Word had traveled throughout her family that her uncle - of whom was relatively around the same age as she - was expecting his second batch of children. She had thought herself strange for having children so late in life, what with both her and Casimir's insecurities and hang-ups about becoming parents and doing a good job, but now it felt as though it was the norm? It was spring now, and with the changing weather brought new life, and new possibilities - and everywhere she looked, there were babies & pregnant Soquili. There were parents of all shapes, sizes, genders and ages; it was like the universe did not discriminate on who you or what you were. It was a beautiful sight, indeed.
All her life, Tiramisu hadn't really paid attention to the growing population, as she never quite thought herself capable of meeting that expectation, but now with three grown children out of the nest and starting their own lives - oh! She could be a grandmother. Imagine that! A small chuckle escaped her at the thought, as she knew Cas would have a heart attack if he found out he would be a grandfather, and she too was not quite sure how she'd feel. Her babies, having babies? Oh goodness. It was quite recent that her own mother, Vanilla, had announced that Bianca was expecting a little foal, so her own mother was now a great-grandmother, and oh goodness how quickly the world can shift.
She made a mental note to go and visit her brother's child, now that she was a mother of her own, as well as her uncle, if only to welcome the wonderful new foals into the world. Her family was growing, and for once in her life she wasn't shy about expressing her joy. Life was good.
