For Patrick, Timothy, and Julia
I n less than a year, I went to three weddings and one funeral. By late May (at the second wedding but before the funeral) I had decided it was going to be the worst year of my life.
The second wedding was actually a happy one from my point of view, but my smile muscles ached all the next day from the anxious grin Id forced to my lips. Being the daughter of the bride felt pretty peculiar.
My mother and her fianc strolled between the folding chairs arranged in her living room, ended up before the handsome Episcopalian priest, and Aida Brattle Teagarden became Mrs. John Queensland.
In the oddest way, I felt my parents had left home while I had stayed. My father and his second wife, with my half brother, Phillip, had moved across the country to California in the past year. Now my mother, though shed still be living in the same town, would definitely have new priorities.
That would be a relief.
So I beamed at John Queenslands married sons and their spouses. One of the wives was pregnantmy mother would be a stepgrandmother! I smiled graciously at Lawrencetons new Episcopal priest, Aubrey Scott. I oozed goodwill at the real estate salespeople from my mothers business. I grinned at my best friend, Amina Day, until she told me to relax.
