Here's another chapter. Everyone should go and thank my new beta brokennecksandbrokenhearts for helping me through my retardiness.

Chapter 4
"Alright Mr. Hale please sign here, here, initial here, and finally sign here." said the lady behind the desk.
"Thank You." Said Jasper
He was in an office outside of New York, filling out adoption papers. Jasper knew that Alice was on her way with Edward and Bella because of all the calls and text messages that were flooding into his phone. He finally just turned it off.
"Now let me show you the children." said the lady "Would you like a son or a daughter?"
He had thought a lot about this, and decider on a daughter, because Alice would love dressing her up. "I would like a daughter if possible."
"Oh yes we have many girls here. What age would you prefer?"
"As young as you have."
"We have a girl that was dropped off on our door step last week. She's about two weeks to a month old. We have yet to name her."
"She sounds perfect." he said excitedly. "May I meet her?"
"Of course she's in here. We've been calling her Ann, but it's not final. She'll probably be a hard case when she gets older, because she is literally an orphan. We don't know who left her, and we would probably have to do a blood test on every American to find out who her parents are. That means no birth certificate, so you'll have to go to court." she said babbling a little.
"So she was left alone outside your door, with no legal papers?" Jasper said trying to get his story strait.
"Yes."
"Did they at least leave a note?"
"Yes, actually. Usually there is no note, but this time we were lucky."
"May I see it?"
"Yes of course I'll go get it." she said a she backed out of the plain wood paneled room.
"Just a minute."
Jasper looked at the 20 some cribs holding children from the age of a few weeks to at least up to two years. Every child was up except for his beautiful daughter. She was sleeping peacefully.
"Now what to name you?" he mused.
"Here's the note. You may keep it if you want."
"Thank you." Jasper looked at the note it read:
Dear our darling baby girl,
Even though this breaks our hearts, we must leave you here. It is a relatively warm night so you'll be fine. We promise, when we have our lives set on the right track again, we will come back to this orphanage, and look you up and see how you are doing. We will pray every night, that the family who chooses to adopt you will take better care of you than we have in the short time that you have been in the world. No we have not abused you in any way, but we at this time of the writing of this letter, have no money to raise you on, and we are ashamed of what we have done in the past, and now we are paying for it. We love you from the bottom of our hearts, and we will think of you everyday until we die. We are so sorry, take care.
Love,
Your Mother and Father
Jasper looked up from the letter. Then looked at his daughter. "She has found a good home, and she has the most wonderful family she could ask for."
"Yes I'm sure she does, but-. Oh look at the time, I'm sure you want to get going, or you'll be stuck in traffic."
"Oh yes I'd better get going." said Jasper in a daze.
"Oh wait one more thing. What are you naming her?"
"Abigail Alice Hale." he said "Abby for short."
"Thank you we'll be over to your home in a week's time."
"Thank you I'll see you I a week." As Jasper walked out, he saw a jar collecting money for the orphanage. He put 1,000 dollars in it, because that was all he had at the moment.
Hope every one liked it. New Chapter soon, so keep an eye out.
Once there was a rabbit who had a bad habit of picking his nose with his hairy toes, and if you don't review I'll set him after you.
