Peggy: Bette, Tina hello and welcome. Well look at you Angelica, you look just precious.

Angelica: Thank you. New coat. Pretty dress.

Peggy: It is a very pretty dress and the pink coat suits you well. Here, let us take your coats. We’ll get started with the Easter egg hunt right away. The children have not stopped asking since they woke up.

Wilson: Hi Miss Bette and Miss Tina.

Jung Ling: Happy Easter!

Tina: Happy Easter to you too. We have some presents for you.

The children open their gifts and laugh at the eggs from Angelica.

Bette: Wilson, I hope we can play cribbage after we eat.

Wilson: Cool, just don’t beat me too bad this time.

Bette: Well maybe we can play teams and you’ll be on my team.

Wilson: Oh yea, we’ll crush ‘em then.

Helena: How about we get started with that Easter egg hunt?

The children have a blast finding the candy, toy and coin filled eggs around the house. Wilson finds the most, but shares some of the girlie treats with his sister. They are served a beautiful and delicious Easter dinner and enjoy games afterwards. Bette joins with Wilson and Helena and Tina take turns with Jung Ling. Bette and Wilson are the victors each time and Wilson takes great pride in beating his Mom.

Tina: Peggy I plan to be back here for Mother’s Day weekend. Can we get you over on that Saturday for dinner or brunch? Helena will you be here too?

Peggy: That sounds lovely. Let me check my schedule to see which works best.

Helena: No, Winnie and I are actually taking the children off for the weekend together. We try not to make them choose for Mother’s Day.

Bette: That’s great that you are able to do that Helena.

Helena: I’ve come a long way Bette.

Peggy: Indeed you have my dear.

Bette, Tina and Angelica return home, change and take Angelica out for a spin on Giraffe. This time they venture around the corner, but come back the same way, still not sure she’s up for taking on the entire block. After a bath and story, they put the baby to bed and get themselves ready for bed and Tina’s return to LA. They have plenty of energy tonight and their love making is more frantic and athletic. Frantic as they know Tina will be gone for a month and athletic as they are both well rested. They both take Angelica to school in the morning and Tina really likes the place. Angelica gives her the tour of the class room, play room, nap blankets, toys and outside play area. Tina meets the director and teacher and she and Bette walk hand in hand back to the museum.

Tina: As expected, a great choice babe. She seems so happy there, almost proud to show me around.

Bette: Yea, I’m glad she’s taken to the place so well. As you can see it is super convenient and has an awesome reputation here. Are you dropping me off here or coming up?

Tina: Do you want your see you I a month good bye kiss here or in your office?

Bette: Guess you are coming up.

Tina delivers a bit more than a good bye kiss, but Bette gets the message loud and clear: You are mine. You are loved and I’ll miss you. Tina returns to the apartment, goes for a quick run, has breakfast and fixes dinner for Bette to heat later. The car comes on time and they return to LA with ease. Returning to the house in LA has become a lonely ritual by now and she longs for the day she’ll finally be in New York and home for good.
