To a parent, to see your child succeed is and should be the best feeling in the world. These two moms can't help but engrave all of their kids achievements, either by photograph, video or simply in their memories. For Cheryl, to give her twins everything they need and give them as much attention as she can is her main goal, perhaps that being why Victoria grew to be such a momma's girl. Toni made sure to protect them at all costs. She usually was the one who took the adult forks away from their hands and baby-proofed the whole house when the babies started to adventure and stand up or crawl.

When the twins were around one year old they started to stand up with the help of the cribs they slept in. Jason liked to stick his arms up to get picked up making him fall back on the messy mattress. Vicky on the other end always waited for Cheryl to come reach for her. After their breakfast, the couple would sit on the floor with them for at least half an hour, helping them stand up and try to walk. Jason was the first one to do so.

One morning, after the same morning routine had happened but Victoria was making a fuss to eat, Jason finished first and so, was let out of his high chair. Toni was cleaning up his plate, Jason crawling next to her, while Cheryl was trying the persuade the little girl to eat. Suddenly, Jason holds onto one of the cupboard handles and stands up. Toni smiles at him, not making a huge deal out of it because he had done it before. After standing up for a whole minute, he takes his first few steps on the way to Toni.

''Oh my god! Jason! Come here!'' Toni quickly notices and gets her phone, recording the floppy steps until the baby fell backwards and laughed.

''Toni?'' Cheryl got up with Vicky's plate, who had finally finish eating.

''Momma look!'' Toni is crying, letting Cheryl see the video of their baby boy. Cheryl cries instantly and picks Jason up, cuddling him against her neck.

''Our babies are growing so fast!'' Cheryl cries.

Vicky's first steps were about a week later. Cheryl and her were playing in the garden, Toni was comforting the walking Jason who had fallen.

''Jay Jay got a little boo-boo, poor baby.'' Cheryl explains to the little girl. She looks at her brother and gets up, leaning herself against the grown-up's leg. She stumbles her way to Jason, falling next to him and nudging her head against him, making him mumble sounds, as a thank you. Meanwhile the tall redhead and pink haired woman are staring at each other, tears in their eyes.

From then on, many knee bruises happened, the twins always falling in the garden for not lifting their feet enough, or crashing against each other inside the house, earning a sore bum for falling on the wood.

Their first words were with the presence of Nana Rose. Inside the house, everyone's names were pretty much replaced. Cheryl was momma, Toni was mommy, Jason was Jay Jay, Victoria was Vicky and Nana Rose was just Nana. Perhaps because the elder Blossom was constantly calling for Cheryl, the word ''momma'' was stuck on the ginger boy's head, that becoming his first word. With Victoria it was also a word she heard a lot, since she insisted that the book that was read to her as a bedtime story would be about turning off the lights, that becoming her first word, light. Soon enough, mumbles became conversations and everything became a lot easier for the parents, now that they hadn't to guess what their kids wanted.

Something adorable to see was when they started to learn bad words, specially one time when the family of four was hanging out with Sweet Pea and Veronica, and the tall man and Toni were playing a racing game on some console, and Cheryl and Veronica were entertaining the twins. When the pink haired mom kicks uncle Pea's ass, he growls a loud ''Fuck!'', making Toni laughed. As it was normal for two year olds to do, Jason decided that, since it made mommy laugh, he should do it too. With his little feet he runs to playing friends, placing himself in front of the Tv and repeating the word in the most sweet way the adults had ever seen. Sweet Pea falls on the floor laughing and Toni is trying to scold her son but it is hard because she wanted to laugh at how cute that was. Cheryl and Veronica just shook their head.

''Well done Sweets! You have corrupted our children!'' Cheryl rolls her eyes. Sweet Pea apologized, explaining to the giggling little boy that he couldn't say that kind of stuff yet and to give his moms a hug and a kiss as an apologize, which he happily did.

At three years old, Victoria arrived to a rebellious phase. She insisted in not eating her vegetables or not sharing her toys with her brother. It was the first time Cheryl and Toni had seen her misbehaving so much and they didn't exactly understand why or what to do. So they called Jughead and Betty, asking if Lili had ever done anything like this.

''Oh yeah, all the time. You are lucky she isn't throwing the food to the ceiling or running off to the yard naked. '' Jughead explained. Toni and Cheryl looked at each other confused on what to do.

''So what did you do then?'' Toni questioned.

''I tried to ask why she was acting like that and she said it was because daddy and mommy spent too much time on their computer and not enough time with her like we used to. I think that she was just used to have a lot of attention. We tried to balance things out so whenever she was bad we would put her in a time out.'' Betty smiled at the thought of her own little girl being so close to her parents.

Next time Victoria decided to act up, jumping on a puddle and getting herself dirty, after Cheryl had warned her to specifically not do it, she took her inside by the hand, a little tight to prove she was upset at the behaviour.

''Missy, you better drop that attitude.'' Cheryl tried, tapping her foot on the floor. The little girl looked at her with a big pout. ''Why are you doing this Vicky? Are you upset at mommy and I'' Cheryl took a deep breath, lowering herself to her daughter's height.

''No! I just.. I is scared you will give Jason more love than to me!'' Vicky stomped her foot. So after all she was just a little over spoiled and insecure.

''Darling, mommy and I will always love you and Jay-Jay equally! We give you different type of attention because you guys are different people. Jason has always liked to play dolls with mommy, and you have always liked to come cuddle momma after breakfast. Its our thing!'' Cheryl tried to explain, giving a warm smile.

''Maybe I want all of us to cuddle! And play dolls!'' The girl screamed in tears. Cheryl was a little taken back by the behaviour, but hugged her daughter anyways.

''Shh baby girl, it is okay.'' The redhead woman looked outside and noticed Toni gazing at her two girls, Cheryl gesturing for her to get to them and bring Jason. When the other two family members arrived, Cheryl picked Vicky up.

''So, guys. I think we need a little family reunion.'' Cheryl started, Victoria cuddling up against her neck.

''What's wrong momma?'' Jason asks, reaching his arms up for Toni to pick him up too.

''Well, Vicky isn't feeling very well because she is scared that mommy and I won't love her as much as we love you. Right honey?'' Victoria nods.

''That is nonsense baby we love you two the same!'' Toni quickly said, moving closer to her partner.

''See? I think it would be a good idea for us to do different activities, maybe go to the park more often so we can all spend time together, equally, spending the same amount of time with each other. How does that sound, little one?'' Cheryl bounces Vicky a little bit and she smiles and nods yes in response.

''Guys now that you are growing up we are gonna have to have some rules. Of course we always want you to tell us if something is wrong, but if you do that by misbehaving we are going to start to use time outs. So you can put your ideas in place and we can calmly talk about it. Okay?'' Toni explains with a soft voice. This wasn't a threat, it was an explanation of the slow and slight changes that had to be done while they got older.

Cheryl and Toni aren't the perfect parents. Jason pulled a few fusses on them, especially when Nana Rose parted away. Clearly the loss had left an impression on him but that couldn't always be a justification for him to kick the furniture. And Victoria also got in real trouble when she decided to redecorate her room with sharpies on the walls.

Doing things wrong was a normal thing, but it would be much worse when they got to teens and decided to join the Serpents.
