Christmas 1994
Sheldon and Henry brought an eight month old Tina down stairs to open her gifts. They realized very quickly that Tina was a special little girl. She had a certain way about her that made everyone just drool over her. A smiley happy baby they knew she was destined for something great.
That year both of their families were coming to their house for the holiday. So once Tina had opened the mound of gifts from Santa they got the little girl ready. After being put in a little reindeer suit with a tutu attached to it the men began to cook.
Henry's older sister Anna was the first to arrive with her husband Greg and their four kids including her twins only six months older than Tina. Sheldon's mother and step father arrived next. His mother Frannie immediately taking Tina and codling her. Soon after henry's mom, dad, and grandmother arrived. The woman taking turns fawning over Tina. A bit later Henry's younger sister Alison came with her young son and daughter. Last to come was Sheldon's dad, step mom, two young half-sisters, his twin sister, and her family.
In total there was henry's two sisters, his brother in law, mom, dad, and grandmother. His sisters combined having six kids. The six kids ranging from fourteen months to six years old. Sheldon had his parents, each of his step parents, his two half-sisters ages eight and three, his twin sister and her husband and sons who were as three.
The house was filled with people and everyone was fawning over Tina. She just smiled and giggled at the attention cooing frequently. Soon she fell asleep in her great-grandmothers arms. Sheldon and Henry were over talking to Henry's oldest sister when Sheldon's oldest half sister Katy came over and told them frantically that Tina was turning blue.
The family paced the hallway of the pediatric ward of the hospital. Nobody had any idea what had happened. Sheldon and Henry were frantic. Tina was everything to them. Eventually the nurse came out and explained that she had an infection in her lungs and that they young girl would be perfectly fine.
