Angus would never tell Edna this, but he worried about her just about as much as she worried about their guests, if not more. He wanted her to be this happy and relaxed all the time. He hoped to convince her to take a much needed vacation after the holidays, perhaps to Spain or Italy. It would take some work, but now that Maggie and Dylan were with them, he hoped she could relinquish her duties for a week or two.

He finished his breakfast and watched as Edna daintily picked up a piece of toast and took a bite. His fingers were drawn to the blue streak in her hair, which had fallen into her face. He gently tucked it behind her ear, brushing her cheek with his knuckles as he did so. Edna rewarded him with a loving smile, which lit the emerald green eyes he cherished.

“It appears it may snow later today,” Edna said. “I’m going to take the lasses shopping for Christmas gifts. Maybe ye should do the same with the gents. We can meet for lunch at the pub.”

“Who will watch the wee ones?”

“Teddy can watch them.”

“Teddy? Do ye believe ’tis a good idea?”

“Aye. He’ll be fine. I ken they are a handful, but Teddy can handle it. They’ll be here at the inn. If he needs our help, he can call us on the cell phone. We’re only moments away.”

“I’d like to see ye convince young Ashley of that.”

“She’s a new mother and, yes, she’s a bit overprotective, but this will be a good time for her to place some trust in others.” Edna put down her fork and faced Angus. “They’re off to see Dr. Ferguson ye ken. I’m hoping he’ll put her mind at ease about Emma’s health. I’d like to find a way to help with that when she returns to Breaghacraig.”

“I’m sure ye’ll think of something,” Angus winked. His belief in Edna and her ability to make any situation right was evident. Occasionally the way she reached her goal was a little worrisome, but things always ended up exactly where she wanted them to be.

“Alright then. I’ll take the men shopping as ye wish, but if they’re anything like me, they’ll nae be verra excited about it.”

Edna’s joy at his pronouncement seemed to light up her face, which made Angus feel quite good about his decision. He’d do anything for Edna, even go shopping.
