[Alli's POV]

It took them 2 months, or 8 weeks, or 60 days, or 1,460 hours, or 87,656 minutes in the NICU, but somehow, against the odds, Angela, Quentin, and Mira reached all three milestones: breathing, eating, and regulating their tempature, by their original due date and today, for the first time in their short but eventful lives, they would finally go outside the hospital and begin living out their lives as the beautiful, amazing miracles of Charles and Alli Trippy. As I packed our bags, Charles held them, dressed in their coming-home outfits. "I knew you could do it." He whispered. "No matter what the doctors said, you weren't going to give up." I smiled at him. Finally we were all packed up and ready to go home. We walked out of the hospital and across the parking lot to our car. Charles put the babies in their carseats and then sat down in the passenger seat. I began to drive home. "HEY!" Charles exclaimed. "What the..." I yelled, stopping myself from swearing. "What?" I asked. "In one month I can drive!" He said excitedly. "Whoa, yeah!" I smiled. So much had happened in nine months- Charles became cancer free, I found out I was pregnant, I found out I was pregnant with twins, I found out I was pregnant with triplets and one was displaced, I birthed two humans, I was cut open and had another human extracted from my body, our children fought for their lives in the NICU as micro preemie babies, our children reached all three milestones: breathing, eating, and regulating their temperature by their original due date. It was a magical day.
