I smiled as he kissed me and walked out.

“Did you hear that, Sarah? You get to come home with Mommy and Daddy in one week.” I smiled as I kissed her head and cuddled her against my chest.

We spent the next day traveling from furniture store to furniture store, picking out every piece of furniture we needed. I had the best ideas of how to decorate, and Max agreed with me.

“You’re the interior designer, so anything you pick out will be amazing.”

“Not an interior designer yet, my love.”

“Well, consider our home your first project.”

We picked out everything we needed to fill our space while the movers were packing everything up at my apartment and Max’s. Max had to pull some strings to get the furniture delivered within a couple of days. Things were moving so fast that it was making my head spin. The nursery was being painted, and the furniture was being moved over to the penthouse. I gave the painters the colors to ensure they bought the right paint color.

It was now day six, and tomorrow was the big day. Sarah was coming home. We spent our first night at our new place last night and christened our new bed more than once. Furniture wise, everything was in its place, including the nursery and all of Sarah’s things I had purchased. Cardboard boxes filled most of the wall space with our things from the other apartments, and I had planned to start unpacking after I went to the hospital to visit Sarah. It was a Saturday, and Max told me he had to stop by the office for a bit to catch up on some work and that he’d meet me at the hospital.

As I was feeding Sarah her bottle and rocking her in the chair, Max walked in with a big smile on his face.

“Hi.” He bent down and gave us both a kiss.

“Hi. Did you get some work done?”

“I sure did. Let’s go to lunch. I’m starving.”

“Okay. We can grab something to eat in the cafeteria.”

“Emma, I was thinking of a nice restaurant. Aren’t you sick of eating this hospital food?”

“A little, but I don’t want to leave her.”

He gave me a small smile as he knelt down beside me. “We’ll come back later, and she’ll be home tomorrow.”

“Okay.”

After I fed her, Max took her from me and burped her. Watching him with her was one of the most precious moments of my life. He was a natural, and he loved her more than anything in the world. After we laid her down and said goodbye, Max took me to a place called Anassa Taverna.

“What restaurant is this?” I asked as we stepped out of the Rolls Royce.

“A place with really good food.” He smiled.

We walked through the large doors, and Max led me up the stairs. When I reached the top step, everyone yelled, “Surprise!” I was taken aback as I placed my hand over my chest.

“Oh my God. What is this?” I asked in excitement as I looked around at all the people staring at me.

“It’s your baby shower!” Molly exclaimed as she hugged me.

I looked at Max, and he had a big grin on his face. “Did you do this?”

“I helped.” He winked.

I looked around at the tables that were covered in white tablecloths with a light pink overlay. White and pink balloons with Sarah’s name were scattered everywhere, and centerpieces made of white and pink roses filled each table. Tears sprang to my eyes as Kara and Aubrey hugged me.

“You didn’t think we’d let you go without a shower, did you?”

“I didn’t think about it, actually.”

I was overwhelmed and overjoyed.

“I have another surprise for you.” Max smiled as he took my hand and led me over to the corner of the bar, where I saw my mom and Danny sitting.
