Year 0 - Brussels, Belgium

Iris and Eetu got married two years ago, after dating for a few years. They live in Iris' home city of Brussels, where Eetu works in a chemical lab, and Iris teaches primary school children.
Year 1 - Montreal, Canada
Although life in Brussels has been fantastic, Iris and Eetu both felt they needed a change. In the end, they found an apartment in Montreal for a fairly reasonable price, and after a few weeks, they found work in similar fields to before.
Year 2 - Montreal, Canada
Eetu and Iris had wanted a pet for a long time, but their flat in Brussels didn't allow it. In Montreal, they decided to get a mouse, who they called Lilou.

DS1/DS2/DD1 [nb]: Valentin Leevi Tähtinen & Florent Joonas Tähtinen & Margot Noora Tähtinen {straight black hair, brown eyes}
When Iris and Eetu discovered they were expecting, they were overjoyed - when the ultrasound revealed that Iris was carrying triplets, they were stunned. The weeks after the birth of Valentin, Florent, and Margot were a little overwhelming, but things quickly settled down into a manageable routine.
Year 4 - Montreal, Canada
Although Lilou the mouse recently died, the Tähtinen family recently adopted a kitten. His name is Marko.
Year 5 - Montreal, Canada
Iris’ hours at the school have been cut, not long after she returned from maternity leave. It sees a slight drop in the family income, but the time she gets to spend with the triplets makes up for it.
Year 6 - Montreal, Canada
Adding to their growing household, Iris and Eetu get a budgie, named Sulo
Year 7 - Montreal, Canada
Iris’ mother passes away
Year 8 - Sydney, Australia
Eetu’s work ends up requiring a move to Australia - the triplets are quite upset about it, but in the end begin to enjoy life in Sydney.
Year 9 - Sydney, Australia
The move as well as the triplets growing up has caused some tension between Iris and Eetu. They have a series of explosive arguments but eventually resolve their issues.
Year 10 - Sydney, Australia

DS1/DS2/DD1 [7]: Valentin Leevi Tähtinen & Florent Joonas Tähtinen & Margot Noora Tähtinen {straight black hair, brown eyes}
DS3 [nb]: Hugo Tuomas Tähtinen {straight dark brown hair, blue eyes}
Eetu and Iris sit the triplets down one day and tell them that they’re going to have a little sibling. A few months later they welcome Hugo, who… isn’t exactly popular, particularly not with Margot, who really didn’t want another brother.
Year 11 - Sydney, Australia
Hugo is ill for several weeks with a nasty fever. Eventually it passes, but Margot, Valentin and Florent realise that they care for their little brother a lot more than they thought.

DS3 [2]: Hugo Tuomas Tähtinen {straight dark brown hair, blue eyes}
DS4 [nb]: Julien Kaarle Tähtinen “Jules” {straight dark brown hair, blue eyes}
The look of resignation on the triplets’ faces when Iris announces her third pregnancy is priceless - however, they quickly grow fond of baby Jules.
Year 13 - Sydney, Australia
Iris has been promoted to Head of Primary at the school she teaches at.
Year 14 - Sydney, Australia
Valentin has recently discovered a passion for art, and has been practicing his drawing at every opportunity.
Year 15 - Sydney, Australia
Eetu has decided to leave research behind him, and has taken up a post as a secondary school chemistry teacher.
Year 16 - Barcelona, Spain
The decision to move their young family to a foreign country they’d never been to before, speaking a language none of them knew, was difficult. However, they all love Barcelona, and adjust to their new life there quickly. Naturally, Marko and Sulo come too.
Year 17 - Barcelona, Spain
Adding to their menagerie, Iris and Eetu get a pet lizard for Jules, who names it Lars.
Year 18 - Barcelona, Spain
After 23 years together, Eetu and Iris get a divorce. They decided that things were just too difficult between them, and it would be better for everyone if they separated. All the kids take it quite hard, especially Hugo, who’s only 6, and they begin to get closer. Iris and Eetu agree to shared custody of them all.
Year 19 - Barcelona, Spain
Eetu receives a promotion to Head of the Chemistry Department at the school he teaches at.

Elena and Gracia both get on well with the kids, although sometimes communication is difficult - the triplets in particular don’t speak such good Spanish, and Elena knows little English.
Year 21 - Barcelona, Spain
Iris received a promotion at the primary school. In addition, the triplets all finished school. Valentin is staying at home for a while more, making a living selling his art. Florent is studying computer science in Paris, while Margot is studying political science in Perth.
