Before he kisses me, I wipe away a stray tear from his cheek. My own eyes dampen as I watch him. He looks lost, confused as the news settle. As he realises what our hands lie above.
Then it clicks and he beams. A surge of love washes over me. I'll never forget this moment - we'll never forget this moment. I feel so proud, so happy, so absolutely elated all at once.
"We're stopping before we reach seven," I tell him with a laugh. While I've always wanted children, I only ever pictured having one or two. But with Ewan, knowing how much family means to him, seeing this sort of reaction, being able to give him this sort of gift... oh, it's so hard to say no.
He tells me he loves me and before I have a chance to respond, I've been pulled in for a passionate kiss. I return it eagerly, happily - so very, very pleased. My eyes close and I move to rest my hand on his cheek.
I love you, too. I love you so much. I never thought... never thought that I'd have a family like this. Oh, I love you, Ewan.

Our kiss turns salty. I've begun to cry.
