"Jessica, should I call Jennifer and Gary in?" Catherine asks.
"No, not yet.. I need more time." Jessica looks down to the baby who looked up to her mother with big beautiful eyes.
"You are so wide awake, aren't you? You just wanna see what's going on in this world."
Sarah snapped a few pictures as Jessica spoke to the baby.
Danny then sat beside her and Jessica smiles to him.
"Would you like to hold her?"
"I'd love to! But.. what if I drop her?"
Jessica giggles. "You won't. Just hold her close. Talk to her, she knows your voice."
Jessica hands the baby to Danny and he instantly falls in love.
"Wow.. Well hello, pretty lady." He smiles.
Jessica laughs softly and watches his face.
"It's so great to finally meet you. You're even more beautiful than I ever thought possible."
Danny then placed a kiss on her forehead and the baby looked up to him.
"Aw she likes kisses!" Jessica smiles.
Danny chuckles and takes her tiny hand.
"Oh my gosh, look at her hand! It's so small!"
"It is! Tiny hands but the girl can throw a punch." Jessica says.
Sarah laughs and takes his picture.
Isla then gently squeezes it. "She's holding my hand! She squeezed it!"
"Aw Danny, you're tearing up!" Jessica smiles.
"She was just inside of you, and now she's here!"
"Yep!" She giggles.
"Wow.. Oh gosh.. Isla, we would have gone on so many adventures together.. I'm really gonna miss you. But your mommy is doing the best thing for you. You'll thank her one day.
.. I hope you look us up when you're older."
Jessica listens and wipes her tears. Catherine rubs her back for support.
"My turn!" Sarah shouts.
"Her ears are tiny, loser. Stop screaming." Danny makes a face.
"Sorry!" Sarah whispers.
"She's okay." Jessica smiles softly as Danny hands her over.
"Oh my goodness, Hi! You are so cute! I'm Sarah. I'm a really cool person, and your mommy's best friend.. even though Danny thinks he is. He's not!"
Jessica laughs as tears slowly roll down her cheeks.
"You okay, honey?" Catherine asks.
"Yeah.. it's just hard."
"I know, sweet girl."
"Baby girl, I want you to meet your.. auntie Catherine." Jessica giggles.
"Oh you're rushing me now?" Sarah says.
"Well you don't have to hand her over yet if you don't want to."
"No it's fine. But I'm getting her back later!"
Catherine takes the baby and smiles. "Well look at you! You look just like your mommy, don't you?"
"Thank you." Jessica giggles softly.
"You are beautiful.
.. Let me tell you something. We are never going to forget you. You'll forever hold a special place in all of our hearts.... and I hope you know how much your mommy loves you."
