A Family Hearth's Warming

by SerenaTheMoonPony


Epilogue: A Year Later...

The following Hearth's Warming, Twilight Velvet and Night Light went to Ponyville for the holidays; as did Cadence, Shining Armor and Glimmering Jewel. Everypony agreed that it would be much easier for them to go to Ponyville, than for Twilight and Sunset to attempt to make it to Canterlot with their newborn filly.

The filly was a purple unicorn with a mane similar in style to Sunset's-- the only difference being that hers is red and pink. She was now two weeks old, and was comfortably sleeping between her mother's hooves.

"She's so cute Twilight" Cadence whispered to her sister-in-law.
"Thanks" she replied.
"She looks like the both of you, dear" Velvet smiled.
"She's so little...what's her name auntie Twilight?" Glimmering Jewel asked quietly.
"Her name is Astra" Twilight replied with a smile.
"Momma, she's so little" Glimmering Jewel whispered.
"You were little like that once too, sweetie" she smiled.
"I was?" She asked with child-like amazement. Cadence nodded.
"Would you like to hold her Shining?" Twilight asked.

Shining Armor was the only pony in the family to have not yet held the foal. Not because he didn't want to, but because his timing was way off.

"I'd love to" he said as Twilight handed him her daughter with her magic.

As Shining Armor grabbed Astra in his magic, the filly awoke, but did not cry. Instead, the little one looked up to her uncle and smile. The sight of her warmed his heart.

"Hello there Astra, I'm your uncle Shining" he smiled.

Meanwhile, Sunset and Twilight watched as their daughter got acquainted with her uncle. The unicorn mare then noticed that Twilight was standing directly under mistletoe.

"Hey Twilight" the yellow unicorn said.
"Huh?" The lavender alicorn asked her wife. Sunset then kissed Twilight passionately.
"Happy Hearth's Warming"
