“Let’s go, mommy, let’s go,” Olivia said, tugging on Serena’s arm. Oliver and Santino were already walking ahead, and Olivia was impatient to catch up. “We’re going,” Serena said with a chuckle.

“We are falling behind!” Olivia said with a dramatic wail.

“You can go and catch up,” Serena said. She pushed Olivia forward. Olivia ran off to catch up with her twin and uncle.

Santino had dropped by at their house for a visit. He said he had a special game planned for the kids. Serena couldn’t say no. She wanted to see what it was that Santino had planned, and she wanted the kids to have the chance to get out and play in the woods.
