This is a fairly large update, I think I have been playing my game and doing this update for almost 4 hours. Not sure if it will go to the next page or not. Wheww, I need a break,lolI have been working really hard on my cooking skills and have learned alot of recepies from the cooking network, but I have to stop and take a break every once in a while. The tv makes my eyes crossed, so to speak anyway.
Perry turned into a teenager and now really looks like Chris. I didn't have a chance to snap a closeup, but I am sure there will be more pics taken. I have done so much thinking and planning, that I hope that what I am going to do is the right thing. I invited Jessica out to the gravesite of Agnes and Chris to talk.
I ask her if she had the chance to be with Chris again and not in the spirit world, would she do it? She ask me why I had even ask her such a thing, but I wanted an answer. She said she would do it in a heartbeat, but there was no way that was going to happen, so why even think about it. She ask me the same about Agnes and I said, yes I would and it didn't take me that long to answer. She asked me if this conversation had anything to do with me gardening and watching that stupid tv all day. I told her she would find out soon enough and dreams do come true, if you wish hard enough.
I saw Agnes that night and ask her if she still loved me and loved me enough to ever want to be together again. She told me, "sweetie, we will be together again, when it is your time, I will meet you." I told her that is not what I mean't.
She took my hands in hers and told me that I must be getting senile. She was still avoiding the question.
She looked at me with that look, I think and told me, if she had the chance to spend eternity on earth with me, she would and that is all I needed to know.
The next day was Sunday and we always get some of the family for visits and it is such a welcome change. Josling decided to visit and told me some strange news. She said, "mom called me today. She said she left the council and was hiding out somewhere and that everything was going to be fine. She really wants to see Jody grandpa, do you think we could trust her enough?" I told her it was her life and if she thought she could trust her mother, then I would not stop her, but to be careful.
I just told her, remember what she did to her own sister and daughter and let her heart guide her.
With that, she gave me a hug and told me I was a wise old man. Hmmm, not sure whether to take that as a compliment or what.
That night, Chris came for his visit and Jessica and him had their own moment, not sure what was said, but I don't usually bother them when he shows up.
I know they talked for a while and he kissed her bye and left way before the usual time. Not quite sure what was said, but that was strange.
The next day was Perry's first day of school as a teenager and he was actually excited to go. I guess a grade school girl he had liked, had her birthday at the same time and I think he is in puppy love. He ask if he could invite her over after school and I said that was fine.
I saw her when she first came in, but didn't really stay. I wanted to give him some privacy, but from the sounds of it, they were more than just friends, as I was told later.
I happened to walk in the room about the time they were smooching and dropped my jaw. I could clearly tell she was a vampire and thought, oh no you don't not again and not in my lifetime, but I kept my opinion to myself and thought maybe I would talk to Jessica about this.
I went downstairs and explained what I saw and she really got mad at me and I was confused.
She said that no matter what, from now on, we will not interfere with the love of our children's life. If they make a mistake, they are on their own, but if they love someone and someone loves them, then let it be. She reminded me of Amanda, she was not a vampire and look at the grief she caused this family. Then look at Joslin and what a wonderful woman and good mother she is, so who was I to judge who the kids see or marry or whatever the case may be. I guess that made sense, but I still was not 100% convinced about the whole thing, so I will let it go for now. Jessica and I hugged and went about our business.
I stayed up all night and finally maxed my cooking and now, to find that book...
I kept getting interruptions while I was trying to read, but that is ok, I have time, maybe...Perry needed to talk to me, so he went on about school and then the subject of his new love came up. Her name is Yesenia Wainwright, why does that last name sound familiar, oh well. He said she was the one and he was so in love and he asked her to go steady and what did I think.
I told him to follow his heart and I was happy if he was happy. I guess he was expecting a lecture, but I decided to follow my very wise daughter's advice and keep my mouth closed, until I had a reason to open it.
Finally, I finished the book and I was so excited, I could not stand it.
I went right to the kitchen and finally was able to do what I had wanted to do for so many months now.
I know I will sleep good tonight, because my plan has almost come to an end and I will have the love of my life by my side for all eternity.
