As Gina drives us home, she’s kind of glowing…it’s more than just fireworks. She says, “That was really fun! Brian is such a nice guy—Lacey, you’re lucky to have him for a coach.”

In the backseat, both Sunny and Paige give me the thumbs-up (which isn’t easy for Paige, since her head is poking out of the sunroof again because of the column).

Here’s where I need to be a sneaky fairy godmother and gently push Gina toward the correct decision about getting married. I don’t want to say anything too obvious. I want to say something subtle, like…

“Mom! I think you should marry the coach right away!” Sunny blurts out.

If there was a class in subtle, Sunny would flunk.

Gina blushes and says, “Don’t be silly.”

Sunny leans forward. “But you like him, don’t you?”

“Sure I like him.”

“Really, really like him?”

“How could I ‘really, really like him’ so soon? I just met him today! Don’t you think that’s a little fast?”

I say, “When you like somebody, you’ve got to pounce. You’re not getting any younger.” (I thought that was a good point, but Katarina groans from behind my gardenias and kicks me in the head.)

Gina laughs. “You’re right, he’s my last chance. Everybody, hang on. I’m turning this Hyundai around and taking him ring shopping right now.”

OMG! “Really?”

“No.” Gina gives us all a smile. “I know you girls have been worried about me, but I’m going to be just fine, even if I never get married again.”

If she only knew what’s in store for her!
