"Oh, it's my handsome groom." Maggie bundles her grandson into her arms.
"Hi, Grammy." Hayden smiles, face getting squished against her.
He's barely out of the hug before he's swivelling his head around looking for his Aunt, the recieving room hasn't changed much, he's already used to the seasonal change in decor.
It's late Spring so it's done in gentle shades of a water Lily, from deep purples to the palest of pinks.
"Where's Aunt Candy?" He finally asks.
Like she was summoned, Candy waddles out from a connecting room, her hands cradling her big tummy.
"Looking for me?" She asks with a bright smile, a healthy glow to her face.
He refrains from hugging her altogether and just takes her hands carefully, leading her over to the sofa.
"I'm pregnant, not injured." She complains but still lets him do as he wishes, not when he has that look of pinched concern on his face like he expects the baby to pop out any moment.
