Title: Through a Father eyes

Rating: G

Rachel rambling: Yes I started another one, but I hurt my knee and am confined to sitting still. This is very different for me. Yes it's still about Adam (how shocking) I hope I didn't mess up any other characters so far. I really would appreciate feedback. Um yeah, the rest is pretty basic. I don't own anything.

I look down into the bluest eyes I'd ever seen in my life. It was strange how much perfection can be swaddled into a small blue blanket. I was looking into the eyes of my brand new son. I don't know if I'd ever felt so full. Full of life, full of love, complete.

Sarah rested her head back and took another glance down to the infant in her arms. How could I have doubted even for a moment that this wasn't right? Yes our oldest child was fifteen followed by twelve and the baby, well not any more but our second youngest at ten. This baby came as a surprise to all of us. At thirty-seven years old I thought I was too old to be a father again. To far removed from the diapers and the screaming.

Looking down at the wife I love and the child in her arms every doubt was erased. I know that this baby was something we needed.

"Philip," Sarah said looking up at me. "Philip," She repeated again smiling.

"Sorry, I was just,"

"You were just hypnotized by the perfection that is your son," She said reading my thoughts. "Go get the children I want them to meet there brother."

I almost didn't want to leave. I felt like a five year old on Christmas morning. I didn't want to leave; I didn't want to blink simply in fear that something might change. But I did leave. I found the kids sitting in the cafeteria.

Hailey was the first to spot me, "Did she have it?" I laughed a little; Hailey had been the most excited about the new baby. At thirteen years old she loved everything about kids.

"Yes, you Mom had the baby and both are doing fine,"

"So what was the kid?" Matt asked looking up at me with a bored expression. I couldn't blame him, they'd been here quite a while.

"Another boy,"

"Yes," Jason and Matt hit hands at the news while Hailey slightly pouted. I had to admit even I had thought having two boys and two girls would be fun, but there was nothing to be done now.

"I guess little boys can be cute, sometimes." She said glaring over at her gloating brothers. "Can we go see him?" She asked turning her attention back to me.

"Yes, but be quite. And keep it brief you Mother needs rest," All three nodded and got up quickly. I knew each was excited about meeting the new member of the family.

The other two filled in quickly but Jason stopped short. He turned back and looked at me.

"So I'm not the baby any more?" Jason asked looking a little upset. I guess it was my fault for years I'd called him my baby.

"Well, you're not the youngest any more." His face fell. I felt a twinge in my heart; the news was the hardest on him. "But your still my baby" I said pulling him into a hug.

"It's not the same," He sighed pushing away a little dragging his feet into the room.

"Hey Jason, come see the little guy." Matt called to him. I placed my hand on his shoulder and steered him over there.

He looked down at the baby with a mix of interest and annoyance written on his face.

"What do you think we should name him?" Matt asked. Matt was a great older brother, he played with Jason but more importantly he was there for him. "I voted for Anthony,"

Hailey rolled her eyes, "Heck no we have to name him something cute like Tommy or Justin."

Jason shook his head his nose scrunched up. Matt laughed and hit his shoulder, "Then what do you think?"

"Adam. His name is Adam."

I looked up at Sarah she had her I'm in deep thought crease on her forehead. But slowly she started nodding, "Adam, I think that's the perfect name Jason. Just perfect." She leaned over and kissed his head. Jason was now beaming.

"I got to name the baby," He said gloating to Matt.

"Yeah, you won again. You're so spoiled."

"Rotten." Hailey added.

"I'm just the baby."

"Not anymore." Hailey said. To her she was pointing out a fact, Matt hit her as Jason looked down at the floor.

"I'm still Daddy's baby, aren't I?" He looked up at me.

I smiled at him, "Always,"

"I'm sorry to interrupt but o you have a name for the birth certificate yet?" A nurse holding the paper work stood in the doorway.

"Yes, I do." She pulled out a pen, "This is Adam Nathaniel Banks."

End Prologue

More Rachel Rambling: Basically my idea was to write Adam growing up through Philip eyes, I know in this chapter he may have been a little to 'fluffy' but I'm still working out exactly how my version of him will be. I hope you liked this first little tid bit and I'll get a real chapter up as soon as possible! Oh yes and I am looking for a beta for this story, any takers?
