Finally, Kate came across a plastic storage container marked "Laura and Rob - 5-7 years old." Smiling, she hauled the crate back to her room and began picking through the articles, careful to remove the amulet first. After finding a cute sundress, underwear, socks, and shoes for Lauren and a t-shirt, boxers, shorts, and shoes for Rob, Kate walked downstairs.
Her kids were in the living room, watching TV as they sat on the couches. At first, the two didn't look up when their mom entered the room, but when they noticed her bikini, they were shocked. "Mom!" Laura exclaimed. "You look like twenty years younger! What HAPPENED?"
"You know Mom, you were hot when you were younger," Rob sheepishly commented. Mom started to explain the charm, and the kids had to believe her in light of her recent transformation. When she brought up her idea of turning them into their younger selves, Laura immediately agreed but Rob hesitated, until he saw how happy it would make his mom.

Happy she didn't have to go back upstairs, Kate placed the amulet around Lauren's neck and handed her the sundress.
Hesitating for a second, Laura decided to go for it, and grabbed the dress from her mom. Upon contact, Laura began transforming. Her clothes grew baggy and then began to fold in completely as she shrunk. Laura stared in wonder at her changing arms as she regressed, until suddenly she stopped. Her jeans had completely fallen off and dropped to the floor, and her bra was now sliding down her legs as her t-shirt flopped about. "I feel so little!" Laura exclaimed, as her mom began to untangle her old clothes and dress her. When Laura was all dressed, she admired herself, continually exclaiming how adorable she looked and felt.
