Arms Hotel, Saturday Morning

Okay, so for all the complaining about having to get up early - especially after a night chock-full of pollen - this was Kathy's favorite weekend of the year. Surrounded by kids who called her mom, arguing over breakfast, listening to them babble on about their likes and interests and hopes, singing them to sleep at night. Even with as a late an evening as they'd had, she was still up, bright and early, humming around the public room of the suite, readying it for tiny visitors.
A hotel room meant that she had to rely on room service for breakfast, but she made due, making sure to order plenty of fruit (heavy on the strawberries), and juice, and more bacon and sausage than any one room really ought to have.
Now to wait for folks to start showing up!
[Open for all tiny children and their parents, whether related or not!]

"Carys is killing me with how much older she is," even though Anders already knew Carys well. Of all Kathy's kids, she was the most frequent visitor. "And Dante has another kid with Ez. He's bringing him over in a bit, but that's all I know about him."

But he didn't want her to.

"Did she, though?" Kathy asked. "I mean, like, did she really?"
