I’m so glad you’re happy at last, Cat. I’m so glad we’re all happy!

Re: Ocean Springs
I’m so excited! The next medical conference is in Ocean Springs! Dan and I are going to take some extra time off so we can have a nice long visit with you and Tyler, Cat! I can’t wait to see your clinic!
I can’t tell you how adorable Lindy Cat is! I’m getting ideas!

Re: News!
The ultrasound confirmed it! I’m carrying twins. A girl and boy, it looks like. Michael and I are walking on air! He’s moved his next picture on location in Peppertown because he wants the twins born here instead of Hollywood. He’s the sweetest man in the world, as well as the most gorgeous, and I hope both babies look just like him!
Miss Josephine is still very much alive and kicking. Michael and I wrote another bit part for her in our next horror flick. She’s going to be an alien from Mars, and she goes around the boarding house making alien monster sounds.
The babies are kicking like crazy, and I can’t wait to have them to get here so they can meet Lindy Cat. I just know the girls are going to be best friends!

Re: Open House
All right. Help me out, here. I want every one of you at the Open House for my art gallery. Clemmie, I’d like to have it before your babies come. Are you too big to travel? Janet, I want to make sure you’re not at a medical conference, and Joanna, I don’t want you and Kirk to be off on your boat.
Oh, wait a minute. I can’t talk about this right now. Sam’s car is coming down the street, and I’ve got to put the closed sign on the gallery! Florence is still a small Southern town. They’d be flabbergasted if they walked in on their favorite banker buck naked and cavorting outrageously with that scandalous Venus de Molly!

Re: The Boat
Kirk and I have been on the boat for a month. It’s beautiful out here in the Caribbean. And guess what! I’M PREGNANT!!! And I didn’t even have to punch a hole in his condom!!! I just got him so excited he forgot, but he’s ECSTATIC!!!
Oh, I can’t wait to get home and buy some cute maternity clothes. I probably won’t be showing for a while, but who cares? What’s the fun of being pregnant if you can’t LOOK IT!!! I want everybody to KNOW!!!
Molly, we’re heading home know. Ever since Kirk found out I’m pregnant, he’s been racing toward home. Though I’m healthy as a horse, he thinks I need to be under the care of a doctor. Probably 24/7. I’ll deal with that when I get home. Right now, I’m stripping off my clothes and planning to dance naked on the deck in the moonlight. I feel like a GODDESS!!!

Re: The pregnancy brigade
All right, all this unbridled joy is almost getting to me! Still, there is too much to do to get Russ’s grove to its full potential before I opt for motherhood and maternity clothes. Besides, I don’t want them if they don’t look good with boots!
Molly, Russ and I are going to be in Florence next week to visit Mother and Jed. You and I will plan the best Open House Florence have ever seen!
Cat, if you and Tyler can’t find what you want in the Cumberland Valley, come to Florida to look. There are some great big spreads around here that would be perfect for an animal preserve. The climate would work, too! Besides, I’d love to show you around. Say yes!
By the way, do you realize that Rule Four is now moot! It’s the passing of an era. I was thinking I ought to come up with a new set of rules. Number One would be: The Dixie Virgins must get together once a year for a reunion!

Re: Invitation
Bea, that’s a fabulous idea! You are all invited to the first reunion here at Camelot!
Much love,
Cat
