"Babe it's going to be okay."
Erica paced around the bedroom holding a now two month old Lucy in her arms, while Connor sat on the edge of the bed, tying the laces of his tennis shoes. It was Erica's first day back from maternity leave, and it was safe to say she was nervous. Although she was a ball of nerves, her only consolation was that Priscilla and Bobby were watching Lucy.
Erica nodded as she held her daughter close in her arms, then replied, "I know. I'm just going to miss her so much. I love her so much and I don't want her to think I don't love her any less, just because I'm going back to work." she said as she placed her daughter in the baby carrier
Connor placed his hands on the brunette's shoulder, and gently reassured, "Sweetheaft, Lucy knows we love her. But it will be good for you to go back to work." he said as he grabbed the diaper bag, while Erica grabbed prepared breastmilk from the fridge and freezer
"I know, I just love her so much." Erica said as she placed the bottle in her daughter's diaper bag.
"I know you do honey." Connor said as they walked out the door of the condo, and locked the door behind them, then got on the elevator. "I love her too, but your mom and dad will take care of her, plus your aunts and uncles will be there." he added as the elevator reached the ground floor
Erica smiled as the two stepped off of the elevator. "I know. Who wouldn't love them. Besides, since uncle Dutch got released, he's been spending a lot of time with my dad at the church, I guess trying to redeem himself."
"The same Dutch who used to tease your dad for being a pastor?" Connor teased
Erica chuckled in reply. "That's the one."
"Good morning Dr. Brown and Dr. Rhodes, how are you two and the beautiful baby?" Mauricio asked
"Morning Mauricio." Erica smiled as she gave him a one armed embrace. "How was your trip to Puerto Rico? Did you have a good time?"
"It was great, my wife and I got to see our family, and of course it was hard to say goodbye." Mauricio said, then grabbed a rattle with a pink ribbon around it from his suit pocket. "This is from my wife and I, we're sorry we weren't back when little Lucy here made her appearance in the world, but she is certainly a beautiful baby."
"Thank you so much." Erica smiled as she graciously accepted the rattle, and placed it in her daughter's baby carrier.
"Thank you so much." Connor smiled
"Of course, see you both later." Mauricio smiled at the couple, then at the beautiful baby in the carrier. "Bye niñita."
Erica and Connor walked out the double doors of the condo building, then out to the parking lot and placed Lucy's baby carrier in the back seat. The couple got in the front seat, and buckled their seatbelts, and Connor put the keys in the ignition, then drove towards Bobby and Priscilla's.
