I just want to thank my Awesome beta Josiane and wish you all a Happy Ship Day
Dad knows best
As Sam looked down at her newborn son, she felt so happy she could barely believe it, after everything she'd been through, she'd still managed to get to this point: lying in ISO room 1, 21 floors inside a mountain, with her husband and newborn son.
"Here you go 'Dad'" she grinned as she passed the baby to Jack and she watched as Jack's eyes never left his tiny son now cradled in his arms. Then he looked up at her, and she could almost see unshed tears in his eyes, his beautiful brown eyes that could be so expressive. His eyes locked to hers and she could see the myriad of emotions there.
"Thank you" he whispered and reached down to kiss her gently before turning his eyes back to his new son.
Then the blast door opened and Daniel, holding Grace, along with Teal'c, Vala and Cameron, all entered the room, Sam smiled up at them, and Jack turned towards them to introduce their son.
"Hey guys, come meet SG1's newest recruit" Jack said as they all crowded round the baby "Everyone, this is Jacob."
Sam smiled at him again, her thoughts dwelling on her father, and some of the last things he'd said to her. You can still have everything you want. He'd told her not to settle; to break the rules, to find happiness. It had been over 6 years since her father had given her that last piece of advice, since then she'd married Jack, rejoined SG-1, been assigned to the Pegasus galaxy, and had their first child; Grace. She smiled at her husband again, but they hadn't broken the rules: she'd left the SGC, and this time she really did have everything she wanted. She had lied when she had told her dad that she was happy, but then they'd both known that at the time. But now? Now she was married with 2 beautiful children. Married to Jack. Now she had a life with her new family, now she truly was happy.
Daniel put Grace down on the bed next to her mother and Sam hugged her daughter, as the little girl looked wide-eyed at the new baby lying in her father's arms. Then she looked up at Sam with beautiful brown eyes that match her father's. Sam kissed her daughter's forehead, and Jack passed the baby back to Sam, so it looked almost as if Grace was holding her baby brother. Sam looked around the room as all her family gathered around them and smiled.
