A Happy Mother's Day?

May 13, 2012
There are still problems in the clan, but Teddy thought it would be wrong to not have a cocktail with their mom on this Mother's Day. So Felicia and Beatrice came over to the house while Nibs was out golfing.
Teddy served wine and cookies for a late afternoon gathering in the back yard. She made sure to get Beatrice's favorite bouquet: roses and stargazers. Felicia, feeling tension in the air, kept the convo light, just discussing the weather.
Beatrice couldn't help herself however and showed her claws after a few sips of Chardonnay: "Teddy, when are you going to start planning Felicia's wedding? You sure are dragging your paws on this!"
Felicia felt horrible because she knew Teddy had already tried to make some plans and was being helpful. So she changed the subject by talking about the flowers.
But you could see the steam coming off Teddy's fur.
Good thing there was plenty of vino to calm everyone's nerves.

  3. Maybe Felicia should have a destination wedding. It's been a long time since Teddy went away on a vacation.
