“Okay I am coming.” Bette called back

“I better go before she dumps all the luggage out.” Bette said getting up from the table and leaving the room.

“So Tina tell how does it feel to be a mom?” Hazel said moving to the chair next to Tina.

“It is absolutely wonderful. If I knew how good it feels every time she calls me moma I would have had one a lot sooner.” Tina said.

“So the adoption is final?” Hannah said.

“Yep. She is all mine, and Bette’s of course.” Tina said.

“Well you 3 sure are a cute family.” Winnie said. Jess ran back into the dining room.

“Moma we still can’t find them.” Jess said pulling on Tina’s hand. “Mom said I can’t go unless I find them. Will you come help me?” Jess asked.

“Yeah I’ll be right there.” Tina said getting up with her plate and walked to the kitchen.

“Come now pleeeaaasssee.” Jess pleaded and gave Tina a puppy dog face.

“Hold on a minute I have to take my plate to the kitchen.” Tina said Jess still pulling her towards the bedroom.

“Here I’ll take it.” Josie said taking the plate from Tina.

“Thanks Mom.” Tina said allowing Jess to pull out of the room. Hannah and Hazel followed them out.

“Well that little girl certainly has Tina wrapped around her finger.” Winnie said to Josie.

“Tina is not the only one.” Josie said pointing to Buster. Buster noticing that now the attention of the women was about to be turned to him.

“So Dave why don’t we head up to the driving range.” Buster said getting up from his chair very quickly.

“That sounds like a great idea Buster.” Dave said following Buster out of the room.

Josie’s Navigator

Hannah and Bette sat in the front, Tina and Hazel in the middle and the kids on the 3^rd row.

“So Tina tell me about the wedding. I want to know everything.” Hazel said.

“Well it is going to be on Dec 15 at the Ranch.” Tina said

“What Ranch?” Hazel interrupted.

“Mine.” Jess chimed in from the back seat.

“What hers? I am confused.” Hazel said.

“Jess inherited it. We love it up there. I had forgotten how much I loved to ride.” Tina said.
