I propped the little girls head back so I could get a good look at her. She looked up at me with big beautiful cerulean eyes, that had faints of silver in them. She had rosy cheeks, and her hair was a beautiful chocolate brown color with small strands of (h/c) hair.

I felt a tear force it's way out of my eye. "Celestia, you really are the spitting image of your father." I said with a great deal of sadness.

I smiled down at her as she reached her little chubby arms up to wipe my tears. I laughed softly and gently placed my face in her reach. "You're my Angel, Celestia. You saved me, thank you." She wiped away the tears and giggled at me.

I smiled brightly at her then carefully placed her back into her crib. She huffed for a second, and threw her arms in a irritated manner.

I laughed out, and shook my head at her. "Now now Star, you need to go to bed. It's still so late. Here let's get you all tucked in, okay.?" I reached over to her nightstand and grabbed her SpringBonnie plushy. I let out a deep sight, as I felt this heaviness make its way to my heart.

I quickly pushed the pain away, and gently laid her down and then grabbed her little blanket that has sundrop and moondrop on them. I pulled the blanket over her and tucker her in then handed her the SringBonnie plushy. She smiled brightly then nestled into the plushy quickly drifting off to sleep.

I stared down at her for a moment in awe. I bent over and placed a loving kiss on her forehead, "Goodnight, my little star." She let out a small coo, then grabbed onto her Spring Plushy harder.

I turned her nightlight on then made my way out her room. I made my way to my room, and left it cracked so I could hear if she cried or had woken up. I laid down pulling my purple silk comforter up to my chest. I nestled my head into the blanket and let myself embrace the pain that still lingered heavily on my heart.

"I miss you so much William." I softly spoke out, then felt myself drifting off to sleep.

I woke up upon hearing the fussy cries of Celestia, I glanced over at the clock on my nightstand to see that the time was 10:00 a.m. . I gasped and quickly jumped out of my bed throwing my comforter off of me and quickly made my way to her room.
