(The Song Remembers When by Trisha Yearwood)

"I guess something must have happened

And we must have said goodbye

And my heart must have been broken

Though I can't recall just why

The song remembers when"

"Honey what exactly are you tearing our house apart looking for?" Natalie asked as she came into the living room where Jamie was digging through.

"Umm... nothing." Jamie said lying.

"So you just felt like tearing our house apart for the heck of it?"

"Not exactly."

Natalie went over to Jamie and put her arms around her. "Jamie just stop for two seconds ok?"

Jamie sighed. "You know what I'm looking for don't you, ma?"

"Yep. What do you sit down so we can talk?"

"Sure." Jamie said as she led her mom to her room.

"Here." Natalie said handing the letter to Jamie.

"When did you find it?"

"Last night."

"Does dad know?"

"Yeah I told him."

"He's mad right?"

"Yeah but I explained it to him."

"Does that mean you're not mad."

"A little. You know that letter was to me from Grandpa Ben?"

"Oh." Jamie said sadly.

"Yeah oh. What if I hadn't seen it? And Ben just though I didn't care enough to come to my mom's birthday?"

"That would be bad."

"Yeah real bad. That's why you can't keep doing this."

"But what if Grandpa R.J. writes me?"

"Then either your dad or I will give it to you."

"Dad wouldn't."

"I'll make sure he does."

"Really? You promise?"

"Only if you can promise me that we can trust you not to take the mail and hide it. Can we trust you?"

"Yeah you can."

Natalie smiled. "Good now let's go clean up this house before your father gets home and loses it."

"Sounds like a plain." Jamie said as he and Natalie got up and headed into the living room.

Then they heard the door slam. "What in the hell happened her?" Antonio said mad.

Natalie and Jamie both laughed.

"Ronda! Ronda stop running!" Nigel screamed running after his daughter who was running through Foxy Roxy's.

"Wait where are you going?" Rex asked picking up his little sister.

"To find you."

"Well you found me, so what can I help you with?"

"Right now just hide me from my daddy."

"No problem. Hide under this table." Rex said putting her down.

She crawled under the table and Rex put down the tablecloth.

"Rex have you seen your sister?" Nigel asked coming in.

"Which one? I mean I haven't seen either one but which one are you talking about?"

"What do you mean which one?"

"I have two: Natty and Rhonie."

The door opened and Roxy came in. "Oh my two favorite men. I've got news that will make you two so happy."

"What is it?" Rex asked.

"Your sister is coming home."

"Natalie's coming home?" Rhonda asked coming out.

"Haven't seen her have you, Rex?" Nigel asked mad.

"Now see Patrick that's what your father does for a living." Jess said to her son.

Cris stopped painting and turned around. "What are you two doing here?"

"Thought we'd surprise you. Are you surprised?"

Cris smiled. "Very. Actually it's prefect timing."

"Really?" Jess asked.

"Yes, I was running out of ideas to paint."

"And we give you ideas?"

"You are my idea."

"What?" She asked confused.

"Yeah I'd love to paint you two."

"With the way we look right now?"

"Exactly the way you look."

"We didn't come here to be painted."

"I know that but will you let me?"

Jess sighed. "Anything for art I guess."

"And for me?"

"Right now I'm doing this for art not for you."
