     "She's beautiful!" Optimus said as he handed me the small bundle of joy that was our daughter.

     I gently took her into my arms, gazing into her deep blue eyes. "She has your eyes Optimus."

     "And your smile," he said.

     "Either way," Ratchet said, "She's a beauty. Congratulations."

     "Thank you," Optimus replied. He turned to look at me. "Now we just have to think of a name."

     We both looked at her, and realized that she was staring up, at the sky. It was night, and the stars were out. She must be watching them.

     "How about... Stella."

     "She does seem to like the stars," Optimus commented.

     "Stella it is then."

     Ratchet filled out his part of the birth certificate, and then Optimus and I signed as well. I couldn't believe we were actually signing a birth certificate. Never in my life did I expect that I would ever have a baby. Well, apparently, I do now.

     "Welcome to the Universe Stella."

     This was only the beginning. There was much more.
