Chapter 1

It's the morning of Charlie's first birthday when Sarah goes into her nursery in the morning and looks down at her just waking up in her crib.

"good morning my birthday girl!" Sarah says excitedly

Charlie sneezes wiping her nose with her hand and is congested

"oh, my poor baby are you sick?" Sarah wonders picking her up holding her feeling her burning forehead

"oh baby." Sarah says sympathically

"Seth!" she calls hearing him coming out of the shower in thier bathroom in thier bedroom

"what babe I'm in a towel I'll be right there." he tells her throwing on some grungy jeans and a band teeshirt and comes into the nursery

'what's wrong?" he wonders

"she's sick." she tells him

"oh no." he says feeling her head looking at Charlie all concered

"let me see her." he tells her

"okay." she says

Seth puts his arms out to Charlie.

Sarah hands Charlie over to him.

"you hold her and I'll go and get her some medicine I'll be right back." she tells him

Seth sits down with Charlie in her rocking chair rocking and holding her stroking her head.
