Michi sat in the grass of the commons with books and baby toys spread around her. She tried to keep Isamu from crawling away too far. Anna usually never dropped him on her during exams but she couldn't find a babysitter and it was her's and Elizabeth's anniversary. Michi loved him more than anything on the planet but with the countdown to finals it was just a little stressful. "Come on little bug, why you gotta be such a punk today?" she asked reeling him back in after a well executed baby escape.

She plunked him back down in her lap and trapped him there with her legs, handing him his doll and a book to pick from. Izzy wasn't having any of it though. "NO!" he shouted, giving the book a solid toss.

Michi's eye twitched a little at the word. "I love that you're talking and forming your own opinions my pumpkin but now is not the time to disagree with mommy. We have a shit ton of Latin to remember by exam week and things aren't looking too pretty."

"Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah!!!" he screamed, shaking his head back and forth.

"Oh! You're just being a stubborn shit today," she said snapping her book shut. "Fine. One walk. And then we have to study. Got it bud?" She asked shoving things into her bag. Once she had everything collected she took Izzy by the hand and let him toddle beside her. They walked for a bit, Michi let the quiet reset her mind and calm her down from her earlier frustration. Izzy giggled as they walked along, he had a few stumbles but he was getting more stable every day.

As they walking Izzy caught sight of a familiar face and pointed to the girl sitting under the tree. "That's right Izzy, Auntie Rowan," she grinned.

"Rawr rawr rawr!" he giggled, already deciding to head over and say hello.

"Hey Ro," Michi said as they walked over.

Hearing the impending toddler attack before she had even taken off her headphones, Rowan carefully moved all of the rip-able and breakable things out of reach and into her bag. Better safe than replacing school textbooks and notes.

"Rawr rawr rawr yourself there, kiddo! C'mon over here! Auntie Rowan wants a kiss."

Moving from sitting to standing, Rowan opened her arms to take the boy from Michi if she could. She loved kids, and Izzy was just so cute that she just wanted to kiss his little face into oblivion.

"Hey Michi! Playing mommy today?"

Izzy toddled even faster at the open invitation and giggled brightly as he almost tripped into Rowan's arms. "Rawr rawr!" he said clapping his hands together.

"Oh it's forever mommy," she laughed adjusting the strap of her bag. "Anna and Elizabeth couldn't find a sitter tonight and it's their anniversary. Mr. Man, as cute as he is, is making it hard to study so we were just taking a break. We'll both be glad for summer," she grinned.
