Molly can hear him talking to Rosie from the kitchen and it fills her with such warmth. She imagines "babysitter" is another one of those roles that Sherlock assumed most of his life he would never embody. Really, it's clear that the man has so much love to give and he's been denying himself the opportunity to give it.
She goes about washing out the bottle and then puts the kettle on for tea before returning to the sitting room just to watch them. Sherlock is holding Rosie up so her feet are pressing into his thighs and still talking to her. A man with a baby, being good with a baby has got to be one of the sexiest things. She knows that feeling is purely evolutionary in nature, but it doesn't change the fact that the sight of Sherlock with Rosie makes her biological clock go into alarm mode.
It won't be too much longer before Rosie will need to go down for her afternoon nap and then soon after that John should be home.
