And as Pippa cradled her newborn, as he gathered her into his arms, as he held her close, and as they felt this new little life between them, he accepted what he knew for sure.

‘We have the perfect family.’

‘It might get bigger,’ Pippa whispered, dazed.

He kissed her again and he smiled and looked up at the people around them.

‘A bigger family sounds great to me,’ he told her. ‘Just as long as you stay at its heart. My Pippa. My love. My wife.’
