    “Hey, can we drive with the top down?” Peggy asks with the enthusiasm of a child.

    “You know that’s the same thing Angie says every time we get into the car on a day like this.”

    “That kid knows how to enjoy life. It’s the little things that make it special.”

    “That’s for sure.”

    Santa Monica Pier – – Dinner time.

    Bette pulls into Santa Monica Pier and they find Tina and the kids waiting next to Peggy’s town car with her driver Samuel. They share hugs and kisses and then find a restaurant that everyone agrees on for dinner.

    “So, what have you guys been up today?” Bette asks after everyone has ordered.

    Tina answered. “Today we had a focus on sports day. Coaches talked to the kids about working and playing together, and then they formed their sports teams and played the different games.”

    “Aunt Bette I played on the basketball team, and our team won. Look here’s my medal.” Wilson pulls the medal out of his pocket and shows Bette and his grandmother.

    “Wilson that is wonderful. Congratulations. Are you on a basketball team at home?”

    “No. I just goof around with it, but I might decide to get on a team next year. I had a lot of fun today. The coach taught us stuff about being team players. One person can’t do it alone in a game like basketball. Everyone needs to do their part and work together. That’s what we did so we won.”

    “That is a wonderful lesson and you can use it beyond the basketball court as well. What about you Jang Yin?”

    “I played volleyball and our team didn’t win but the coach said we did a really good job. They only beat us by two points.”

    “Did you have fun playing even though you didn’t win?” Bette asked.

    “I did. I had the best time and I made a new friend. Her name is Melissa. She says that she goes there all summer so maybe I can see her when we come back. Aunt Tina? Can we go back there in the summer?”

    “It’s OK with me, if it’s OK with your grandmother.”

    1. Okay, so Helena is in prison and may get out in two years. Peggy still has not told Bette and Tina exactly what is in the will but has intimated that they will get a significant portion of her estate. Of course Winnie will probably get a significant portion as well. So how will Helena support herself? I’m sure she has no job skills and with a criminal record, she is going to find employment difficult. The way she has treated people in the past, its going to be difficult for her to develop any kind of permanent relationship. Helena’s life is not going to be easy in the future. Of course, there is always a chance that Helena will see the error of her ways and change her life. But I do not see this with this Helena.

      This is the first time Angie has been in a situation where she was not the oldest child nor was she the center of attention. And it appears that at the center, she and Wilson and Jang Yin were all put in separate groups. So Angie did not carry the roll of leader of pack. This is a new experience for her and I wonder how she will respond to it. Hopefully she will respond positively.

      Love how Bette and Peggy interact together. I just hope that Peggy will take some time to interact with Tina on her own as well. Although Peggy has a favorable impression of Tina, she needs to know Tina and see the qualities she brings to the relationship with Bette and to forge her own relationship with Tina as an individual.

      Now, I cannot believe that Bette is going to give up on being the bumper car champion. Bette really is maturing in a responsible parent. Sometime you win more if you just let it go and acknowledge you cannot win them all.

      Love this story….. keep the chapters comming….
