The twins were very different from each other. Owen could clearly see himself in Lizzie. She was very confident, too confident in fact.
She believed she knew best about anything and seem to think herself almost invincible.
Henry on the other hand was a quiet, shy lad.
With the opening of Blumpbob Pictures Studio a young celebrity couple have moved into town. Benedict and Natalie Westgate were rising stars. Not yet in movies but with small parts in well known TV programs. The whole town was abuzz with the news and Owen hoped to get a chance to greet them soon in his official capacity as Mayor.
All thoughts of this were soon pushed to one side when the River family were plunged into mourning again when Merlin's younger sister Gwen Nagi died. Her widower Youssef was heartbroken.
Merlin did what he could to support Youssef but before the end of the year he also died. Poldark their oldest son now owned the house and Owen made sure he knew he had support if he needed it.
Merlin felt rather alone as the last of the siblings to be alive, but was grateful to be surrounded by children.
Dominic and Hermoine's youngest set of twins were now toddling around the place, Callum had inherited Dominic's startling eyes.
Merlin's own youngest son was also learning to walk.
Merlin was too old to be crawling around with him but enjoyed watching him play. He still marveled at his young wife, who seemed very content with her old husband and little boy.
Still he knew she missed her family and hoped that she might get to make some friends her own age here in town. Owen and Martha were very kind to her but they were still considerably older than her. Merlin wanted her to have some good friends to support her when his death finally came. At ninety seven he felt as if he was living on borrowed time.
Owen's twins look so cute. Lizzie definitely has a stroppy look about her. I wouldn't want to disagree with her. Henry looks annoyed in the photo; I wonder if he was losing the chess game.....
ReplyDeleteCelebrities in town, yay! Let’s hope they bring more money into the town. I wonder if Owen will get to meet them. Love Benedict's hair......
Oh dear. The older generation is passing on. I do wonder how much longer Merlin has. It would be awful him dying through he is very old now. Poldark is not a bad looking sort. How many kids does he have?
Little Callum is sooo cute and with the fab eyes. Definitely going to get the girls when he grows up. I do wonder if Aisha will make new friends soon.
Time just goes so fast………
I designed the celebrities myself, I rather like them. I am hoping they will have cute babies. Interesting their babies I think should be celebrities too. Famous because they are children of famous people.
DeleteMerlin's age clock has got stuck I think, I have installed something to restart it so he might be going soon. Owen only has four days till he is an elder so really Merlin should be long gone.
Poldark has one child a little boy with his girfriend, whom he doesnt live with.
Aisha making friends will be the next post!
