Now twenty-five years old, Margaret and Awsten are happily married and parents to three adorable little children. They live in a big prairie house with their family.

Jasmine lives on the property in her own small home with her loving wife. Shilo became a world renowned author (and married to Geoff) and visits often as she can. Lia finds herself as a chef for her very own restauraunt. Jenna travels the world, dropping by every so often. Gracie has a husband and a baby on the way.

"Awsten, dear, the kids want to go read in the field. Are you coming?" Margaret asks, popping her head into Awsten's music room.

"Coming, my love," he says, putting down his notebook and joining his wife.

They walk out of their home, the children already waiting for them outside. Beth jumps up and down excitedly with the book while her older brother, Tommy, holds baby Lys in his arms. Margaret takes Lys from Tommy, holding her daughter carefully.

"Let's go, kids!"

They all cheer as Tommy and Beth take off into a run. Their favorite spot is the tree by their small pond.

"What story did you pick out?" Awsten asks.

"The one about you!" Tommy answers with a grin, showing his missing teeth.

"About us? Well, you've read that book a million times!" Margaret laughs.

"It's my favorite," Beth says softly.

"Auntie Shilo sure does write the story well. Okay then, settle down and we'll read it."

The family sit down on a blanket. The children gather round to listen as their parents read the story of how they lived when they were nineteen.

It's all the couple could've asked for. A carefree life for them and their children.

And it's all because Margaret took his hand and a leap of faith.
