The Doctor's daughter, the Doctor's son and the Doctor's daughter.
Donna River Tyler
Donna was brilliant. As soon as she could string two words together she chattered away enough to rival her namesake. Independent and confident, the Doctor often joked that she could join Torchwood and just yell at the aliens. No doubt they would have turned tail and run away as fast at their hyperspace warp engines would take them. If Donna said something would happen, her parents were had no uncertainty that it would indeed happen. If Donna said that this button right here would save the world, that button right there would save the world.

Mickey Pete Tyler
"Mickey the genius!" the Doctor called him. "Makes a nice change, don't you think Rose?" Rose just punched him lightly on the arm.
"Mummy?" Mickey inquired, "Why did you just hit Daddy?"
Rose rolled her eyes at the Doctor and said, "Because, baby, Daddy needs to know who is the boss."
Rose knew Mickey would be a genius the first time he formulated a word. Why? That was his first word; why! Mickey was the image of the Doctor. From his rumpled hair to his toothy grin. The Doctor said it was interesting to see what he would have looked like as a three year old.

Jenny Harriet Tyler
Jenny was the youngest, but she never let that slow her down. Almost immediately after she began to toddle the Doctor and Rose were constantly making sure she didn't crawl off a building or stroll into a spaceship. Jenny loved visiting new places and the Doctor loved taking her. When her eyes shone with wonder, he was reminded so strongly of his other Jenny and Rose all at once he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and he found doing both at once problematic.

Donna was fiercely protective of Jenny and Mickey. Mickey began teaching Jenny and Donna French at the ripe age of six. Jenny led her pack into wild adventures in the garden of their house. The Doctor and Rose sat in the living room watching their family through the window. Rose grinned and the Doctor grinned back. "Fancy making another one?" he asked mischievously. Rose pretended to ponder it. "Well there are so many other people we need to name our kids after." The Doctor bent his head and kissed her lips.
"Daddy, why are you doing that to Mummy?" Mickey asked.
