（公主結(jié)識了很多新朋友，兩位天使也越來越親密了。）
就這樣，時間一年又一年地過去了。
賽琳娜公主一天天長大起來，直到她嫁給了勇敢英俊的克奧多王子。盡管他們生活得很快樂很幸福，但他們的嬰兒搖籃在很長一段時間里都沒有孩子用過。沒過多久，王國的人們就開始擔憂王位沒有繼承人，而克奧多王子和賽琳娜公主因悲傷也病倒了。而此刻，紫羅蘭也在天上從一朵云到令一朵云地游走，尋找著石竹花。
“哈哈，你在這里。我一直在找你。”
“你為什么要找我？”石竹花問。
“你什么意思，'為什么？’當然是玩啊?！?/span>
“紫羅蘭，我不想再玩了?！?/span>
“為什么你不想玩了呢，石竹花？”
“因為從上次我跟賽琳娜公主玩到現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)是很長時間了。她是那么善良和藹。我想念她！”
這時，上帝的聲音從天而降：“你想再見到她嗎？”
“想！”石竹花激動地說。
“好吧，我可以把你送到她身邊，但你得叫她'媽媽’。你同意嗎？”
“同意。但'媽媽’是什么？”
“你會知道的，”上帝的聲音回應(yīng)道，而這時紫羅蘭卻突然哭了起來。
“石竹花，沒有你我該怎么辦？”
“誰說你會失去他？哈哈哈……”上帝哈哈大笑起來，而兩位天使則發(fā)現(xiàn)自己已經(jīng)在賽琳娜公主的肚子里了。
9個月后，賽琳娜公主終于生產(chǎn)了，這時國王來看她?！坝H愛的女兒，現(xiàn)在你得負雙倍責(zé)任了，因為你既得照顧丈夫，還得照顧你的第一個孩子?！?/span>
“哈哈哈，”公主開心地笑了。
“什么事這么好笑？”國王問。
“來，跟我一起去育嬰室，你自己就會明白了，”賽琳娜公主對國王說。
國王走進育嬰室，看到了兩個嬰兒，不是一個。
“爸爸，你現(xiàn)在明白我為什么笑了嗎？這是因為我有兩個孩子了。粉紅色搖籃里的是石竹花，還有紫羅蘭，在紫色的搖籃里，”公主驕傲地宣布。
國王先是開心到說不出話來，但他很快就回過神來了，而且再次開始為他女兒感到著急。“親愛的女兒，兩個孩子帶來雙倍幸福，但同時也帶來了雙倍責(zé)任?！?/span>
“爸爸，別再這么為我擔憂了?，F(xiàn)在，我已經(jīng)長大成人，是一個媽媽了！”

Thus the years passed.
Princess Selena grew more and more, until one day she married the brave and handsome Prince Kodor. But even though they lived in happiness and bliss, their cradle remained empty of an offspring for a long time. It was not long before the people of the kingdom started to worry that there was no heir to the throne, while Prince Kodor and Princess Selena grew ill with sorrow. It was at that time that Violet was wandering from cloud to cloud in heaven, looking for Pinky.
“Ha, there you are. I have been looking for you.”
“Why were you looking for me?” Pinky inquired.
“What do you mean, 'why?’ To play, of course.”
“Violet, I don’t want to play anymore.”
“Why don’t you want to play, Pinky?”
“Because it’s been so long since I played with Princess Selena. She was so nice and kind. I miss her!”
God’s voice echoed through the skies then: “Do you want to see her again?”
“Yes!” Pinky exclaimed excitedly.
“Okay, I’ll send you to her, but you’ll call her 'Mommy.’ Do you agree?”
“Yes. But what is 'Mommy?’”
“You’ll find out,” the voice of God responded, just as Violet burst into tears.
“Pinky, what am I going to do without you?”
“Who says you’ll be without him? Ha-ha-ha…” As soon as God started laughing, the two angels found themselves in Princess Selena’s belly.
Nine months later, when the princess finally gave birth, the King went to visit her. “Dear daughter, now you’ll have to be twice as responsible, as you’ll be taking care of both your husband and your first-born child.”
“Ha-ha-ha,” the princess giggled.
“What’s so funny?” the King asked.
“Come with me to the nursery, and you’ll see for yourself,” Princess Selena informed him.
When he entered the nursery, the King saw not one but two cribs.
“Do you see now why I was laughing, Daddy? It’s because I have two children. That’s Pinky in the pink crib, and Violet—in the purple one,” the princess proudly announced.
The King was speechless with happiness at first. But shortly thereafter, he came to himself and once again started to fret over his daughter. “Dear daughter, two children bring twice the happiness but also double the responsibilities.”
“Stop worrying so much about me, Daddy. Now I’m a grown-up and a Mommy!”
