Hey guys, so this is my first non-chronological chapter, and if you have any ideas, just leave them in the review section. (And Felix, Marzia, and Maria live in America, they move when Maria was two)

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the story

Maria is 3 and a half, Elle is 5, Sofya and Noah are 6

"Wait a second." Marzia ran back inside the house and grabbed her video camera. "…and today is Maria Kjellberg's very first day of preschool." Marzia smiled, turning the camera to her three and a half year old daughter who was standing against the outside wall.

"Look at my backpack!" Maria said, her voice already showing an Italian accent like her mom. She took of her bag and showed it to the camera. It was navy blue with neon pink polka dots. "Do you like it?" Felix chuckled and picked her up.

"I'm sure they do." Felix kissed her forehead and set her back on the ground. She turned to the camera.

"And do you like my hair? Mommy did it!" Her dark blonde hair was in two French braids. Marzia laughed.

"Maria!" Elle called, walking down the sidewalk with her parents, who were also vlogging.

"Elle!" Maria ran to her friend and hugged her. Kalel chucked and turned her camera to the two girls.

"Maria, are you excited for your first day of preschool?" Anthony asked, kneeling in front of her. He remembered Elle's first day, in which she cried and begged not to go.

"Yes!" she jumped, smiling.

"Hey guys!" Ian and Melanie walked with their twins, who immediately ran over to the girls. The adults gathered the kids within sight.

"So how're you handling it?" Ian asked. "I know when it was Sofya and Noah's first day, Mel had a mental breakdown." Melanie rolled her eyes playfully.

"Are you sure you're remembering right? I think it was you that had the mental breakdown." The adults laughed.

"I think I'm doing alright, but it'll be strange without her running around the house all day." said Marzia.

"Yeah," said Felix, watching the kids play. "And it would be really quiet." The bus came down the road and stopped at the corner where the children were playing. Marzia ran over to her daughter and Felix walked behind her.

"Bye mom, bye dad." Said Elle, stepping onto the bus. The twins waved and followed her on.

"Bye kids!" Ian, Anthony, Melanie, and Kalel waved at their kids through the bus windows.

"Do you have your lunch?" Marzia asked. Maria nodded. "Okay." Marzia tried not to tear up. She kissed her forehead. "I love you."

"I love you Mommy." Maria smiled.

"What about me?" Felix asked, picking her up and swinging her in the air. Maria giggled.

"I love you too, Daddy." Felix hugged her. This was it, his little girl was growing up. Felix started to cry. He quickly put her down.

"Now hurry up, before the bus leaves without you." She turned and ran up the steps to the bus, waving through the window as it drove away.

"I miss her already." Felix sighed.

"Don't worry, she'll be home in a couple hours." Marzia said, watching the bus drive away.
