"Hey honey, how was your day?" Lena asked after her and Stef stopped kissing. Stef put an arm around Lenas shoulders and pulled her into her so that they could cuddle. Lena rested her head on Stefs chest, waiting for her wife to answer.
"Exhausting but fun yours?" Stef finally said as she ran a hand up and down Lenas side.
"Relaxing and peaceful, the girls seem better now, not so tense. It was definitely what we needed." Lena said. Stef nodded. The girls definitely needed the day together and she was glad they were feeling a bit better.
"Alright im going to go pick up little miss and then we can do the date night talk." Stef said as she looked at the time.
"Alright sounds like a plan." Lena sighed out as she lifted her head from her wifes chest and they stood up together. Placing a kiss to Lenas lips, Stef grabbed her keys and headed out the front door.

"Mama.. mama... mama." Rylans voice floated through the house as she entered the kitchen. Rylan was excited to have gone to her friends house to play, she loved her new friends but she did miss her moms a lot.
Lena was sitting at the kitchen table doing some paperwork when Rylans voice came through the door. Lena smiled and stood up from the table and crouched down just as a small blonde crashed into her legs. Lena picked Rylan up and set her on her hip before placing a big kiss to her temple.
"Hey baby girl, did you have fun with Chris and Hannah?" Lena finally said as she sat back down on the chair she had been before, setting Rylan on her lap so that she could see the little girls face. She couldn't see Stef, so she was probably still taking her shoes off.
"Yep, we did painting and played soccer and then we collected bugs but Hannahs mommy made us put them back so they can go back to their families." Rylan explained just as Stef came into the kitchen and placed a kiss on Lenas cheek before resting her back against the kitchen counter and looking at her daughter and wife.
"Sounds like you had a busy day." Lena smiled and waited for her daughter to continue talking, pushing a bit of her blonde hair behind her ear. Stef smiled and chuckled aswell, she had heard the same story on the way home and now her wife was listening to it.
"Oh it really was busy, but fun...but guess what Mama?" Lena chuckled but raised an eyebrow at the question.
"What?"
"I didn't have a nap, I was tired thought but I kept playing. Also I wasn't so scared after a bit, but I did miss you and mommy." Rylan was proud of herself. Lena and Stef could see it written on her face.
"I missed you too, but at least you had fun." Lena said before placing another kiss on Rylans temple.
"I did." Rylan bobbing her head up and down to show her excitement before resting her head against her mamas shoulder and wrapping her arms around her mamas neck. She could see her mom looking at her from her Mamas shoulder and she smiled.
Lena was loving the cuddly moment with her baby girl. She loved her cuddles from any of the kids but it was less frequent with the older kids.
"Mama." Rylan suddenly spoke after a few minutes of silence. She had been watching her Mom make a coffee as she played with a few pieces of her Mamas hair. Lena and Stef could tell the little girl was getting tired, her excitement slowly going.
"Yes Rylan?" Lena whispered, running her hand up and down the little girls back.
"Im hungry." Rylan mumbled into her Mamas neck, though her moms had heard her. Stef and Lena both chuckle. Both Jesus and Rylan were always hungry. They loved their food. Lena set Rylan onto the floor before speaking to the little girl.
"Ok ill get dinner sorted soon, how about you have an apple or banana and then go round the others up and tell them to sit on the couch. Your mom and I need to talk to you all." Rylan nodded before she gave a frown.
"Are we in trouble?" Rylan hesitated before asking this. She hoped that they weren't sending her away. Stef and Lena could both see the hesitation on the little girls face. Lena got off the chair and knelt infront of Rylan, grabbing both her hands in her own.
"No baby girl, no one is in trouble." Rylan looked from her Mom to her Mama, trying to see if they were lying. Sensing nothing she nodded. Stef set about cutting an apple up for Rylan so it would keep her happy and satisfied until dinner.
"Ok." Rylan finally said.
"Mama?" No matter how may times Lena heard that word, she always felt her heart leap. She now knows that mommy, mom and Mama were her favourite words and she would never tire of hearing them.
"Yes baby?" Wondering what the little girl was going to ask for now. Lena chuckled along with Stef at Rylans face.
Rylan was pushing her lips together in a kissing motion and tapping her lips. Lena chuckled, it was cute.
"Does my baby girl want a kiss?" Lena asked, knowing exactly that is what her daughter is asking for. Rylan nodded.
"Well ok then." Lena gave her daughter a peck on the lips and then one on her temple. Rylan smiled.
"Thanks Mama...Thanks mommy." Rylan said walking over to grab the plate her mom was holding out. Rylan smiled and grabbed the plate before turning away to head up the stairs.
"Hey, what about this mom? …...Lay one on me." Rylan turned around and smiled. She put her plate on the table and walked over to her mom and raised her hands. Stef immediately picked the little girl up and set her on her hip.
"ok Mommy." Rylan said before planting a peck on Stefs lips and then waiting for Stef to put her down. Stef smirked and then winked at Lena.
"That wasn't a kiss, this is a kiss." Stef explained as she began to place kisses all over Rylans face, the little blonde giggling and squirming to get out of her moms arms. Lena smiling at how cute the moment is.
"Mommy stop." Rylan managed to get out during her giggles. Stef finally stopped but planted a final kiss on the little girls temple before setting her on the floor.
"Ok love you, go get your brothers and sisters." Stef smiled down at her little girl.
"Ok love you too." Rylan called over her shoulder as she grabbed her plate of sliced apple and headed up the stairs.
"That really annoys and pains me." Lena said as she took her seat again at the table. Stef coming behind her and placing her hands on Lenas shoulders and slowly massaging them.
"What does love?" Lena sighed as Stef was loosening her sore shoulders.
"How kids in the system always ask if they are in trouble when a foster parent wishes to speak to them." Stef nodded to herself. It was true.
"Its always going to be like that love with Foster kids. Foster kids are always going to think like that until they are finally out of the system, lets just hope that once Rylan is officially adopted she wont be like that." Stef explained. Lena gave another sigh.
"I know, it still hurts, I wish she wouldn't think that they were in trouble whenever we need to speak to them."
"Its embedded in their minds, the older kids have slowly stopped thinking like that. In time Rylan will too." Stef explained. It was true. Mariana and Jesus finally did and then Callie and Jude finally did. Time will tell with Rylan, first the adoption had to go through. They needed their baby out of the system.
"I know." Stef came around and pulled Lena off of the seat and wrapped her in a big hug. Lena sighed into the hug and placed her face in the crook of Stefs neck and breathed in before looking up at Stef and placing a kiss on her cheek and then her lips.
"Alright, lets go talk to the kids." With one final kiss, the two moms walked into the living room.

"So mama and I are going on our date tomorrow night and then we will be back Sunday morning. Now while we are gone, Callie and Brandon are in charge. No parties, no nothing, is that understood?" Stef asked with a raised eyebrow as she looked at her kids.
Brandon and Jesus on the two arm chairs. Jude, Mariana and Callie on the sofa with Rylan sitting on Callies lap. Leaving both moms to sit on the coffee table, a spot where they could see all of the kids.
"Yep, yes, yeah." Came the voices of 5 of the 6 kids. Lena and Stef looked at Rylan, after not hearing the little blondes voice. Rylan was frowning in confusion.
" Why are you going on a date?" Rylan asked just before Stef could ask the little blonde how she was feeling about it. Stef smiled at how innocent her question was.
"Cause sometimes people who are married or dating need to spend some time together." Stef explained the best she could to the 6 year old.
"Can I come?" Rylan tilted her head to the side as she looked form one mom to the other.
"What moms are saying is that they want to go to dinner to be with each other, no kids." Jesus explained. It was better to get it out in the open then stall for so long and so he did.
"Oh." Rylan put her head down and sighed.
"Is that alright baby girl?" Lena asked as she slid off of the coffee table to kneel in front of Rylan.
"You come back right?" Rylan hesitantly asked. Looking deeply into Lenas eyes. Lena smiled a big smile and nodded.
"Of course we will come back, we can't leave you here all by yourselves forever. We are just going for the night. Is that alright?" Rylan looked at her moms before looking around the room at her brothers and sisters. They weren't worried about the moms going on the date, so why should she.
"Ok." Rylan finally said. The moms letting out sighs of relief before Lena pulled Rylan off of Callies lap and into her own for a big hug. Rylan buried her face in her Mamas neck and breathed in her scent. Hopefully she would be ok for one night, hopefully.
"Good. Now whos hungry?" Stef smiled at her wife and daughter before asking. Rylans head shot up off of Lenas neck, her head bobbing up and down causing the family to chuckle. She was always hungry like Jesus.
"Noodles?" Rylan asked looking at her Mom, well more like pleading.
"Rylan wants noodles, so what about Chinese?" Stef asked the family. Each nodding after thinking about it for a second.
"Everyone for Chinese?" Stef asked again looking around, hoping for verbal answers this time.
"Yeah." Came everyone's voices.
"Chinese it is." Stef said as she stood from the coffee table and went to place the usual order.

"Im so tired." Stef said walking in into the room and flopping onto the bed after locking up downstairs and checking on the kids who were all finally asleep.
"Me too, but at least we had fun." Lena commented from her spot on the chair next to the bed where she was putting on her moisturiser
"Yeah we sure did." Stef mumbled, rolling over onto her stomach but had her head facing her wife.
"So mari and Callie asked me about dating today." Lena decided that they should talk about it now and when she said this Stef leant up on her elbow and gave Lena a raised eyebrow.
"Really?"
"Yeah they asked me if they could go on a double date." Lena continued to put her moisturiser on her legs while looking at Stef for her reaction. Stef just squinted and looked at her wife for any sighs to give her a hint to her next question.
"What did you say?"
"I told them it should be fine but I would talk with you first before giving them a proper answer." Stef nodded. She still needed more information but she was glad Lena hadn't said yes straight away.
"Hmmmm, who with?" She knew Mariana and Callie had boyfriends, she just needed to make sure.
"Wyatt and Matt." Lena said as she placed the bottle of moisturiser on the bedside table and then slid into the bed as Stef got under the covers aswell.
"I don't know lena." Lena could understand Stefs hesitancy. Callie and Mariana where her babies, and she didn't want them hurt. It was time to face the reality that they weren't children any more, they were almost adults.
"Think about it honey, they will be together and not alone with the boys individually. They will be safe, the boys are also good boys Stef. Even you can agree on that." Lena explained, moving her head to Stefs pillow so the both of them were facing each other.
"I do, they are good boys. it...its just that they are my babies." Stef whispered as she brought her hand up to curl a few strands of Lenas hair. She knew Mariana loved to play with Lenas hair and so does Rylan, she had to admit it was relaxing.
"Honey, you have to let them grow up, they need this." Stef sighed. Lena was right.
"I know but they are my babies, is it so wrong for me wanting them to stay young forever?" Lena chuckled and leant over placing a kiss to Stefs temple.
"I think the same way honey. But they have to leave us sometime. They need to find themselves and become amazing adults." Lena added another point. She was getting through to her wife, she knew because Stef was sighing each time.
"I know...they can go, but not this weekend, maybe next weekend and they run the plans of the date through us first." Stef got out as Lena nodded.
"Ok, I told them that. They said When we give them the ok they will tell matt and Wyatt and then the boys will arrange everything and tell the girls so the girls can tell us." Lena explained. Stef listened. Her wife was always a step a head like this and she loved that her wife was so organised.
"Ok... I still don't like them growing up." Stef grumble. Lena laughed at her wife. She was just adorable and the little pout she had going was even better.
"Oh honey." The smile still on her face as she leant over and kissed Stefs pout away before resting her forehead against her wifes.
"Least we have Rylan for a few years before she thinks about boys. You think we should send her to an all girls school away from boys?" Lena burst out laughing at her wifes train of thought. Stef really loved her family and thats one of the many things that Lena loves about her wife.
"Really stef?" Lena managed to get out between her laughter. Her eyebrow raised as she said it. Stef shrugged, not seeing any problem with her idea, it was a good one. No boys were touching her littlest baby girl.
"What? Shes going to be my only littlest baby left and I want to keep her that way. All innocent and cute." Lena raised her eyebrow even more. Stef was just looking at Lena waiting for her to reply but she was annoyed that Lena looked like she was amused.
"So sending her away so they boys cant get to her is the best idea to keep her young and innocent? What about us? If we send her away we cant see her grow." Lenas eyebrow was still raised, waiting for Stef to figure out what was so wrong about her plan. Lena hid her chuckle but smirked as a frown formed on her wifes forehead.
"Oh yeah good point." Stef mumbled and then rolled on her back. Lena scooted over so her front was against Stefs side and then she rested her head on her wifes shoulder and moved to wrap her left arm over Stefs stomach.
"You're gonna be the one sitting in the living room when the girls all come home from dates aren't you?" Lena asked from her position, highly amused. The whole conversation was highly amusing.
"Oh you bet. Someones gotta scare the boys. If they cant deal with this momma tiger they can't have our girls." Stef was very serious, Lena could see that. She leant up and kissed Stef on the cheek.
"Ok momma tiger settle down, We will tell the girls in the morning." Stef nodded as both of them turned their lights off and then rolled over to cuddle each other, waiting for sleep to overtake them.
Naww Stef not happy about her babies growing up, she just wants them to remain her babies forever. Time flys with kids, in a blink of an eye they have gone from a bottle and nappies to college and married.
