I really liked this. All four of them are recognizable, but they still come across as children.

Thanks, glad you liked it. I think it's hard to write children so I'm extra pleased that it worked out.

I liked this. The vignettes gave a nice sense of their childhood and an insight into the people they would become.

An interesting take on all the team, witnessing that key moment of weakness that later is how you understand that your parents are or were human after all. They're all so painfully young here...but still themselves. And Teyla not really liking meditation at first, I really liked that (I always see Teyla as someone for whom calm tranquility doesn't come as easily as she might wish...)

Wow, glad you liked it. And Teyla's piece was the one I struggled most with, so wow again!

That was wonderful. They're far too cute to be real kids, but that makes this fic all the better. ^^

I loved McKay's time machine, and of course Teyla's natural leadership.
