Meredith carefully finished putting the last touches on her daughter's nursery. It had turned out well to only have taken three weeks to put together. The room was a nice light shade of pink; the crib was a brown sleigh crib. On the opposite side of the room was the white picket changing table, along with the brown suede rocking chair with footrest. The curtains were dressed with white curtains embroidered with little flowers on the bottom. The mobile that hung over the bed was adorned with little plush flowers and fairies, which sang "Hush Little Baby "when you winded it. Now all that had to be done was move the crib a little and of course the scariest part having the actual baby to pt in the room.
"Hey, I believe our daughter should be in bed sleeping." teased Derek.
"Well if her mom could stop being so paranoid about becoming a mother she would be." said Meredith.
Derek sighed and went over to her and wrapped his arms around her stomach and gently kissed her neck."You are going to be a great mother to our daughter." said Derek with complete honesty in his voice.
"What if I completely mess up….or drop her….or can't get her to stop crying..or." said Meredith as she tried to finish but was silenced by Derek kissing her lips gently and softly.
"Mer, you're not the only who's completely petrified of becoming a parent". said Derek
"Yes, but you've at least been around nieces and nephews." said Meredith.
"Yes, but that's different, when they start to cry you can just hand them back", he continued."With this if she starts to cry we'll know how to soothe her and what she likes and doesn't". said Derek.
"How do you always know what to say and how to say it." said Meredith as she leaned into his chest tired and exhausted from all her worrying.
"It's a gift." said Derek jokingly.
"Well you're not one to deny it." teased Meredith.
Derek laughed and kissed the top of her forehead."Look Mer, I know you're worried about this but do you see this ring on my finger?" asked Derek, before continuing. "This means I'm in it for the long run right beside you no matter what happens." Said Derek.
"That's just what I like to here." said Meredith a she shut off the nursery bedroom lights.
Together they walked down the hall with eachother and got into the bed feeling less scared and more excited for their daughter's arrival.
