Trying to avoid bogging Dub and his family with too much bad news at one time, I decided not to mention that we also lost the youngest of the Brown Triplets, Jamelia Serrano (ATC Part 13 – Banks Day 46.4). But I still wanted to honor and remember her here. Jamelia was a lot of fun to…
Clyde Tilley (Frog Scenario: Part 7 – Day 46.4) played his role as Dub’s adversary perfectly (he was one of my favorite characters and basically wrote himself). He often came across as critical and harsh, but his entire goal in life was to keep Maia safe and shield her from the pains of the world….
I’m sitting in my office, staring at the blank computer screen, thinking about everything Maia said. Her words, “I don’t think we will make it…” cause my insides to soften into jelly. I really messed up this time, and my words and declarations of love weren’t enough to fix it. I have to do something…change…
My phone rings as I’m standing there, thinking how wrong I was about everything. It’s Luca. Of course, it is—calling right when I feel like the biggest a-hole. We catch up for a while as he asks how things are going. I tell him about Clyde moving in next door and how Tami started school….
I’m up early the following day for a morning jog without Hiro for the first time. As much as I’d love to take him, I realize he’s getting older and can no longer keep up the pace. But it’s probably best because I’m not just out here jogging aimlessly today—I also have a secret mission….
Luna Tilley (Frog Scenario: Part 4 – Day 45.4) may have been a pain for Dub, but she brought a lot of personality and humor to the story. May she rest well in Sim ‘Kitty’ heaven! (Generation 4 Chapter Summaries) Thanks for reading! Please hit the “like” button if you’ve enjoyed what you read! Keep…
Maia puts on a brave face and goes outside to meet Tami as she gets off the school bus. Maia: Hey there, tadpole! How was school today? Tambara: It was excellent! I met some new friends. Maia leans over and kisses Tami’s cheek. Maia: There’s something that we need to talk about. Tambara: Is it…
It’s Tami’s first day of school. I enter her bedroom, expecting her to be dressed and ready, but she’s still in her pajamas. Wade: What’s going on here? Didn’t mommy set out the clothes you’re supposed to wear? Tambara: Yes, but I don’t want to wear them. The sweater is itchy, and I don’t like…
With a few hours to spare before Mase and Zoe’s wedding, I step out of the house to enjoy a long jog. The only thing I miss about country living is the cool, crisp morning air, so I’ll enjoy as much of it as possible while here. Shortly after Dub has left for his jog,…
Help me say goodbye to the oldest Brown Triplet, Jalin Brown (ATC Part 13 | Banks Days 43.4)**. Jalin started a media company with his high school friend and enjoyed many successes. He didn’t play a huge part in the later chapters of the Banks Dynasty, but he was the one who influenced Dub to…
