Sahr – Family Time
Miriam was happy to meet Alyssa, who didn’t seem as intolerant as Edgar. Unfortunately though, they only had a few minutes to chat before she ran inside to tend to Ena, who she could hear crying.
Ena was dealing very well with moving to a new place, but her sleeping patterns were a bit disturbed. She seemed to be awake all the time.
Miriam was surprised by how much she enjoyed looking after a toddler, considering that children had never really been in her lifetime plans. She played with Ena a lot, as Shayne had found himself a job off the island in an attempt to get some money.
Alyssa hadn’t come back after their first brief initial meeting, so Miriam spent a lot of the rest of the day playing with Ena, and teaching her to talk.
Ena, however, preferred to be on her own, talking to her Wobbly Wabbit toy. Only the toy would understand how much she missed where she came from. She was very happy to see her daddy come home early, as it was a special night for Ena.
Shayne and Miriam invited Lance Kowalski to Ena’s small, but private, Transition party. They were all excited by the prospect of living permanently on Forgotten Island, and having a Transition party and a child growing up seemed to cement this in their lives.
Notes: Apologies for the brevity/lack of inspiration in this one – I was going to make it a lot more interesting, but I realised the pictures I’d taken weren’t that inspiring. I’ve been struggling with this one for the last few days, and just decided to get it over and done with, and hopefully I can move on to a more interesting update in the next few days!

I enjoyed this up update like I enjoyed all the others.
I know how it feels to look at the photos and realize that you can’t come up with an interesting picture to go along with them. It sucks and it makes the writing difficult.

Aww, I didn’t think this entry was bad! I enjoyed it. But I can completely understand. Sometimes my sims just do boring things like get promotions. How am I supposed to make that interesting? It’ll get easier once you have some interwoven storylines going. Things just seem to flow.

I didn’t think it was BAD, just not as good as I wanted it to be
but thanks for the support guys! Hopefully their storylines will get a bit more mixed up soon and it’ll get better too.

I like that you cast Alyssa as more open minded than her husband, it’s a nice balance but could also lead to significant drama when Edgar finds out that his wife is out and about being nice to the weird people and broadening her horizons.
I hear ya about uninspiring pics. Sometimes I get a good one and I’m off to the races other times I just stare and wonder why I even snapped it lol
