"happy birthday dear Violet, happy birthday to you" Sang a chorus of John and Sherlock's friends.
The parents couldn't believe their daughter was already 1 year old.
Sherlock cut the cake, giving a large piece to Violet. "Jawn! The camera!"
John grabbed the camera and waited for Violet to take her first bite.
When she did, she was blinded by everyone's flash cameras.
John and Sherlock made conversation with the visitors. Sherlock talked with Lestrade
"When are you planning on coming back?" Lestrade asks Sherlock.
"Soon. I just don't want to burden John. You know, most couples divorce because having a child is too much stress. It causes them to see the absolute worst in each other."
"You and John? Split up? Yeah right! You're in love with each other. Come back to the consulting detective life."
Sherlock just smiles.
Molly, Lestrade, and Mycroft leave after a bit. As John and Sherlock were cleaning up, Sherlock brought up what Lestrade and he had talked about.
"He wants me to go back to the life... You know. Being consulted, solving crimes."
"Oh? Well you should. It's been a year. You need something before you go mad."
Sherlock thinks.
"John, do you think we're going to be... Together for you know... Until death due us part?" Sherlock asks.
"Wouldn't be wearing this ring if not." He says. 
Sherlock smiles.
They go about cleaning again. That night, John and Sherlock stay up for a bit. Sherlock softly playing the violin and John reading.
"So, are you going to go back to working?"
"You remember how I was when I had a case? Not talking except to you? Running around like a madman?" Sherlock replies. "I just think... Maybe I should look into getting a new job. The life I lived isn't met for having a family. Growing up around that might make Violet like me."
"She'd be lucky to be as clever as you are. You love your job."
"Yes but I love my family too."
Violet starts crying, so Sherlock goes to pick her up.
"I just think you should do a case. See how you do. Please." John says.
