[While one might think that nothing can surprise her further, hearing those words does throw Padmé for a bit of a loop. After all, how or why would either Leia, or Luke, remember her aside from possible holos or stories that were told about her? Yet the way Leia says it doesn't make Padmé think of tales or pictures, but something deeper.
They are bitter-sweet words, as while Padmé cannot explain how it has happened, it has. Yet, as Leia says, it would otherwise only be a dream by a daughter who would never know her mother's pride at the woman she had grown in to. A family had always been something that Padmé had desired, but duty had always come first. That, and finding someone, and even then, it is a Jedi that she wed.]
I do. [Because she does have so, so many questions. Who raised her? Was she loved? Was she happy? The list can go on, but she nods at that latter question posed on her.] Not that long ago, although it's a bit hard to judge time without making note of it.
