This sure takes me way back. I remember when the girls would set up tents outside and have huge slumber parties. Of course, their parent's had no idea us guys had been invited to show up once the parents went to sleep. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

Just "clean" fun, huh? What happens under the sheets no body tells....I bet you have more stories than I could ever write ....Hugs, Carol
-
Honestly, a good guy never tells, but I just wish I had a few stories left in me. LOL.
-
At least a few worth telling. :-)
-
Oh, I have no doubt you do! But as you said...good guys don't tell.
-
I guess I wasn't really too good of a guy. I didn't keep secrets because it was the right thing to do. I just knew that I didn't want other invading my space, or the girls taking away my privilege's. LOL. Shame on me.
-
Well, you are honest, my friend. More than I can say about most. LOL
Comment from Carol Clark2
So much for Ava grounding Natasha! It's a shame Ava doesn't believe her own mother, and is defending her daughter. Natasha needs some discipline. What a lame apology; she probably never sent it to her grandmother. Good chapter. Carol

Ava would rather believe her "baby" is a saint than trust anything her mom says. She carries self-made wounds and blames others for her problems in life. The apology meant nothing...just going through the motions.
Smiles, Carol

This is another excellent chapter. Again, it held my interest from beginning to end.
I am looking forward to the next chapter. I do not see any room for improvement. Have a blessed day.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
She doesn't remember! That's not good. We need her to save Dion, and we all know that Jason won't volunteer the truth about the baby, but Judy knows that it was Bobby that ran Dion off the road. What a den of lies there is in this story. Okay, off again! This isn't good for my heart beats. :)) Sandra xxx

The sad part is that people who tell lies so often begin to think they are the truth. Do I need to post a warning before you read my stories? LOL Can't have anything happening on my watch to my readers.
Smiles and hugs, Carol
Comment from lyenochka
It's sad that Ava will have to learn the hard way that her daughter is lying to her and that she needs to take her mother's words more seriously.
Poor Jackson can't get the investigation underway if the medical staff keeps pushing him out. I guess he'll get his chance soon enough.

Ava walks around with blinders on when it comes to Natasha. She's had troubles in her life and has found it easier to blame Isabella for everything. Some day when it's too late she might see.
Smiles, Carol

I hate that! Why do some people think it's okay just to blame mom for everything for the rest of their lives? They never mature that way and never grow as human beings! Argh!
-
I agree. I heard from Matt tonight and it looks like a storm cloud is moving my way. I pray that I can withstand it.
-
I'll join you in prayer, Carol. 💖💞🙏
-
Thank you so much, Helen. I'll take all the prayers I can get. Have a great day!
Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
Natasha is like her mother. She shows no respect. I wonder how Isabel talked to her mom. Good writing.
Jackson better watch out for Audrey. Her shenanigans could hurt him. Karen :-)

The swearing and temper came from the father - an angry Italian, who dominated for a long time till Isabella got wiser. Her own father was a chauvenist. Funny, how we adopt many of the characteristics that we hate in others.....

Comment from royowen
It seems that Natasha is selfish absorbed teenager, and probably isn't the right sort of friend for poor Gabby, Gaddy's got to grow up in a hurry, now that she has no parent, affectively a teen age orphan. Beautifully written Carol, blessings Roy

You are right! Gabby got swept up by Natasha and Becky because she needed friends. She didn't fit in, but at least they were something when she was so confused, I think Isabella will do her best to keep Gabby far away.

That would be aood idea
Comment from Wendy G
Too realistic, too authentic in dialogue especially Natasha and Ava, for me to feel at all comfortable witht heir attitudes and actions. What terrible pain and distress for Isabella. It's both powerful and moving, and so very real. Well written. I can tell how hard this must be to write, so I hope it is cathartic.

Unfortunately, Natasha and Ava don't see the picture the same way as Isabella. They are "sweet" to others and find themselves with those who understand about the "old woman"
Writing this story has been a stress reliever...well, for the most part. I guess verbalizing some of their attitudes and actions helps me to understand, not accept, but understand. Sometimes, the sun actually shines again.
Thank you, Wendy...... Smiles and hugs, Carol
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
Paddy and Amanda's dialect seems easier to read and they are such nice people. Isabella is a good person also, but her daughter is foolish and irresponsible by distrusting her other. Therefore, her daughter is rotten to the core. Layla is amusing as she picks on her brother, Jackson. You have created a very interesting collection of characters and created an exciting story.

I eased up on the brogue so it would be easier to understand. After all, no body wants to struggle to understand it. Isabella has been faced with a heavy cross to bear...put up with her family or face life alone. It's a difficult choice.
All sisters love the chance to one-up their brothers. LOL
Smiles, Carol

This is a well composed chapter of your book, and I enjoyed listening to it very much. I wish you the very best with your book, and I hope that the conclusion of the book will be as exciting as the rest of the book has been for me to listen to.

Good day, Patricia
Thank you again for listening to my story. Ididn't know that was possible. Guess it happened while I was gone for a while. I think that's awsome for so many. Thank you for your wishes.
Smiles and hugs, Carol
