Text from Rebecca to Mom Squad Group Chat, July 2nd, 3:06 p.m.: I invited Sherri to come along on Gina and Steve’s pontoon ride on 4th, Hope ok?? 😊
Text from Gina to Mom Squad Group Chat, July 2nd, 3:07 p.m.: Maybe ask privately before you invite someone else? 😠
Text from Dawn to Gina, July 2nd, 3:08 p.m.: Hey you know you sent that to the whole group chat? 😦
Text from Gina to Dawn, July 2nd, 3:08 p.m.: Nooooooooo!! Crap. What do I do?
Text from Dawn to Gina, July 2nd, 3:09 p.m.: Play it off? 😖
Text from Gina to Mom Squad Group Chat, July 2nd, 3:12 p.m.: Of course! The more the merrier! 😘
Gina had sent Rebecca, like, five texts about the Holiday House Tour, and whether she was going to reclaim her spot on the committee. The first meeting was in August, so it was natural that Gina wanted to know. It was fine if Rebecca wanted the spot back; Gina just needed to plan her fall.
Rebecca left those texts unread. But she had time to text about Sherri coming on the boat. So we’ll let you decide where her priorities were.
And obviously nobody minded having an extra person on the pontoon. We were going to have to squeeze, but that wasn’t a big deal. The more the merrier is definitely a phrase we live by.
It was what Sherri did on the boat that was a little strange. We mean, you’re out on the water, you have to watch yourself! It was just a pontoon, we were only on the river, but still. You can’t be too careful. You can’t just go crazy like that.
