one she pulled out had a hand going over her mouth as she let out another laugh, it was of the cast but alec and vivian were in the front doing the goofiest poses with each other, her heart swelling a bit at the memory with her favorite curly headed goofball. “okay these need to be hung up immediately!” she called out to him with another laugh as she continued to sort through the pictures.

Riley had borrowed her baby books from her dad, her curiosity being peaked after her and Jude had been talking about them. She had looked through them before, never really being interested until now, especially with the new discovery she had found. It was the one picture in the book she had never seen, hidden behind the pages of the multiple other happy memories, was a picture of her as a newborn being held by her biological mother. She had never seen a picture of her before, only getting brief descriptions from Sheldon, and seeing this picture now, brought up new feelings she never thought she would have to deal with and questions she never thought she would have to ask. The tears started running down her face immediately, mother’s day already being hard enough for her but this brought along a new assortment of feelings. She knew there was only one person she wanted, Jude. So she texted him quickly, so happy for his response and set her phone back down while she waited for him, curled up as small as she could on the couch where she could see out the window, tears cascading down her cheeks.
