I began in their future where A + C are 75 and 78.<br /><br />Karen BakingInATornado; thank you. I'm not good at relationships myself, so this is surprising me.<br /><br />Kath; she's good right now, because she knows her mum is just a bit nervous about the wedding. But she's feisty enough at other times. <br /><br />debi o'neille; welcome to drifting. This piece is actually a back story to the beginning I started months ago when Cordelia is 75. <br /><br />lotta joy; your husband cleaned the house?? Is he for hire? you could make a fortune!

I get cranky when the head hurts because my eyes won't focus so I can't read more than a few lines. <br /><br />Merle; mums do worry when their firstborn is about to leave the nest and hand out all sorts of advice whether it is needed or not. <br /><br />Mimsie; I know my mum thought she was wiser than me, and she probably was. I'm a bit "head in the clouds" sort of person. I know all four of mine are far wiser than I was at their ages. <br />I'm not sure how to write about a wedding, I've only ever been to three and one of those was mine where my mum and his mum took over and did everything they wanted. And I was happy enough to let them.

Perhaps in some cases they are but young people often go off at a tangent and do things they regret later in life.<br />I hope Angelo's mum or dad gives the same advice to him as Beth has to Cordelia as marriage is two-way street. <br />This story is growing so beautifully and I am sure we will be present at the wedding in the autumn. Glad it won't be too hot then.Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-63708542912582221022014-06-20T07:19:46.693+09:302014-06-20T07:19:46.693+09:30Very good advice, even if it's just common sen...Very good advice, even if it's just common sense it's amazing how many people don't have that, and mum feels better too.<br />Merle..........Merlesworldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00573975763012762631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2664393407924733681.post-80583306103945663452014-06-20T06:59:23.782+09:302014-06-20T06:59:23.782+09:30And you told me my first chapter was almost as lon...And you told me my first chapter was almost as long as a book!!!!
