Dear Friends,

Im so pleased that my publisher has decided to reissue these two oldies but goodies. Fathers Day was originally published in 1991 and The Courtship of Carol Sommars in 1990. This was when my own children were teenagers.

In fact, pay close attention to the rap song in the first chapter of The Courtship of Carol Sommars. My son Ted and his friend Bill Hall wrote that while they were in high school. (And now that the book has been given a second life, I wonder if Teds going to demand a share of the royalties!)

The 1990s were crazy years for my husband and me, since all four of our children were teenagers. In retrospect its probably a miracle that we survived, with all those hormones bouncing off the walls. Those were also the years when our youngest son, Dale, decided to read his oldest sisters diary and write notes in the margins. Notes like Im telling Mom. And You are so busted.

Now two of my favorite books written during that time are available again. Theyll be hitting the shelves just as my oldest granddaughter turns fourteen. I can only smile as I watch my daughter dealing with her teenage daughter. Life has come full circle. (Good luck, Jody!)

I guess you could say these stories have a common themelove might be closer than you think. I hope you enjoy them both. Note that Ive updated them a little so the details are in keeping with changes in contemporary culture, technology and slang.

I always enjoy hearing from my readers. You can reach me through my Web site at www.debbiemacomber.com or by writing to me at P.O. Box 1458, Port Orchard, WA 98366.

One

I cant believe Im doing this, Robin Masterson muttered as she crawled into the makeshift tent, which was pitched over the clothesline in the backyard of her new home.

Come on, Mom, ten-year-old Jeff urged, shifting to make room for her. Its nice and warm in here.

Down on all fours, a flashlight in one hand, Robin squeezed her way inside. Jeff had constructed the flimsy tent using clothespegs to hold up the blankets and rocks to secure the base. The space was tight, but she managed to maneuver into her sleeping bag.

Isnt this great? Jeff asked. He stuck his head out of the front opening and gazed at the dark sky and the spattering of stars that winked back at them. On second thought, Robin decided they were laughing at her, those stars. And with good reason. There probably wasnt another thirty-year-old woman in the entire state of California who wouldve agreed to this craziness.

It was the first night in their new house and Robin was exhausted. Theyd started moving out of the apartment before five that morning and shed just finished unpacking the last box. The beds were assembled, but Jeff wouldnt hear of doing anything as mundane as sleeping on a real mattress. After waiting years to camp out in his own backyard, her son wasnt about to delay the adventure by even one night.

Robin couldnt let him sleep outside alone and, since he hadnt met any neighbors yet, there was only one option left. Surely thered be a Mother of the Year award in this for her.

You want to hear a joke? Jeff asked, rolling on to his back and nudging her.

Sure. She swallowed a yawn, hoping she could stay awake long enough to laugh at the appropriate time. She neednt have worried.

For the next half hour, Robin was entertained with a series of riddles, nonsense rhymes and off-key renditions of Jeffs favourite songs from summer camp.

Knock knock, she said when it appeared her son had run through his repertoire.

Whos there?

Wanda.

Wanda who?

Wanda who thinks up these silly jokes?

Jeff laughed as though shed come up with the funniest line ever devised. Her sons enthusiasm couldnt help but rub off on Robin and some of her weariness eased. Camping was funsort of. But itd been years since shed slept on the ground and, frankly, she couldnt remember it being quite this hard.

Do you think well be warm enough? she teased. Jeff had used every blanket they owned, first to construct the tent and then to pad it. To be on the safe side, two or three more were piled on top of their sleeping bags on the off-chance an arctic frost descended upon them. It was spring, but a San Francisco spring could be chilly.

Sure, he answered, missing the kidding note in her voice. But if you get cold, you can have one of mine.

Im fine, she assured him.

You hungry?

Now that she thought about it, she was. Sure. Whatcha got?

Jeff disappeared into his sleeping bag and returned a moment later with a limp package of licorice, a small plastic bag full of squashed marshmallows and a flattened box of raisins. Robin declined the snack.
