Prologue:
"She is beautiful, isn't she?" Belle whispered to Adam.
"She really is" he answered.
The both glanced down at the newborn baby in Belle's arms. She slept soundly in her pink croquet blanket. The baby moved and cooed then fell silent again. Then there was a knock at the door.
"Come in" called Adam quietly as not to disturb the sleeping baby.
A short older woman entered the room; it was Mrs. Potts. She held her hands in front of her and peered inquisitively at the new born.
"What a beautiful girl!" she exclaimed quietly. "Have you given her a name?"
The couple looked at each other then smiled.
"It was actually difficult to conclude on the name." Belle answered. "We each favored different names, but we did come up with a name that we agreed upon."
"What is it?" asked Mrs. Potts impatiently. The castle had been waiting for months to see what the baby would be and what the name he or she would be given. She had begun to grow weary of waiting.
The couple smiled again and then Belle looked down at the baby and answered, "Sophia Alexandria"
