The smile on Bella’s face couldn’t be any wider at the moment. She placed the photograph that had been taken only days ago, of Isa holding Eryn and Bella with Mya, in a page of the small scrapbook. Bella’s new nephew, Anthony, was such a cutie. The wisps of blond hair that covered his little head, those tiny little lips. He couldn’t be more perfect. Bella was proud of Isa. She’d done well. She’d achieved a dream that Bella knew she’d had for such a long time. Gabe looked incredibly happy as well. Bella knew that little guy already had his father wrapped around his little fingers.
“Anthony Kaden…” Bella kept repeating the name. She was honoured that her nephew’s middle name was derived from hers. Isa had always enjoyed calling Bella by her full name: Isabella Kaylee (néé Barthel). She was sure that little Tony will hear his entire name quite often too. ~~ Later that day, as Bella held Tony in her arms, she whispered many promises to him. “We might live continents apart, but I promise I’m going to spoil you even from the distance. When you’re old enough, make sure you nag your mummy and daddy to bring you to Ithemba, okay? I’m not sure if they’ll let you play with the lions and cheetahs, but… we’ll see, hmm? One thing I know for sure is that your Aunty Bella and Uncle Nathan love you very much. Your cousins Eryn and Mya don’t quite understand yet, but I’m sure they’ll love you too. They’ll probably drive you crazy someday.” She chuckled. “Until then… don’t drive your mum and dad too crazy okay?”
