We're Home – Part 5 By: Snowwhite "Hello dear" Molly greeted Melanie as she walked into the kitchen, concentrating souly on balancing the dishes she carried in her small hands "Is your mummy up?" "Yes" Melanie answered; tongue hanging out as she carefully placed the dishes on the counter. Job done she wiped her hands on her pajamas and grinned triumphantly at her Grandmother "She's in the bath" Molly smiled "Good, that gives us some time to ourselves then doesn't it" Melanie grinned as Molly took her hand and lead her into he library "You know dear, you were nearly born in this room" Melanie's eyes widened "Wasn't I born in a hos-pi-tal" She asked, sounding out the big word "Oh yes, but only just" Molly smiled and sitting down reached out to let Melanie settle on her knee "Do you want to hear the story?" Melanie nodded in excitement. "You're Mummy went into labor on your cousin Martha's forth birthday. You were three months early, and you're aunty Lizzie and Katrina were here as well." "What happened?" Melanie asked, taking in the whole thing with enthusiasm "A helicopter had to come from Glasgow to take you're mummy and daddy to the special children's hospital. And you were born there, but you were only very tiny, you even wore dolls clothing" Melanie's eyes widened in amazement "Really" "Really" a voice piped up from behind them, and they both turned to see Lexie standing in the doorway "And I should know" Melanie smiled and jumping off Molly's lap ran to her mother "Is it all true Mummy? Is that really what happened?" Lexie gathered her up in her arms and grinned, admiring the energetic five year old her daughter had grown into "It most certainly is."
