They had only been married for 5 months, not a long time really. But the boys had grown up with 'aunty Emmy' by their side basically their whole life. When they made their relationship official Henry was around 8 and Michael around 2 years old. Just a little too young to understand what exactly was going on but they slowly adjusted to having Emily around more.

Well maybe adjusted isn't the right word because they loved having Emily around. Whenever she wasn't there the blonde mother would be filled with questions about 'Emmy's' whereabouts. That's around when they dropped the 'aunty' just after JJ had a long conversation with them about what their relationship meant. 

She and the boys got along so well. At first, the older agent was nervous, she thought she would mess up the boys, confuse them. But that was just her insecurities speaking and JJ made sure Emily knew just how much she trusted her with her kids

On that early Sunday morning in May, the sun had just begun to rise, still too early for any of them to be remotely awake. But Henry like his mother was a morning person and had woken up his brother for a Mother day surprise. Still, only 11 years old, he knew how to fend for himself, he was quite mature for his age. So that morning he decided what better way to surprise his mom's by making sure Emily never forgot this day.

Bringing his 5-year-old brother to the kitchen, and sitting him down on the counter Henry began preparing the food as Micheal drew some cute cards. Making some toast with butter and orange juice. he lifted Micheal from the counter, placing him on the ground and signed the final letters on their cards. 

Making their way to their mother's room, the house was silent except for the patter of little Micheal's feet in the wooden hallway. Knocking on the door softly they waited for a response.

"It's so earlyyy" Emily complained burying further into the fluffy pillows as JJ placed a soft kiss on her raven dark hair.

"come in" JJ ushered the boys in, and it took no time for the chaos to start

"HAPPY MOMS DAY" Micheal screamed jumping on the bed, as Henry slowly carried over a tray with the food. Sitting up the two women quickly jumped awake at the sight. 

Henry settled in the bed hugging the two older women as he whispered something into Micheal's ear who was currently settled on JJ's lap. The young boy's eyes shot awake and he sprinted out of the room leaving the two women confused 

"Did you make all this?" JJ asked lovingly as Henry nodded 

"Look at you, all grown up, You're already a better cook than me!" Emily teased ruffling his hair 

"No I can't allow it, stop growing" JJ grabbed the boy planting kisses on his blonde hair. And that's when Micheal ran in with 2 white roses, and two little cards in his hands. Going over to the side of the bed, JJ picked him up and placed him on the bed where the other three were situated. 

"This one is for you and this one for you!" Micheal said handing each woman their flower and card

"For me???" Emily questioned and JJ smiled tears prickling her eyes, seeing how much the boys cared for Emily. The boys nodded in response as the women read the cards

For JJ's it was a simple white card with hearts covering the front and back, in the middle, it read 

"Happy Mother's Day Mommy! we love you so so so much!" With scribbles from who she guessed to be Micheal in various colour crayons.  On the other side, a small drawn image of the 4 of them next to a big house. At the bottom 2 different messy signatures from the boys

Emily's card looked the same from the front but in the middle, it read "Happy Mother's Day Mama! We are SO HAPPY to have you as our Mama! Love you so so so so much!" Emily absolutely could not believe it. She had dreamed of this day but she wasn't expecting it to ever happen. The boy's considered her as their mom and it was a feeling no words could possibly describe. Tears left her eyes before she could possibly stop them. Looking up at her family all staring at her she was left speechless. But before she could say anything Micheal jumped on her lap

"Do you like it?" He asked excitedly 

"I love it," She said hugging him so tight as tears filled her face 

JJ left a little confused as to what was going on, picked up Emily's card and read it, leaving her completely speechless as well and probably the happiest she had ever been. Not even her wedding could outdo this simple beautiful moment. Grabbing Henry, she pulled him in for a very tight hug leaving him breathless, whispering a quiet "thank you" in his year as he pulled back and nodded. 

Henry went and hugged Emily as well, almost not letting go, so incredibly happy at his brunette mother's reaction.

"I love you guys, so much," Emily said through tears, still processing 

"Love you, Mama," JJ said pressing a kiss to her cheek. 

"CAN WE HAVE PANCAKES??" Micheal screamed suddenly, pulling everyone out of their previous conversation. 

"Sure baby, anything for my favourite, boys," Emily said getting up and picking up the youngest blonde and settling him on her hip.

"Thank you, Mama," He said burying his small face in her neck. Her breath hitched again hearing the words.  

Moments later Emily was standing in the kitchen making pancakes and the boys sat around the kitchen table playing with toys, distracting her from her thoughts she felt JJ's strong arms wrap around her waist and her chin coming to rest on her shoulder.

"How do you feel?" JJ whispered in her ear, trying to not talk loud enough for the boys to her

"Like this is possibly the best day of my entire life," Emily said looking back at her placing a soft kiss on her lips

"GROSS" The boys screamed from the dinner table at the sight of them kissing. The two just laughed in each other's arms at the response. 

"I love you all so much," Emily said, now facing JJ

"and we love you so so so so much" JJ joked mimicking the card. As they placed the pancakes on the table for them to all eat together. It took no time for the boys to adjust to calling Emily "Mama!" and they did it whenever possible, especially when Emily picked them up from school, screaming it for the whole world to know how proud they were to have Emily as their Mom.
