Kowalski – Family Concerns
The last family to disembark were the Kowalski family. Lance’s wife had recently died, leaving him in charge of their twin sons, Demario and Reilly. Lance loved children, but two on his own were quite a handful. Reilly always wanted attention, whilst Demario was forever crawling off on his own to go and splash in a nearby puddle or possibly crawl across the road…
Lance cared a lot about his children, but had realised before coming to the island that several families starting out in a new place would mean many children, to populate the town. As a result, he’d bought a great many items that he thought the other young families would like to buy. Not unexpectedly, Shayne and Miriam turned up, and bought lots of items – more than they could possibly need for just Ena. Edgar also arrived wanting to buy lots of baby items, but became angry at the sight of the Sahrs and left without buying anything.
Shayne and Miriam had brought their daughter, Ena along whilst they shopped – she quickly found her way inside to play with the boys! All three children got along so well that Shayne and Miriam left Ena to play for a few hours, as they had to go home to “continue unpacking”.
Lance loved having the three kids play together – and he was well reimbursed for his time watching Ena.
Notes: I’ve been wanting to set up a daycare in the Sims 2 for YEARS – but I’ve never really been able to. I found that this one worked rather well, but was so excited by testing it out that I didn’t get very many pictures of the toddlers playing together before they grew up. Maybe sometime in the future once there are more kids in the neighbourhood…
