One of the girls introduced herself as Rocky's girlfriend, and there was also another girl she shook hands with and she had no clue who that was at all. She barely caught her name.. was it Sophia?

Anyway,

Rydel's kids seemed a bit unsure to approach her, so Ross took Super into his arms, approached Laura instead.

"You remember this one Sups?" Ross questioned, pointing at Laura.

She smiled at the little toddler, rolling her eyes at Ross.

"I really doubt it. It's been a few months huh?" she questioned "Did you get cuter or what? Look at those hair?"

"He's got Ross' whole head of hair I swear!" Rydel yelled out from her seat.

She laughed.

"Laura." Ross turned to Super, trying to teach him how to say her name.

He said a few words here and there now, but the pronunciation wasn't the greatest.

Super only stared at Laura with this stunned look, that made her laugh.

"Laura." Ross repeated, grinning.

"Laww.." Super repeated, pointing at Laura.

"Good enough bud." he pat his back, making Laura giggle.

"I think Sweetie knows you better." Rocky smiled, as the little girl reached out to grab onto her shirt.

"Oh my." Laura turned around, now just noticing the little girl.

Rydel had styled her blonde hair in pigtails, and she was practically dressed like strawberry shortcake "You're so flippin' cute! So grown! The last time I saw you you were a baby. Oh they grow so fast."

She felt like that one strange relative that commented that the last time they saw you was in diapers. It was weird how life circled like that.

"They do" Rocky nodded, now giving into Sweetie's request and handing her to Laura.

"You have your entire mother's face." Laura stared at her, as she held her on her hip.

Sweetie blabbed on, as Rydel came up to her, now holding her third kid.

"Storm?" Laura questioned, the second she saw the little boy.

Her hand flew to her face to cover her eyes- this was not okay. The last time she'd seen Storm he'd been a newborn, and Rydel was holding onto a full on big baby.

"What the heck!" she cried, letting her hand fall as Rydel laughed.

"This is getting a bit much." Ross showed up behind her, grabbing Sweetie from her arms, noticing Laura was on the verge of tears, despite the smile on her face.

She had a very sweet soul, and seeing all the kids one by one like that had affected her in a quite emotional way.

For her, or the rest of them- it hadn't been so long. For the kids, it had been so many life stages.
