"Baby, why are you crying?"

"Because, I-I.." Jessica sobs and walks over to hug him.

Grayson looks up at Danny and lifts his hands.
Danny shrugs his shoulders and nods his head.

"Honey, can you tell me what you're upset about?"

"I'm not upset. I just really like that name."

"Oh. Well I'm glad.."

"I had a dream about Felicity.."

"You did?"

"Yeah.. She said that her and the baby are able to play right now, and that.. *Cries* Th-They like chasing butterflies. When you said that, it-It just got to me."

"Awe baby." He rubs her back and kisses the top of her head.

"I want that to be her name Danny. I know that's her name."

"Yeah?" He looks down and smiles.

Jessica nods her head and Danny wipes her cheeks.

"Our little girl has a name?"

"Mhm! Our little princess Nova." Jessica smiles.

"Awe! Baby, I'm so excited! The name is so perfect for her." Danny squeezes her right, then bends down and kisses her belly.

"I know.. She's gonna be so perfect."

Dinner.

"Boys, your little sister has a name!" Jessica smiles.

"What is it?" James asks.

"Nova."

"Nova?  That's pretty!"

"Awe she's gonna be so cute!  The little Princess!" Caroline smiles.

"I know!  Just around eleven more weeks till she's here!"

"We have to start planning a baby shower!"

"You're so cute when you're excited." James smiles and kisses Caroline's lips.

"You're so cute when you're excited!" Sam mocks his brother.

"You know who's baby shower we have to plan first, is Sam and Tiffany's!" Jessica says.

"Really?"

"Of course!  My little grandson is going to be so spoiled!
Jane and Ann have already started planning."

"Really?  That's so sweet! I know Tiff will be excited."

"Sweetie, invite her to dinner more often, I want to get to know her more!"

"I will.  She really does like you guys.  Mom, I know she wants to talk to you.  She's terrified about giving birth."

"Poor baby!  Samuel, invite her over for lunch tomorrow after church."

"I will." He smiles.

The next day.

"Hi Tiffany, how are you feeling?"

"I'm feeling okay.  Tired, but I'm doing well, thank you."

"Come sit!"

"Thank you!  Mrs. Huston."

"No, call me Jessie!  Mrs. Huston is my mother in law!" Jessica giggles.

"Alright, thank you!  Oh and you look absolutely beautiful by the way.  How do you look so refreshed and gorgeous being so pregnant?  I look like something off the walking dead because your grandson just tires me out so much!"
