AUSTRALIA — Nearly two years after one family received tragic news, the couple is celebrating the birth of their fourth child, Violet May Maslin.

Anthony Maslin and Marite Norris were devastated when they found out their three children had died aboard Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 on July 17, 2014.

Mo, 13, Evie, 11, and Otis, 9 died alongside their 68-year-old grandfather, Mariet's father, on the plane headed from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.

The Dutch Safety Board later confirmed that the plane crashed after being hit by a Russian-made Buk missile over eastern Ukraine.
