"The Newest Addition To A Starfleet Family"

A Log by Lt David Johnson

(This log is dated before we lost all ability to get messages from Starfleet)

 

David almost couldn't his eyes when he stared at the video message from his wife. There she was, their first born child. David have waited so long for this day. He'd been worried for weeks about how the pregnancy had been going for Rebecca. When he had first met her, he somehow knew they were right for each other. Then, when they married it became apparent that having children was the next step. David wanted so much to be a part of the moment when it came, but he knew that the Republic and its crew came first, and meeting his newborn baby girl in person would have to wait. But for now, this was enough

 

He and Rebecca had decided to name her Julie with a middle name of Anne. They had also decide to give her a hyphenated name so that both the Johnson and Cohen line would continue on. Rebecca had thought it a perfect name for "The Newest Addition To A Starfleet Family."

 

As Dave looked at his daughter, cradled in her mothers armed he hoped she would one day follow in his footsteps and her mothers and become a Starfleet officer, just as they had followed their parents, who had followed their parents. But, he knew wouldn't be disappointed if she didn't even though Rebecca had already gone to great lengths to replicate a tiny Starfleet uniform complete with black booties and a combadge that would serve as a baby monitor.

 

David had made up his mind that as soon as the mission Republic was on ended he was going to get himself to Starbase 117, which is where Rebecca would be to re-join the Rhode Island and see his wife and his newborn. He had so many people to tell about the good news but he knew it would all have to be put on hold at least for now.
