Madigan and Missy
Madigan: Sit still.
Missy: (speaks around thumb) I don’t wanna go to church.
Madigan: We have to. It’s a family obligation.
Missy: What’s a obagation?
Madigan: ObLIgation. It’s when Mommy should have shown up for your Auntie Barb’s Labour Day barbecue and didn’t, and now she feels bad. So we’re going to see her at church.
Missy: (looks out the window for a moment) Is that like when you feel bad for not shaving your legs when Uncle Ken comes for a sleepover?
Madigan: (laughs) Yeah, sort of. But Uncle Ken doesn’t sleep over. Uncle Ken is Auntie Barb’s husband.
Missy: But he goes in your room sometimes after I go to bed at night.
Madigan: (regards Missy for a moment) You know what? Why don’t we skip church and go to McDonald’s for breakfast instead.
Missy: Yay!
Next stop: Monday, September 11th, 8:00am

Maybe next time she’ll clear her plans with Madigan first.

My kids had an Aunty Barb who unfortunately passed away 3/1/16. I feel sorry for this fictional Aunty Barb. Uncle Ken is an A-hole. So is mommy Madigan for that matter.
Love the premise and enjoying this series very much!

So sorry for your loss, my dear. You may eventually find that this “Auntie Barb” character has little in common with the one you knew.
Glad you’re enjoying the series. 🙂
