Decisions, Decisions...

VF: 3 - Potter Family

A fair bit has changed here. When Zia was 52 and Logan was 53, a little orphaned boy came knocking on their door. I just didn't have the heart to turn him away. I was only able to restrain myself from making them have more when their three went off to college because I knew Zia didn't want kids and Logan was a maybe. But adopting was different... at least in my strange mind.

Anyway, Joseph (named by me) was 3 at the time. And even though I was lucky enough to have James who looked like a part of the family while he was adopted, Joey has blond hair. I can't hide that! Anyway, Logan died yesterday at the age of 59. Little Joey only had six years with him. Zia was 58 or 9 at the time. She's now 62 and Joey's 14. I hope she'll be able to last 'til he goes to college. He won't be getting the house, but I'd hate to see him left alone.

For the same reasons I explained above, I couldn't bring myself an little boy when he came to John and Mary's house long after Sammy went to college. They were both 61 at the time. I named the boy Adam (watch season 4 of Supernatural and you'll know why). Unfortunately John died when he was 63, and Mary died a year after that (I absolutely love the quote they gave for her). It's been a few game months now and Adam's 7. I keep trying to cheer him up, but he's still a bit blue. And now the dryer's on fire. I'm not even sure if he'll be able to make a snack to eat. So ... I think it's time I start the next generation. Sadly, that means Dean will be moving in and Adam will grow up and leave. But it has to be done.

By the way, I just found an old pic of John and Mary fixing the workshop wall with Katie and Laura. I'm not sure if I ever posted it, so here it is!

Again, not much to report here. Stephen got a letter from his big brother. Right after that he wrote me a letter, and then, as he was helping me clean up the house, he disappeared off to college, dropping the remote and leaving his elderly parents to clean up a big mess! Balun's 58 and Calla's 57.
