DECORATING "Come on, let's get you both inside where it's warmer," Gareth said, holding a baby carrier with a 5-month-old Efa sleeping peacefully. As you walked inside, you froze and dropped your bag; Christmas decorations covered the living room. Gareth stopped behind you, surprised too. He saw a note on the dining table and placed the baby carrier on the floor beside you and went to get it. He smiled as he read it "My mum and your mum did this" He chuckled "They said, 'We didn't want you coming home and having to worry about decorating or getting a Christmas tree. Call us when you're up for visitors'" You smiled at how thoughtful they were. Gareth send both mums a text saying thank you and that he would call soon. You gently picked Efa up out of her carrier and cradled her against your chest. You walked further inside and slowly sat down on the couch. Gareth followed you and turned on the Christmas tree lights, before sitting beside you on the couch "It's perfect Gar" You said. He kissed your temple and looked down at his little girl. With the lights on behind you both, you looked beautiful. He smiled and realized it was his daughter's first Christmas "First of many" He whispered to himself.

HE SINGS A SONG {HIS POV} "All I Want For Christmas Is You" I gently picked up my crying daughter out of her bassinet and cradled her in my arms "Hey sweet pea" I whispered "What's got my girl all upset?" I cooed, as she snuggled into my chest, her cries softening "Shh it's ok, Daddy is here Efa" I said, "Shall we have a little cuddle?" I walked around the nursery and sat in the rocking chair. I smiled as she looked up at me with her big brown eyes "I don't want a lot for Christmas, there is just one thing I need" I sang, rubbing her stomach softly. My little girl wiggled and reached out for my fingers. I started playing with her chubby little hands and thought about how lucky and happy I was. A daughter was everything I wanted and she was here in time for Christmas. I smiled as Efa closed her eyes and fell back to sleep in my arms "All I want for Christmas is you" I whispered.
CHRISTMAS EVE "You can go, first love," Gareth said, looking at you sitting beside him on the floor. It was Christmas Eve and one of your and Gareth's Christmas traditions was to open one present each on Christmas Eve. You smiled at him as he cradled the month-old little girl close to his chest. You reached out under the tree and picked up a present "To Mummy and Efa, Love Daddy" You read the tag attached, making Gareth smile wider "Something for you too, Sweet pea" Gareth whispered, kissing Efa's head. You unwrapped the present and giggled as you pulled out two identical purple onesies; one for you and one for Efa "Oh Gar" You smiled, holding up the newborn onesie. You moved closer to him and kissed him "Thank you Gar. She will look adorable in it" You whispered, looking down at the little girl. Efa blinked a few times, her big brown eyes looking up at you "And you too darling" He kissed your temple "Go try it on and I'll change Efa" You smiled and quickly went to the bedroom to change. Meanwhile, Gareth laid Efa down on a blanket on the floor and quickly, but gently got her out of the pink onesie. She started to fuss as the cold air hit her skin "Shh Efa, it's alright, there you go" He cooed, doing up the onesie. Just then you walked back into the room "Oh look at you Efa, don't you look cute" You whispered, reaching out for her. Gareth gently placed her in your arms "You're so beautiful Efa" You whispered "Like mother, like daughter" He smiled, looking at his two favorite girls in the world.
CHRISTMAS DAY "Aren't you a gorgeous girl? Come to grandma" Your mum held in her arms. Gareth slowly handed over his little girl. Efa whined as she was transferred to a new set of arms "Shh darling, it's ok" Your mum whispered and cradled her granddaughter close to her. She slowly walked around the living room and sat down on the couch, your dad followed and sat beside her. Your mum gently moved the little girl from her arms and laid her down on the couch beside her. Efa looked around the room, her big eyes landing on her grandma "Oh look at those beautiful eyes. Just like your daddy" She smiled. As she stroked Efa's hands, she grabbed into both your mum's forefingers, making her smile happily "Gar, can you help me in the kitchen before your family gets here" You whispered, taking his hand in yours. You pulled him into the kitchen and he sat on the stool at the counter, watching your parents with his daughter "Gar, Efa is alright" You giggled at his protectiveness of his little girl "It's my mum. She raised me; she knows what she's doing. Plus she loves her little granddaughter" Gareth smiled and finally looked away from Efa to look at you "I know. I just like being with her. I can't help it" He laughed lightly. You walked up to him and kissed his cheek "Merry Christmas Gar" In the corner of your eye you saw your mum with your daughter "Our first Christmas as a family" Gareth wrapped his arm around your waist, pulling you closer to him "And I couldn't ask for anything better for Christmas"
