After what they have been through, everything has changed. JJ and Spencer are living a dream with their children; Hope and Jaeden. And what about Emily and Hotch who love their adopted chi...
We are now free to go. Lindsey's hair has become lighter but the nurse said it was normal and in a few weeks her hair will come back as dark as they were. She has gained some weight and she is now weighing 5 pounds. It is small but her lungs are fully developed so she can come home with me. As I dress up, JJ dresses Lindsey and installs her in her car seat.
"Penelope and Carolyn said they would stay with you to help you. But they will bring the kids with them. Is it okay?" She says, rubbing her 14 weeks belly.
"That's okay."
"I will go back to work tomorrow. But I will stay with you tonight. And I will come back to my family also! I'm sure Spence can't wait for me to come back home!"
I turn back to see my daughter. She seems to be about to cry, but she doesn't make a sound. She seems asleep and I she had fallen asleep like that.

I pick up her seat and I walk to the reception to sign the papers for my leaving. Then I walk to the SUV. I install the car seat and I sit next to JJ who heads back home. Once home, I walk to Lindsey's bedroom to put her in bed as she's sleeping. When I get downstairs, I see JJ cleaning the living room.
"You know you can wait till tomorrow before cleaning? I'm very tired and I'm sure you are too. You should get some rest."
She nods in agreement. She goes upstairs with me and gets in the guest room as I get in my bedroom. It is only 7pm, but I feel like it's 10pm. I'm so exhausted that it takes me only 5 minutes to fall deeply asleep...

"Emily? I think there's someone who's pretty hungry," JJ says, in the doorframe, turning on the light.
I rub my eyes and I sit straight up. JJ walks to me, holding my daughter. I hold her, ready to breastfeed her.
"She woke you up, didn't she?"
"Yes, but that's okay!"
"What time is it?"
"3am. And I think you should check her diaper because it seems full!"
"I will, thanks! I think you can go back to sleep," I smile.
JJ smiles back and leaves the room. I hear the guest room door closing.
Lindsey looks up and spits the milk she has in her mouth and she smiles.
