Phillipa's


Christmas day and I arrived at Renee's at about 2pm.

Pippa : Hey! Sorry I came early, I wanted to help you cook dinner

Renee : Oh thank God. My husband is taking the kids to the mall so I am alone.


While cooking and preparing...

Renee : Oh I forgot to tell you that Lin and Jonathan are joining us too

Pippa : Oh great! The more the merrier right?

Renee : Totally

Pippa : Just sad that Jazzy won't be able to join us

Renee : I know!


At about 6pm we finished cooking. Minutes after, her kids and husband arrived.

Renee : Welcome back! This kids, is Aunt Pippa!

Pippa : Hey kids!

Kids : Hiiii!

Alexis : Nice to finally meet the great 'Amelie' and 'Eliza'

Pippa : And nice to finally meet my 'sister's' other half!

Renee : Okay kids, get ready for dinner okay.

Alexis : And I will too.


At about 7pm Renee and Alexis started letting the kids open the presents. While I was watching them, a complete family, it made me think of my daughter. I wish I could give that to my daughter when she was younger. Her meeting her father would be the best present for her.

A while after their gift-giving, Lin and Jonathan arrived

Lin : Merry Christmas everyone!

Alexis : Merry Christmas!

Jonathan : We bought gifts! For the kids...

Pippa : None for us?

Jonathan : Sorry, you're old now

Pippa : Ouch! Merry christmas to you!

Renee : You don't have a gift for them too Pippa, so it's a tie

Lin : Ouch Pippa

Pippa : I'm sorry, I didn't know you two were coming so the gifts we're only for the owners of this house.


Benjamin : Mommy, we're hungry!

Jonathan : Yeah mommy, we're hungry!

Renee : No, don't. Don't do that again

Pippa : Hahahaha


Dinner...

Renee : Pippa, you called Mira yet?

Pippa : Yeah but she won't answer my calls

Jonathan : She angry at you?

Pippa : I don't think so. Our last conversation was on the last night of previews

Renee : I'm sure, she'll call you before christmas ends

Pippa : She better


Lin : Who's Mira?

Renee : Her-

Pippa : Someone important in my life that you don't need to know about

Lin : Why not? I mean Jonathan knows her and we have known each other longer

Renee : Wait-what?!

Jonathan : Yeah...

Renee : What do you mean, you have known each other longer?!
