Earlier that morning Piper was sitting at the kitchen table feeding Baby Wyatt, and Phoebe was sitting next to her feeding Baby Chris their breakfast.
"Do you think Wyatt looks a little different this morning?" Piper asked Phoebe.
Phoebe looked over at him, "No, he looks like the same adorable nephew he always is," she answered.
"I just thought he looked a little glassy eyed this morning," Piper said, "oh well, I'm sure it's nothing."
Just then Paige orbed in.
"You went to Magic School early this morning," Piper said to her.
"Yes I had a message to call that teacher that I interviewed this week. The one who decided to move to London with his wife and baby daughter instead," she said. "He said he had a message from me to call as soon as possible, but I can't for the life of me remember why I wanted to talk to him."
"That's strange," Phoebe said.
"I'm sure if it's important it will come to me," she said.
"I'm glad you're both here." Piper said to them. "I've been meaning to tell you, that Leo and I have decided not to tell Chris or Wyatt what happened with the whole Gideon thing. We may tell Chris when he gets older, but we thought it was best not to say anything, especially because everything's worked out for the best and Wyatt was saved in time."
"Good thinking," Phoebe agreed.
"There's no sense in scaring them unnecessarily," Paige added.
"Oh, is that the time?" Phoebe asked frantically, "I'm late, bye boys," she said kissing both nephews on the forehead, and running out of the kitchen.
"Bye Phoebe," Piper called after her, sarcastically.
Phoebe's voice could be heard faintly from the distance, "Bye Piper, bye Paige."
Paige also realised she was due back at Magic School and orbed out leaving Piper alone with her two sons.
"Now, I'll get you two ready to go out with Daddy," Piper said to both Wyatt and Chris, when, conveniently, Leo orbed in.
"Hi Leo, I'm just about to get them both ready," Piper said to him.
Leo went straight over to Wyatt.
"Hi, buddy, how you going?" He asked him, while stroking his hair.
"I think I'll just take out Wyatt today, Piper," Leo suggested to her.
"Oh, why's that?" She asked.
"Well, I've been thinking, I missed out on spending a lot of time with him last year, when I was an Elder, and I'd like to make up for that, with a bit of one on one, you understand?" He asked trying to explain his feelings. "Chris is still just a baby, there'll be plenty of opportunities for us to spend time together later," he added.
Piper thought about this for a few seconds, and then conceded she understood.
"Okay, fine." She agreed.
"Thanks," he said.
Leo picked up Wyatt's bag that Piper had already prepared and then picked up Wyatt.
"We'll see you later this afternoon," he said kissing her and then orbing out.
Piper turned to look at Chris sitting patiently in his highchair. "Well I guess it's just you and me, kid," she said, as she stood up to clean up the kitchen hopingher day would be as normal as possible.
