March 7th, 4 years earlier.

" it's a boy, Mr and MRS Cole," the doctor said and I let out an exhausted smile. They brought him out of the room to clean him. Jasper kisses the palm of my hand.

" love you are absolutely brilliant but you need to rest," Jasper told me but I was a little bit ahead of him. I nodded regardless and closed my eyes to rest since I haven't slept for two days.

Jasper was whispering to me but I had no idea what he was saying my ears basically tune out the world leaving me to fall peacefully into a blissful sleep a much-needed one.

When I awoke Jasper was sitting in the armchair next to my bed. A baby in his hands, the only other person in the room was a nurse near the door writing down forms.

" morning love" Jasper said standing up and coming closer to me. He held our baby just over me till I got my arms in the proper position. Slowly he handed me our baby and I gasped as the tiny body was in my hands. He stuck his tongue out and yawned causing my heart to melt.

"What should we name him?" Jasper asked, we did have a list but that was at home.

" How about Joseph" I suggested, Jasper thought for a second trying the name out but ultimately shook his head.

" Billy?" He suggested but I shook my head immediately

" absolutely not, wait how about Bennett" I suggested " after your brother" Jasper's older brother died from leukemia when he was 16 Jasper was 12.

"....really?" He asked and I nodded

" It suits him don't you think my little Bennett," I said smiling and he nodded lightly kissing my little boy... Bennett's head.

" Bennett Cole" Jasper repeated " Bennett Alfred Cole"

I looked up at him and smiled " Bennett Alfred Cole" I repeated

PRESENT DAY

" just a little bit more OK BENNY YOU CAN COME DOWN NOW" I shouted up the stairs and my little four-year-old came flying down the stairs. He dashed to the table where his french toast was laying dormant on its plate. He started to eat it and I laughed. Stella Ruth had started walking or not really walking because she always fell but rather standing. She was standing holding on to Bennett's chair as he ate his french toast. I don't know why she is staring because whenever I try to give her french toast she throws it on the floor or at my face. Bennett was enjoying his french toast though.

As soon as he was finished Jasper and I got his gifts from our room, he was licking the syrup off of his plate when we got back, Stella ruth bouncing on her leg to see what he was doing.

" you ready for your gift sweetie? " I asked and he nodded, I took mine out first which of course was in a gift bag. He pulled out the gift excitedly, examining the toy in front of him his face broke out in a smile looking at the giant ceiling plane that rotates looking like it is flying.

He started to open it when Jasper stopped him.

" bud what about the rest of your gifts?" Jasper laughed and Bennett's eyes lit up.

Jasper set a big wrapped gift on the table showing off his wrapping skills. It didn't matter though because Bennett isn't bias and ripped through the wrapping I mean completely destroyed it.

A scooter... a dangerous scooter for my baby. Bennett seemed happy though and tried to open the box.

" wait a couple more buddy"

" this one is from Stella Ruth" Jasper said lifting Stella Ruth onto his hip, I set a card in front of Bennett is was painted with ink. Terrifying when I found her covered in ink and called the doctor out of fear. She had made random finger prints that looked like a giant b and I called a whole bunch of people to see if I was the only one who saw it, I wasn't my 9 month old made a giant B a day before her big brothers birthday.

" this one is from uncle Aiden" I said taking a giant gift from the floor I could barley lift it.

Bennett tore the wrapping paper is everyone better at wrapping gifts or do I just suck.

A giant sports set for 3+ year old 3 basketballs with two adjustable hoops, 2 soccer balls and a two net, four hockey sticks four pucks and two nets and baseball set with two bats, four baseballs and four gloves.

" Right...uh this one is from Uncle Liam and Uncle Dylan" Jasper said setting a small gift on the table. Bennet ripped open the wrapping as usual, there was a box so he pulled it open. Folded was a fighter pilot outfit Bennett squealed in delight.

"two more buddy" Jasper said placing two gifts on the table.

" the small one is from aunt Victoria and the bigger one is from uncle Charlie" I said

Bennett excited to take out his gifts and play with them ripped open the small box. An really nice pair of shoes black and white with blue wings on the sides.

The last box was a night light, little characters sitting next to a fire and when you switched it on the top opened showing the characters and the fire that changed colours. Red, blue, yellow, green and pink.

He looked up at us waiting to see if there were anymore, then he jumped off his chair and hugged me, then hugged Jasper he looked up at Stella Ruth and Jasper lowered her to the floor. Bennett hugged her.

" thank you" he whispered but Jasper and I heard and exchanged a smile, then ran off to go play with his new toys.
