Tina: No, I’ll have the flexibility and probably the need to run next week in CA.

Bette: See there is an upside to being sans baby in LA. I have Vera scheduled for Wednesday and Friday mornings this week. I’ll take the baby on her first day.

Tina: Well be sure to call so she can tell me all about it. Call my cell as I have idea when I’ll be home or at my desk.

Bette: Well no matter what just know we’ll be waiting for you next weekend. I think we’ll all be so busy the week will fly.

Tina: I’ll check on the baby.  She drank most of the bottle so she was hungry. Hey thanks for cleaning up in here. I’ll go put in our last load of laundry.

Bette: I’ll meet you in the living room for a hot laundry date.

Tina: Well the laundry is done and put away, how does bed sound.

Bette: Like the hot date I really want with you; laundry was foreplay. I know you find my domestic side just so sexy.

Tina: From where I sit every side of you is sexy. Apparently you having gotten that message.

On the final night of Tina’s trip they make love passionately. No matter how nice those other beds were there truly is no place like home. Sunday morning comes early, but the family is well rested and looking forward to their big Sunday breakfast. They are at diner by

Tina: Grab the camera in case the Easter bunny is there.

They pull up to the museum in the taxi to a line at the entrance.

Bette: Guess that answers our question about the Easter bunny.

Tina: Well, we’ve never been here right at opening so that could be part of it. Oh wait there’s the bunny looks like you get a chance to meet him before entering, that’s pretty smart as it’s fairly tight inside.

Bette: Well let’s be out of here by noon. Angelica will need her nap and I still want to lay around and read the Times with you.

Carolyn: Wow, perfect timing. We’re strollerless too this time.

Bette and Tina: Hi Carolyn, hi Alexandra.

The babies had already hugged and were now holding hands in line.

Carolyn: Well now that Angelica is here full time we’ll have to get them together more often. They are like two peas on a pod.

Tina: Well she is my sweet pea.

Carolyn: When will we have you here full time Tina?

Tina: June. We’ve got a buyer for the house and we finish shooting both films at the end of April. It’s pretty cool to fly back with no luggage this time. I’ll actually be back for a quick visit next weekend for Easter.

Carolyn: Oh that’s nice that you’ll make it back for the holiday. Good luck finishing up those projects and getting moved. Summer is a perfect time to move to New York. Hey its our turn. Angelica first.

Bette: Can you wave to the Easter bunny and give him hug Boo?

Angelica waves and gives him a big hug. Bette captures the hug and her big smile as she turns after the hug. Alexandra goes through a similar routine and Bette captures her too. The girls have their usual fun and the parents pack up the party just before noon an head home. They feed Angelica a light lunch and put her down for her nap at about 1pm. Bette and Tina get their New York Times time and hang out on the sofa until Angelia wakes which is also their signal that it’s time to head out to JFK. This good bye is less tearful. Bette is excited to get Angelica home and ready for her first day of school in New York. They have dinner at 6, play and until 7 and she reads to the baby until she falls asleep just before 8pm. Bette downloads their photos sending Alex’s photo to Carolyn and number of vacation photos to Kit. She takes her shower and heads to bed waiting for Tina’s safe landing call.

Bette: T?

Tina: We’ve landed safely so I should be home in less than an hour. Are you in bed?

Bette: Yea, waiting for you call. Glad you are safe. Give Shane a hug for me and good luck tomorrow.

Tina: Call me after school. I love baby.

Bette: I love you too T.
