Disclaimer: I don't own Frasier
((When Daisy Rose, Niles and Daphine's firstborn, is diagnosed with cancer at the age of 3 and a half everyone learns to appreciate the value of life and how fleeting it is. Will Daisy survive.))
"Can you believe it," Daphine said smiling, "It's raining."
"You really like rain," Fraiser said, "To me it's a pain."
"When I was a girl," Daphine said, "Rain meant puddles and laughter."
"Oh Daphine that sounds wonderful," Niles said.
"Oh it was," Daphine said, "m'brothers and I would have so much fun jumping and splashing."
Niles laughed.
"So," Fraiser asked, "Have you chosen a name for the baby?"
Niles nodded.
"We're stuck between Harry and Joel."
"Niles you do realize it could be a girl right?"
Niles froze.
"Well I suppose I never considered that possibility," he said.
"Well if it is a girl I'd like to call her Daisy Rose," Daphine said.
"Daisy Rose; I love it," Niles said.
"I must admit that's a beautiful name," Fraiser said, "But isn't it a bit flowery?"
"Well Daisy is for m'best friend back in Wales," Daphine explained, "She died of brain cancer many years ago. I want to honor her memory. Rose, well that's for your mum. It was your mum's middle name and I want to honor her too. She was the reason you were born after all."
"Well I had something to do with it too," Martin said a smile dancing on his face.
"Oh Niles if you don't mind I want to get some pizza now," Daphine said.
"Of course," Niles replied, "But suppose we order it. You're pregnant and I don't want you to have to ride in the car all the way. It can get very uncomfortable."
"That's sweet of you love," Daphine said laughing. She was only four months along. She was hardly showing at all.
