"Oh look who it is" Raf says as he looks over at the door to see Lucy standing with her mum.

Cara looks up to see them and as soon as Lucy spies Cara she comes running over.

"Cara!" Lucy shouts

Cara smiles, "hello" she smiles as Lucy tries to reach up to hug her and Raf but can't.

Raf helps Lucy onto the bed and quickly hugs Cara before peering into the cot. "Congratulations baby" Joan smiles as she hugs Cara.

"Thanks" she smiles as she hugs them both back.

"How did you clarinet exam go?" Cara asks.

"good" Lucy says as she's more interested in Jack.

"Oh Cara he's gorgeous" Joan smiles as she looks at him.

"He's be very well behaved I have to say" Cara smiles.

"Can I hold him?" Lucy asks Cara.

"No not yet, let mum hold him first" Cara smiles. "Come sit on my knee Luc and give me lot's of cuddles while mum holds him" Cara smiles.

Lucy nods and climbs onto Cara's lap as Raf gets Jack out the cot and passes him to Joan.

"What grade on the clarinet missy?" Cara smiles.

"Six" Lucy smiles

"Oh well done, was you nervous?" Cara asks.

"No but because I passed grade Six Mummy is getting me a new clarinet with reeds" Lucy smiles.

"Ooh very fancy, you'll have to play for me sometime" Cara smiles as she hugs her sister.

Lucy nods and smiles "mummy said you played the violin" Lucy says a little unsure.

"Yeah I did for a while, but I gave it up when I was younger and I regret it so never ever give up the clarinet!" Cara says.

Cara looks over at her mum and smiles "he's so tiny Cara" Joan says as she admires his tiny face.

"I love the name" she smiles.

"There's a boy in my class called Jack Arnold" Lucy smiles.

"Really? What other storys do you have to tell me?" Cara smiles.

"I had to talk about someone I look up to in my family in my new class as I'm moving into year five... And I spoke about you" Lucy smiles as she points to Cara.

"Really? What did you say?" Cara smiles as she blushes a little.

"That you save lives every day" Lucy giggles.

Cara smiles, "do you want to hold Jack now?" she asks and Lucy nods excitedly.

"Will you come and watch me in the end of year show? I'm playing my clarinet all by myself" Lucy says as Cara takes Jack off Joan.

"Yes of course" Cara smiles.

"Cara! Me and Mummy bought him a teddy bear!" Lucy says.

"Oh really? Let me see then" Cara smiles.

"Mummy has it in her bag" Lucy smiles as she kisses Jack's cheek.
