I took two beers with me when I went outside on the deck and gave one to Ryan on the way down to the beach before I started drinking mine. I kept looking across at my sister as she interacted with May's twins Ellen and Elliot while they played. They had joined together at this point, and she maintained a watchful eye on the two of them while she pushed her daughter to construct a castle for herself near the river.
It was occasionally strange to witness my sister in her role as a mother, but overall, she did a wonderful job. My mother was there to assist her and was entirely at ease in the situation. I observed her as she delighted in laughing at her twin grandkids, one of her four grandchildren, who provided her so much joy.
I did mention there were four. One year after Shauna
