9. Rest EZ

August 30, 2020 ~ Nicole Smeltzer ~ 2 Comments

In Nicki and Ashley's room... Nicki studies the new room setup while Ashley writes in her notebook.

Meanwhile, in Chrissy and Charlotte's room.... Chrissy studies the room setup while Charlotte reads a joke book.

Chrissy: I'm pretty sure their room is bigger than ours.

Nicki: Is this good feng shui? I don't think you're supposed to sleep under a window.

Chrissy: I swear it's at least this much wider.

Nicki: If only the window was a bit more over that way... It just doesn't seem to flow, you know?

Charlotte: Well, do you want to rebunk? We'd have more floor space...

Ashley: Um, not really. Do you want to move the beds again? We could rebunk...

Chrissy: Maybe. But if we do, I get the bottom bunk this time!

Nicki: Sounds good to me! Same as last time?

Charlotte and Ashley: AGREED!

The girls all lean outside their doorways, calling for Dad.

Dad, busy assembling a new bed for the baby: Nope.

6. New Everythings

August 10, 2020 ~ Nicole Smeltzer ~ 7 Comments

The family sits at the table eating dinner. Mom and Dad look content. The children look astonished.

Chrissy: But WHY are we moving?

Dad: Because I got a new job.

Nicki: ...but why?

Dad: It's a better opportunity

Ashley: but why Florida?

Mom, winking and ruffling Ashley's hair: You'll love it!

Charlotte: But what about.... everything?

Fuzzy collage of memories from living in Massachusetts

Dad: You'll make new everythings.

The girls eat their dinner glumly. Chrissy looks thoughtful and plotting.

Chrissy: The new house will be bigger, right?

Dad: Yup!

Chrissy: So will I get my own room?!

Dad: I'm afraid not. The new house will have 4 bedrooms.

Chrissy does math in her head.

Chrissy: But that's enough! You and Mom will share a room. Then the 2 oldest and the 2 youngest will each share a room; that's fair. And then I get my own!

Dad: Nooooo....

Chrissy: That's not fair! Why does Nicki get her own room? She always gets everything!

Dad: No, not Nicki. The baby will get her own room.

Chrissy: Tess. Tess gets her own room. Are you kidding me?

Dad: Trust me, NO ONE wants to share a room with a baby, least of all me. This move can't come soon enough.

The family returns to their dinner. Chrissy sticks her tongue out at Tess from across the table. Tess blissfully, messily eats her spaghetti.
