"So do you, Randi. Life must be good."
"The best. Oh, I fed Jarge and Mable. Would you guys mind if Val and I invited them in for the night, once in a while?"

"We agreed to let you guys stay so you could save your money to build your home."
"We are doing okay."
Randi kissed Matty quickly on the lips.
"You sure you don't want to come over to the other side."
