Elated, Lilith nodded, turning her head to see the tiny, wiggly baby in the Healer's hands. A blanket wrapped around it and a charm severed the cord, and the Healer began rubbing the baby dry.
"Mummy," she whispered, then gave GrandLily's hand a tight squeeze. "I'm a mum..."
Her attention moved to the squalling bundle in the Healer's arms. "Is it a boy? Or a girl?" She hadn't wanted to know all this time, but she couldn't wait another moment.
"You have a beautiful daughter..." She moved closer and arranged the covers a bit, then laid a softly cooing bundle into Lilith's arms.
