"To my first born, Baby Pepper," she said to the cute baby in her arms. "Even at a young age we can see your go-getter attitude. Your sassy spirit and strong will always keep us on our toes."
She couldn't help but boop the baby's nose. "I can't wait to see what you'll accomplish in the future."
She kissed the baby girl and she giggled, her small hands touching her mother's face, earning her another smooch from her beloved mum.
"Mwamwa! Mwamwa!" Meatball yelled, extending his little arms to get to her as well, though sadly him, his father was really really strong and he couldn't get to her.
Unconsciously, his weight increased—easily to the weight of a teen—but Garan and his stoic face didn't show anything.
"Dadaaa! Bad dadaaa!"
Garan's eyebrows rose, and Althea went over and gently squeezed his little nose. "Ehh… don't say that, your dad will be sad."
The baby boy pursed his lips, making his chubby cheek plumper. Althea smiled and gave him a kiss as well.
