Picket Fences! Part 37.2
A few days later at Mary Lou's house . . .
The family and their best friends celebrated their youngest daughter Carrie's birthday. Peter brought the toddler to her birthday cake.
He helped her blow out the candles.
When he placed her on the floor, Carrie did the "toddler dance" and . . .
Grew up into a cute child who favors her mama Mary Lou.
Kevin grabbed Carrie and gave her a "noogie".
"Ow it hurts!", she screamed.
"What did you do that for?", she cried.
"Because I wanted to", laughed Kevin.
When they were in the livingroom a few minutes later, Kevin got mad, but not at Carrie.
He was watching Larry flirting with Joy and was mad at Larry.
(As all Simmers know, a Sim child gets upset when they see their parent doing romantic actions with someone other than their other parent)
Kevin gave Larry a dirty look as he walked out of the room.
Carrie was playing with her doll and was unconcerned with a silly boy.
Kevin went outside and sit in the swing on the backporch.
Julie came out and sit down beside him.
"What's wrong with you?", she asked
"I don't know. It sounds stupid, but when I saw my dad flirting with my mom, I got mad at him", said Kevin.
"Whenever I see my mom and dad doing stuff like that, I feel happy. I know they love each other and will stay together forever", said Julie.
"See, that's how I should feel, but I don't. It don't make no sense for me to feel this way."
"I think you should tell your mom how you feel. Talking to her about it might help and it certainly can't hurt!". said Julie.
"I'll wait until after Arlene's wedding tomorrow. Mom's got enough on her mind already", said Kevin.
