Sarah beams up at him for a moment, carefully taking Valerie from him. She lifts her head up for a second to kiss him on the corner of his lips before settling against his chest.
Now, her attention falls on the bundle in her arms. Valerie is awake again, making small sounds as she stares up at this new person. Sarah tilts her daughter upward to give her forehead a kiss.
Then, she murmurs softly: "I am so, so sorry for everything, Valerie darling."
Because her daughter is perfect. This moment is perfect.
