"Turquoise?" Lapis calls walking around the backyard, subsequent giggles can be heard in the distance, "Turquoise Lazuli-Ivy?" Lapis calls again peeking around the tree that her daughter was hiding behind, "Ha! I found you!" Turquoise squeals with delight. Lapis gathers her little girl in her arms tickling her sides before plopping on the grass.
"Mommy! Look at the clouds!" Turquoise says, pointing her finger where big fluffy clouds coast across the sky.
"What are you girls doing out here?" Peridot asks coming out of the house with lemonades for everyone.
"Mama!" Turquoise screams and runs to hug Peridot's legs when she sees her. Peridot almost loses her balance, she places her hand on top of her daughter's head and ruffles her hair. Lapis gets up to kiss her wife on the lips gratefully taking the lemonade from her.
"Miss Turquoise was showing me a cloud that looks like a dinosaur before she saw you, mama," Lapis says reaching down to ruffle the young girl's hair again. Turquoise takes a few sips of lemonade before running off to play again. Peridot wraps an arm around Lapis. Lapis lays her head on Peridot's shoulder, they watch their daughter as she runs around the yard, Pumpkin follows suit, the sun setting slowly in the distance.
What a miracle sperm donors can be.
