-Hamish (Rachel's dad) POV-
"She is beautiful." I say to my wife as I hold my gorgeous new born daughter in my arms. "Are we still going with Rachel Anne?" She asks me. I nod my head. "Welcome to the world, Rachel Anne." I introduce her as she cries. After holding her for a few minutes the doctor carefully takes her out of my arms so he can clean the blood off of her.
"She really is beautiful, Carol." I say to Carol. "I know honey." She replies. I honestly don't think I could ask for better looking daughters than the ones I've got.

"Daddy! Daddy can I see the baby?" Holly yells as Carol, Rachel and I walk through the front door of our house. I smile at her. "Holly, this is your new baby sister, Rachel. I want you to be very gentle with her." I tell her calmly. She suddenly puts on a straight face and nods. Michael then comes over to see her. "Wow dad she's very cute!" Michael almost shouts as he sees her. I smile and nod. "I know Mike, I know."

"Please? Oh please please please can we hold her?" Michael and Holly both nag. "Guys, she's a new born baby. She can break very, very easily. Both of you sit on the lounge and you can have a turn of holding her." I tell them both sternly. They both nod smiling then skip to the couch. "Michael can go first to show you how to do it okay Holly?" I say. She nods as I carefully place Rachel in Michaels arms. "She isn't even heavy dad!" Michael says placing his arm in a different position to support Rachel's head properly. After about 5 minutes I carefully take Rachel out of Michaels arms and place her gently on Hollys lap and moving her arms into a more comfortable position.
🎈Rachel's 1st Birthday🎈
"Happy birthday to you-" we all sing in unison as Rachel is smiling and clapping her hands whilst eating a little bit of icing from her cake. Carol is standing infront taking photos.

At the moment Holly and Michael are playing with Rachel on the lounge room floor with her new toys that she got for her birthday while Carol is in the office printing out photos she took today and I am in the kitchen cooking dinner. I decided on Rachel's favourite- lasagne.
-Michaels POV-
"Give it back Holly!" I shout to her. She took Rachels building blocks that I was playing with. She laughs and evil laugh then runs upstairs to her bedroom taking the blocks with her. I then decide I'm going to help dad in the kitchen. "Hey dad can I help?" I ask him. "Yeah Mike can you stir the mince for a sec?" I nod my head yes then take his place in the kitchen.
-Carols POV-
I feel like I'm about to cry. My kids were absolutely perfect and they all got along so well. There's this perfect picture that I accidentally took which I am going to save in several places on my desktop computer so I can easily find it.
