Emma smiled at Allen as he
entered the room and said, “Let me introduce you to your daughter Josie.”
Allen started to breathe
again, and went over to look at his offspring. Emma said. “Have you ever seen
anything more beautiful?”
Allen didn't know what to
say, it was so little, he answered, “No not ever. Josie, do you think she will
like that name?”
Emma said, “Absolutely, I do,
don't you?” Allen said, “Of course I do.”
He realized that he had not
enquired as to how the mother was doing so he asked, “How are you doing?” She answered, “I'm a lot sorer than I thought
I would be but I am alright. Besides it was worth every bit of it.”
Allen just sat looking at his
child, not saying much. Then the nurse came in and told him that Emma needed to
rest, and to come back tomorrow.
That night it took Allen some
time to go to sleep even though he was tired.
He couldn't stop thinking
about Josie and couldn't get over the fact that she was here, was in good
health, and soon she would be living with him.
The next day belonged to the
grandparents; they spent a good portion of the day looking at Josie either when
she was in the bed with Emma or through the nursery window.
Three days after the birth Emma wanted to go home so the final preparation had to be made by Allen.
It had been shock after shock
for Allen these few days. And this one
of picking Emma and Josie up to go home for the first time was another bit of a
trauma for him.
Allen had taken a week off in
preparation for this event but with Emma's mother would be staying with them for
another week, so he decided to go back to work.
The girls in the office had
many questions, and they were asked again and again until finally Allen kept
his office door closed.

A week later Emma brought
Josie down for the girls to see and that created a stoppage of work. Finally Allen said, “Everyone back to work
now.”
Then Emma said aloud, “Now
hush Papa, Josie isn't finished visiting yet.”
That sent Allen back into his
office to do his work.
Emma stopped by his office to say goodbye, and to change and feed Josie. All that visiting had made the baby hungry. As Emma sat nursing Josie, Allen thought, “That is what breasts are really for and not just a fashion accessory.”

After they had left the
office, Allen was looking forward to leaving work himself to be with them.
Although Josie had been with
them only a few days she had already taken over the household and was in
control of both Emma and Allen but they didn't seem to mind.
As Allen thought back over
his life he realized both he and Emma were still young and that there would be
more siblings for Josie either planned or not.
Life seemed like a long
journey so far, some of it was very dull but also with some excitement along
the way.
He was looking forward to the
rest of their lives together and was going to make the most of.
