In a heartbeat.

Today on week five day two I completed my fifth and final masterpiece,just three days ago I would not have believed it possible. But after I purchased the extra creative lifetime reward and the moodlet manager I was able to spend an entire weekend just painting and painting.

As I gazed upon that painting I could feel a connection with the beautiful young girl. Perhaps she was someone I had met before in a past life or maybe she is someone I am yet to know. The only thing I do know it that she will come to be the most important person in my family.

So it was with a slight mix of fear and excitment that I left the little home that had been both my prison and my sanctuary. It was very late when I left home for the final time I couldn't say goodbye in the soft light of the morning sun I had to bid farewell in the darkness of the witching hour.

It was so late when I arrived at my new home I could hardly find the steps to the front door. I promise to include better pictures next time. As for my new home,how strange and exciting it is to say the words new home,it has an actual shower and kitchen. I can finally learn to cook my family need never ever eat a quick meal again.

With the clock forever tick tocking my life away I knew that I had to settle down and marry. But although I have just eight days before my elder birthday the one thing I do not want to do is settle for just anybody. People say that love strikes when you are least expecting it and that things can change in a heartbeat.

A heartbeat was all it took for us to fall in love.

Actually she did have to settle because I was running out of NPC options. The repair man got old and died. The NPC acrobat managed to get himself turned into a vampire and the maid,Dj,singer and firefighter were all women. As it is the mixologist that she did end up with has just two days before aging up to elder so I am just hoping that one of them stays around long enough for any children to get to young adult. I will not be happy if I fail this project because the kids get taken away by the social worker. If both the parents last until at the very least 90 days I have about 26 days. Beatrice just got pregnant in my game so that is four days pregnancy,three days for nooboo,seven toddler,seven child,and is it 14 for a teen. Which is a total of 35 days by my reckoning. Lets hope Beatrice lives to a ripe old age or we just might be in trouble.

Remember the  rule that each Sim can age up early once if you want.  That might help :)  Also, I have a feeling that teens can be the head of a household.

Family time.

Rooservelt and I were married in a very private ceremony. Our wedding was a beautiful,simplistic affair and unfortunately there was no pictures taken. Because of our advanced ages we decided to start a family straight away. We hoped for twins so I began to watch kids T.V as I did not have enough LTH points left over to buy fertility treatment.

Here he is my oh so handsome husband celebrating his elder birthday.

After he had aged up I assure Rooservelt that I still loved him despite his new wrinkles and greying hair. I can only hope that he still feels the same about me when I age up in less then a week. He tells me he could only love me more but we shall see. He is a hopeless romantic so is always giving me gifts of flowers and gazing into my eyes. We make the most of our time together because before long our hands will be full with a little one. I worry that becoming a father for the first time in his seventies might be too much for Roosey but he says that having a nooboo will keep him young at heart.

Our little girl was born today we called her Emily.

We got our wish and had twins. This little lady is Charlotte.

Charlotte all grown up into a beautiful toddler. She has my eye colour and he dad's hair colour.

Emily has her dad's hair and eye colours. They are the light of our lives.

ratchie I love how you give a distinct personnality to your characters I had real pity for Beatrice when she was explaining how poor she was. And congrats on the twins hopefully they grow up as handsome as they already are!

Congratulations on the twins!

I have to know - do you pronounce Roosey as Rooz-y or  Rosie?  ;)

Thank you all for reading.

I prounounce it Rooz-y. I have a habit of shortening all my characters names if it is possible,so Charlotte will probably be Lotty and Emily will be Em or Emmy. It was funny that he such an old fashioned name as I am trying to portrait the passing of time by using old fashioned clothes and more traditional names,the names and clothes will change to suit the times as the generations go by.
Charlotte and Emily are named after the Bronte sisters I am a big fan of them in case anyone did not know this is why I had a Bronte in the Smith Dynasty.
