A/N: Every weekend Terriejane gives us a theme on Tumblr for us to write about. And because we are all different, to see everyone's version of the same theme is really interesting! So, if you want to try it, give it a go. It's great for everyone :D
There's a link on my FF page with Terrie's challenges on my Tumblr blog so you know the theme for every weekend and can participate as well. And I really hope you do!

When he woke up he noticed the faint candlelight behind him, casting shadows in the walls. Then he heard soft breaths and sighs of satisfaction and when he rolled over in bed to face her, he saw their little baby nursing at her breast.
He sat up slowly, not to disturb the pair and as soon as he did it Anna smiled at him.
Emily wasn't day old yet, but she already meant so much to them. He looked at the small girl enjoying her night feast and couldn't help but smile with tears in his eyes.
She was perfect. Bald with little eyebrows and long black lashes. Her hands and cheeks were chubby and her nose was round like a button. She had pink lips and pale skin and to him she was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. He loved her so and found funny that he couldn't live without her anymore. Shifting closer to Anna, he kissed her temple and caressed her face.
'You are wonderful.' he told her. 'How are you feeling?'
'Better than ever.'
'Isn't she the most beautiful thing?' Anna nodded teary as he kissed the top of the baby's head.
'Does it hurt?' he pointed at where Emily's mouth met her mother's skin.
'Not much…it feels amazing.' she said smiling before kissing his lips back. 'I love you more than ever, John.'
'And I love you more with every passing day.'
