Shelagh, Patrick and Angela had just arrived to Nonnatus to pick up Timothy, He had spent the day with Sister Julienne. They rang the doorbell and were greeted by Sister Evangelina.

"Look at the happy couple! Come in, Come in." She said, Smiling. "Mum Dad look what I made!" Timothy said holding his little sister who now had on a new knitted dress. "Oh Tim thats Beautiful!" Shelagh exclaimed. "Thanks mum Granny helped me make it." Timothy said. "Gwannieee!" Angela shouted, Saying her first word. "Patrick did you hear that!" Shelagh was now smiling bigger than ever. "Did she just say what I think she did?!" Sister Julienne said, face dropping. "Gwanniee, Gwannieee" Angela piped up again reaching for Julienne. Shelagh went to take a step and suddenly gasped and fell to her knees. "Shelagh!" Patrick exclaimed. "Are you okay my dear?" Sister Julienne asked. "Yes I am, but I feel a bit dizzy would you escort me to the bathroom?"

"Of course my dear."

The two made their way upstairs, Shelagh not stopping till they reached her old room.

"My dear girl what are you doing?"

"Would you fetch your bag please and a glass of water?"

"Yes, but why?"

"Please?" Shelagh pleaded again as she sat down showing a scraped knee.

"Is everything alright Sister?" Patrick asked.

"Yes she has a scraped knee but is fine."

"May I see her?" He asked, Almost begging.

"Yes when I patch her up."

Sister Julienne grabbed a glass of water and her bag, making her way back up the stairs.

"I'm not dizzy mother, I..I'm in shock." Shelagh said to Sister Julienne.

"Over what my dear?"

Shelagh reached in the bag and grabbed a pinard then laid down. She grabbed her hand and Laid it on her lower stomach and she felt a kick in return.

Sister gasped as her eyes welled up with tears.

"Is it? Oh, Shelagh!" Sister said now crying.

Shelagh handed her a pinard and she lent down and listened.

"A perfect beat, Shelagh." She moved the pinard again to the other side and gasped.

"What? What is it!" Shelagh asked.

"My dear sweet girl, There is two perfect beats not one."

"Oh mum! How can this be? I was told I wouldn't have children."

"Yes but God had a different plan didn't he." She said with a slight laugh.

"Will you fetch Patrick? Tell him I need him urgently!"

"As you wish my dear."

Sister Julienne walked downstairs and into the sitting room lowering her said to trick him and giving a slight sniffle.

"Patrick… Your wife is in her old room and she needs you, for it is urgent."

He shot up like a light eyes filling with tears as he took the stairs three at a time.

"Shelagh! What is it my love." Flying to her side.

"Close your eyes and give me your hands."

Shelagh slid his warm hands on her stomach.

"Open." She said trying not to giggle.

"Wha… You mean! Are you? Are we!" He said not able to keep his composure.

"Yes, but there is more. Its not one, but two!"

"TWO?!"

"Yes two! As in two heartbeats!"

"YAHOOOOOOOOOO!" He yelled, everyone in Nonnatus heard it. Just that moment Chummy, Peter and freddie walked through the door smiling wide as if they had a secret to tell.

"What-ho Everyone!" Chummy said. "Are the Turners here too?" She continued.

"Why yes, yes we are." Timothy said popping around the corner.

"Would you fetch your mum and dad please?" Yes one moment.

They all set in the sitting room wondering what the other was going to say.

"Well what is it?" Trixie said.
