The aftermath

(Doorbell ringing)

Diamond: "I got it, Mom."

Diamond: "It's Mrs. Reivers. Please come in."

Crystal: "Let her in."

                                      

Chandra: "I hope you don't mind me stopping by like this. I just wanted to apologize for missing the Mother Day festivities."

Diamond: "It's ok Mrs. Reivers. I gave Chad your gift. I hope you like it."

Chandra: "I haven't opened it yet. I tried to catch an earlier flight but it just wasn't happening."

Crystal: "Chandra come on in and sit down and relax for awhile. We don't get to see you much."
Chandra: "I can't stay long."

Chandra: "I really wished I could of been there."
Crystal: "I'm sure everyone missed you. We sat around and just relaxed all day."
Diamond: "Trust me when she said she relaxed all day. My mother had her spot in the pool and that where she stayed, hee, hee. She had folks worried."

Crystal: "I didn't see any reason to move. You made sure everything was catered to your every needs."
Chandra: "You really stayed in one spot?
Crystal: "Sure did!"

Diamond: "Trust me Mrs. Reivers, I am feeling the aftermath too. It really was worth it. Everyone was smiling from ear to ear. There was plenty of everything."
Crystal: "Yes, her team did a great job."
Chandra: "I won't miss the next one. I better get going."

Chandra: "I really want to apologize to you in person. I really didn't mean to stop by unannounced."

Diamond: It's no biggie."

Crystal: "Don't worry about that. You can stop by anytime."

Chandra: "Thanks. Take care ladies."

Have a great week everybody!

Chandra's finally home.

 

 

Chad: "Hello Diamond, how are you?"

Diamond: "hee, hee. Hi. Your tone is so serious."

Chad: "Oh my bad. I was just wondering what you are doing later today."

Diamond: "I'm watching my brother and sisters. I took them to the park, tired them out. Then I brought them home, fed them and put them down for their naps. Even Courtney is sleep. You know how little princess is, hee hee."
Chad: "I forgot. You did say you had to babysit."
Diamond: "I don't consider it babysitting. When my mother and father are busy that what I do. I watch my brother and sisters. What is going on with you? You sure are sounding funny today."
Chad; "I'm sorry I was just wondering if you wanted to join me and my mother for dinner. We are headed over to PF Chang.  She's finally home, well at least for the time being."

Diamond: "Oh, that's all you had to say! I don't think I will be able to make it. My mother is at the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African American Art tonight. I'm sorry."
Chad: "It no problem. Maybe next time. I'll talk with you later."
Diamond: "Please tell her hello for me. Bye."

Chandra: "So what's the verdict?" Diamond will be joining us?"
Chad: "No she is watching her brother and sisters. Her parents are working tonight."

Chandra: "Well, there is always next time. I don't have any business trips in the works so I will be around for a good while. Cheer up Sweetie, there will be other times we can get together. Me and your father just adore Diamond."

Chad: "I know Mom.   So it is just me and you tongiht. So I better go get ready. Don't forget to say hi to our friends."
Chandra: "I will do that right now. Take your time, I'm in no hurry."

Chandra: "Hi Everyone. Yes I am finally home. Finally made it to Dotsville. I have been one of the most elusive dollies EVER for Brini! She lucked and found me on Amazon at a really good price. I am the original So In Style Babyphat Barbie Doll by Mattel. Fresh out the darn box. I arrived without my shoe on(What's with that Mattel??!!) I am wearing a black, red and pink hound's tooth printed suit (It is all one piece), pink printed top with the babyphat logo. Gray plastic hoop earrings, pink graphic headband and purple "designer glasses". My black wedge shoes are included and yes they are in the box. The're just are attached to my "designer tote bag" Good news though, I am articulated!"

Have a great week!
