p style="margin: 1em 0px 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;""She's fine angel, her nappie is dry, she must be getting hungry."

p style="margin: 1em 0px 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;""Oh my poor Little One, come here love…" Aziraphale murmured as Crowley placed Eden into his waiting arms.

p style="margin: 1em 0px 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;""I think it was much too soon to move you into the nursery Eden." Aziraphale said to the infant who was sucking her tiny thumb./p
p style="margin: 1em 0px 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;""Tracey says that the sooner we get her used to the crib the better!" Crowley murmured, his face buried into his pillow./p
p style="margin: 1em 0px 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;""Maybe just a couple more nights with the bassinet dear?" Aziraphale asked hopefully./p

p style="margin: 1em 0px 0px; color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;""Okay angel." Crowley replied with a tired smile as he scooted closer to Aziraphale and stroked Eden's soft face with a gentle finger./p
