(A/N: I am the youngest for four kids, I know nothing about baby development, so bear with me. I'll try to get it as accurate as possible, but I could have a few mistakes, such as how old when babies sit up, talk, stand, walk, etc.)

Hawkeye and Margaret were woken up again at seven by the twins. It was Saturday, so luckily Hawkeye was able to stay home with Margaret and help out. Hawkeye liked to spend the day with his kids and his wife; helping with all the baby things he never got to do during the week when he was working.

"I forgot to tell you there was a letter in with the invitation."

"What did it say?"

"Well it was for both of us, so I figured we'd read it last night when you got home from work, but when I saw you yesterday evening with that rose, looking so good, I got a little distracted."

"Well where is it?" Hawkeye said from the floor, by the twins. They were on the blanket, crawling and lifting their heads, slowly learning to sit up on their own. He was playing with them.

"In the kitchen. Hold on a sec." She disappeared for a moment and came back with a letter in a sealed envelope. "I didn't even open it." Hawkeye got up, made sure the twins were safe on the blanket unable to get at anything and sat down on the couch. He pulled Margaret into his lap and the cuddled up together. When they were finally comfortable, and Hawkeye stopped kissing Margaret's neck, Margaret opened the letter.

"Dear Hawkeye and Margaret (Major Houllihan had been scratched out before)

How are things? I haven't seen you since your wedding, but I know you said you have twins now, Nick and Beth. I'd love to see them some day. Well, things are going pretty good here on the farm, and I guess since you got the other thing, well, you know what we've been up to. No, Hawk, I didn't mean it like that, I'm not in trouble, before you say anything.

Me and Patty are real happy here. Soon, I'm going to Iowa State University to become a vet, for all animals, but mostly farm animals. The Doc here in Ottumwa is getting older, and needs someone to take over for him. Iowa State is actually only a half hour drive away, so I'll be able to live in mine and Patty's home, which we built on our land so we can run the farm.

The main reason I wrote this letter was, well I know you guys are busy with your twins and all, but I really hope you can come. Hawkeye, I'd really like you to be my best man. I got a couple friends here in Ottumwa from school, but most of them still haven't grown up. I'm not near so close to them anymore. You are my best friend and you helped so much with me. When I went to Korea I was just a little kid, but you taught me a lot of things, I learned a lot. You're kind of like an older brother, so I want you to be my best man. BJ is gonna be one of my groomsmen, and one of my friends will be the other. Elroy was my best friend, but he married my fiancé when we were in Korea so he won't be there.

Margaret, Patty doesn't have a lot of friends that are girls, so we were wondering if you would be her Maid of Honor. You've always been kind of a big sister to me in a way. Well, the wedding is in two weeks, so maybe you could call us when you get this letter. Hope to see you soon!!

Radar"

"That's really sweet of him. I never knew he ever thought of me that way." Margaret was almost in tears.

"We really should go. We'll call Mom and Dad, see if they can watch the kids for the weekend, and we'll call Radar."

Two weeks later Hawkeye and Margaret flew to Iowa to see their "little brother" get married. The wedding, like the town was small and quaint; a very peaceful town, much like what one would see in a movie. Radar was a little nervous, and at first when he was asked to kiss the bride, he put on a show for the 4077th of being too embarrassed, but then he swooped over and gave Patty a very passionate kiss in front of everyone, much like Hawkeye did with Margaret. They all cheered and threw rice as the couple got into a horse drawn carriage to take them to the farm where the reception was being held.

"Hey Radar that was some kiss!" Hawkeye slapped him on the back.

"Thanks Hawk. You know I've changed a lot. I'm not near so nervous as I was. That kiss, I learned from seeing you do that to Margaret. I thought I'd surprise everyone. But you know, I was always afraid of girls, but Patty has changed me so much. I love her Hawk."

"I know you do. So, what are you doing for the Honeymoon?"

"Well we're going to go to Niagara Falls for a week. After that I start school at Iowa State."

"So I guess you're pretty excited about Niagara Falls huh?"

"Oh well it's nothing I haven't done before." Radar smiled a mischievous said and looked up at Hawkeye.

"Really?" He smiled when Radar nodded. "I knew it! I thought your voice seemed deeper. Well now you understand, huh?"

"Yeah." Radar blushed a little. "I may have changed a little but I'm still kind of embarrassed, I should go." Hawkeye laughed as Radar bustled off to find Patty for another dance. That night everyone watched them get in the taxi that would take them to the airport in De Moines, just a half hour away. After lots of hugs and kisses the couple finally left and was followed by another taxi a half hour later. The only flight back to Maine that day was late in the night, and they wanted to get home to the twins, so Hawkeye and Margaret had to leave once again, after they hugged everyone from the 4077th.

They loved seeing all their old friends, but they felt so bad being away from their children. Though sometimes they were worn out by their kids and sometimes were frustrated, they couldn't wait to get back to the babies, even if it meant dirty diapers.
