wrapped snugly in a pink hospital cloth. Right next to him was his dad, making sure to hold the little human closely to the small boy so he could get a better look. "So what are we going to name her, mijo?" The man asked glancing over at his wife who was laying down in the hospital bed, slight bags under her tired eyes.
Thinking for a bit, he put his finger into his chin and shifted in his seat. "Hmm, booger!" The boy exclaimed throwing both his fist in the air at the awesome idea, it was just like naming a small puppy. "Absolutely not, David Jimenez." His mother scolded with a small chuckles. "Try again, kiddo..." the man suggested.
For a small moment of the boy examining the girls very tiny face, he saw her smile slightly in her sleep, in turn made him gasp and cover his mouth. It was strange to him how someone could be so freakishly small, even her nose, it was like a tiny button. When she smiled, one dimple showed, she always had that one dimple on the right side of her face.
"Can I hold her?" David asked looking at his dad with puppy eyes. Once he found out he was going to be a big brother yet again, he as excited. Rio on the other hand didn't really care since he was only two year old at the time. While David wanted another brother so he could place with him, he supposed that having a sister would be different, and new, he never knew what it was like to have a little sister.
"Sure, just be careful with her head." His dad warned, standing in front of him and lead down to very carefully pass the girl to her brother, making sure to not hurt her neck or head. "...she only has one dimple...let's name her dimple." David suggested looking back to his mother, then his father. "That's an upgrade from booger..." the woman commented with a shrug of her shoulders.
"We're gonna need a real name. Like your name, something that she would like when she's older." His dad, Gustavo said, going back to sitting right beside him just to make sure the baby was comfortable and safe in her brothers arms. Something that she would like? The small boy thought to himself with a tilt of his head, how am I supposed to know what she likes. I can't ask her, she can't talk yet.
So he decided to go through letters of the alphabet in his mind. First was A's, all he thought about was kids names from school that started with A's, none of them seemed right. Now he went into the B's. Somehow, somewhere in his little tiny brain he remembered a name, he didn't know where it was from or how it came to mind, it just sort of popped up out of no where.
