The day After the Egypt excursion it was Ruby's elder birthday
You can't see it here but mean spirited Desmond is laughing at poor Ruby as she ages up. Don't worry, Ruby will get the last bittersweet laugh.
And later on that evening Mauve is officially pregnant.
Unfortunately as Cesar was painting Ruby's elder portrait... Grim came to to town.
There was no begging.. Cesar shook Grim's hand and said I led a full life and it's time to go. He was 94
His headstone was moved to the family plot
Mauve hated being stuck at home, she couldn't even break boards in her condition. So in preparation for her next trip to Egypt, she practiced Snake Charming.. you know, just in case.
Desmond had to take 5 days unpaid leave from his job as a toddler sports coach to learn how to paint well enough to paint Ruby's portrait.. his payback for laughing at Ruby.
He did love his wife and unborn child.
Mauve has learned how to charm a Cobra and even kiss it.
Finally the day arrived and a new Red was born.. Rusty Red
