@ Katluver: Wunn wasn't doing anything in particular, probably watching his Deathfish (oh the irony!) I'm pretty sure it was a matter of me forgetting just how old he was and him dying of old age - well, attempting to anyway. Oops. I even had Lolly make a bunch of extra Ambrosia meals and store them in the treasure chest, just for these occasions. Therie isn't skilled enough yet to make Ambrosia.
@ Isys: No problem. It was super fun when it worked for me!

Tu: Week 16 (Monday through Saturday)Well, when your week starts off like that, best be ready for anything!
Even though this picture was taken on Sunday, Therie still wants me to include it. Something about having to show off her fabulous new maternity dress! One of a kind design. Blah, blah, blah. I'm a guy, I don't get the whole "oh my gosh, have to show everybody this!" Anyway, here is her dress under better lighting.
After all the Grim excitement, Marc hops out and takes Lolly's latest favorite toy out for a spin. I think he's enjoying himself!
All I can say is at least she finishes cooking my favorite meal, before the labour pains start. It would have been such a shame if the baby had caused her to burn the grilled cheese.
With the future as a single mother staring her in the face ... umm, sqeezing her insides? ... Therie calmly gathers herself together and heads for the hospital alone.
Everyone, please welcome my second grandbaby: Fhore Moe Sunburst! (Moe in honour of her Daddy, Moses.)
Her application papers have vapourized it seems! Therie still does not receive her mat leave but finds time for a quick snuggle with her daughter before catching the car pool to work. I should go over there and give her new boss a piece of my mind!
Therie heads for bed as soon as she gets home from work, so that she is fully rested when Fhore wakes in the morning. I get the delight of putting my little granddaughter to bed. Grandpa card and everything, you know.
Moses pops out to meet his daughter but misses her bedtime by a half hour! We tell him to come a little earlier tomorrow night.
Yes, I know I should be sculpting or running on the treadmill, but how can anyone deny me the joy of snuggling my granddaughter?! I dare you to try and take her out of my arms!
Therie is trying to move on with her life, being a single mother and working full time is wearing her down everyday. She's even staying in touch with all her close friends, here and in France. Not sure if this is a weak moment or the right moment, but Wilbert Sanford becomes more than a friend out on the front porch.
Moses is still making his nightly rounds and catches a nap in the spot where he slept only twice. I think he's still obsessed with her in some way.
Then before we know it, it's time for our little sunshine to have her birthday. I invite the whole family again and a few family friends.
It's been a long time, but it looks like Fhore has her grandfather Marc's hair! Her favorite colour is blue, just like her Mom.
Wilbert is invited over during Therie's next day off and she has a huge surprise for him! And all of us really.
With that, Wilbert joins the family. This may all seem a little bit fast, whirlwind actually, but Wilbert and Therie have been best friends since childhood and they may even have gotten married earlier if Moses hadn't refused to give up. I'm glad she found someone who adores her and can provide love and help in raising Fhore. My Therie is too young to be facing a Immortal lifetime alone already.
Great Grandpa Wunn sits young Fhore down for her first serious conversation.
As cute as she is, Fhore has no problems expressing her opinion! After an entire day of posing for sculptures, portraits, and photographs she has had enough!
Here is the new and improved look of Wilbert Sanford Sunburst. Interestingly enough, him and Therie are the exact same age. Looks like he should be around all the way to her Ambrosia party!
I leave you with this final picture: no your eyes aren't messing with your head. That really is my Dad, Dynasty founder on his third time through elderhood, doing laundry. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks!
Next Week: Tu starts the week at
92 91 days - will he make it?!! Does the Grim make another appearance, or tu?
