Okay, I will take a stab at this!

Ann and Chris happily co-parent Oliver and share a home but they never feel compelled to marry.

Ben and Jerry continue their friendship, and eventually even Leslie comes to accept it. They come to rely on Jerry/Larry/Terry and Gayle for the type of parenting advice and support you can only get from seasoned parents who aren't related to you by blood. When they go away overnight for the first time without the triplets, Jerry and Gayle babysit.

Andy continues to have success performing as Johnny Karate. The triplets earn a certain clout among the preschool set when everyone finds out Johnny Karate is their "uncle." He also, after the success of the Unity Concert, discovers he has a talent for organizing musical events and, in this way, ends up with a side career in concert promotion. With the help of April, who handles the business end of things (with Ben's encouragement, she even takes night classes to get her MBA), and Tom, who handles the food, the Unity Concert becomes an annual regional music and food fest that attracts some pretty significant names. And lots of hipsters, which Ron could do without.

Ron legally adopts Diane's daughters. By the time they're in junior high they are making small wooden trinkets that they sell at the Farmer's Market and earning money tutoring their male classmates who struggle in woodworking class. Although he has enough wealth that his family will be set for life, it pleases him to know that his kids have the skills and business sense to make their own way. As much as he loves his family life, he takes one week each year to go off the grid and be alone, without the distraction of other humans. He takes solo parenting duties for the same amount of time each year so Diane has time to do the same, although she takes her trip with friends.

Ben and Leslie are always exhausted and super happy. When they look in at their kids at night they both think about how lucky they are that Pawnee had a budget crisis.
