The Letter ch. 21
Both girls started laughing hysterically. Em finally got her breath. “Tina, did you get the I prefer a bed and room service speech?”
“I did. You mean that’s her standard approach when someone suggests sleeping in a tent?”
“Yes it is. Would you have really slept in a tent?” Alyssa asked me.
“Yes. I love to camp. My family and I used to go camping every summer.”
“Em,” Bette said. “Tina has said that she would go camping with you and Dana while Alice, Lyss and I stay in a hotel.”
“Would you really?”
“I would. My friends and I used to sleep in a tent in the backyard during the summers. I love camping and was upset that your mom was too much of a wimp to do it here.” They both laughed at me calling Bette a wimp and I felt that we had crossed a good point then. The girls wanted to show us their cabins and we started walking toward them. Lyss held back a little and walked beside me. She was so cute yet so small.
“Tina, if I wanted to go camping too, could I?”
“Of course Sweetie. Do you think that you would want to go with us?” I was a little surprised since Bette had told me about her fears.
“I don’t know. Maybe.”
“Well if you want to, we’d love for you to go with us.”
“Thank you.” She then ran to catch up with Bette and Em. This camp was impressive. The cabins were spacious and very modern. Lyss showed us her bunk and some of the projects that she had worked on in art and ceramics. We then went to Em’s cabin. It was as nice as some dorms that I’ve seen. She showed us a picture that she had painted of the waterfall that helped contribute to her Poison Oak. She also showed a pencil drawing of the same waterfall. Both were breathtaking. Bette, as I watched her, was studying both with the eye of a professional yet trying to maintain her role as mother. She praised Em, who stood there beaming.
The girls had a bon fire and we were in need of food so we walked back to the front with them to leave until morning. I told both of them again that it was really nice meeting them and they hugged and kissed Bette before we left.

Super and sweet on so many levels.
Yippee! LOL, haven’t read it yet – just wanted to say how much missed this story while the site was down!
L, your crazy, that opening line for the girls to meet Tina was great. So glad the kids liked Tina and hope they figure out how to get rid of the Warrens before the girls come home. Thank you. Md
That was an awesome update. It seems that the girls and Tina are going to be okay. I think Lyss is already loving Tina. It is nice to see kids who really love their parents and vise versa. I am not sure about sleeping in a tent but the hiking part sounds cool.
Great update – perfect weekend and I’m sure a big relief for all of them to see they will get along. pps
WOW!!! Very Beautiful!!!! THank you PPS
i’m with bette… give me a hotel any day… so glad the kids got along with tina… who wouldn’t… it was so cute to see them apart for 1 night… i think tina will be moving soon… love this s tory… can’t wait to see what the grand parents want… PPS
I am with Bette..no camping, no tents! I too think something is way up with the Warrens, and I don’t think it is money. I think that there is a good reason Trisha doesn’t want her children anywhere near them..what could it be? As for Bette and Tina, methinks they are going just a wee bit fast, with all the love talk and involving the kids now, it’s only been a couple of weeks since they met, right? I hope its not too fast too soon. I too liked Bette’s icebreaking comment about the camping!
tina did and awesome job with the girls! i see em and tina gettin along nicely once things settle down… this was fantastic update! :)PPS
NAG, again you have done a superb job with this chapter. So glad that the girls seem to like Tina. Bette’s line about camping really broke the ice for everyone. This was a lovely chapter and Em talking to Tina during the short walk was sweet. Tina isn’t a lawyer for nothing, she handled everything with great aplomb. Hope the Warren situation is taken care of soon and I know Joyce will get to the bottom of what is going on and I think my initial suspicion was correct, it is money. But how the hell did they find out about the money. Alice or her mother, well benefit of the doubt and all, maybe research. Really enjoyed this chapter. Thanks so much for posting. PPS
Naaaag, you’re back! I’ve been waitng for this all weekend. Damn, your friends are back now too. I love, love, love this story. This chapter was sooo good and I’m really glad that the girls seemed to get along with Tina. I hope you’ve got another update stored up, because I’m bursting at the seams for your next one!
whew, glad the kids like T.
