Good-bye
Mackenzie:
I decided to take my whole family to the Old Pier Beach. So many things had happened in this town but it was the beach where my ancestors came when they needed to think.
As my children and family gathered around me I began to talk.
“Guys you are the best thing that has ever happened to this family. It is hard to believe that my family has been here for 10 generations. “I said with tears in my eyes.
As my family crowded around to hear my words I began to cry.
As I parted through my children I walked to my new heiress, Genesis.
“Genesis, you are beautiful and intelligent. You are exactly who everyone would pick..except me sweetheart” I said slowly
I turned and saw Genevieve by herself.
“Your the heiress Genevieve” I yelled and smiled
Genevieve looked at me and screamed “YAHOOOOOO, MEEEEE?”
Afterwards I pulled Genesis aside and she said “Why not me Mommy?”
I looked into my little girl and she put her head down.
“I didn’t pick you sweetheart because…Deidre stood for the struggling girl trying to make it above the masses. You my darling are gifted and will not have a hard time life. Genevieve has stood in your shadow her whole life and still shines, her name truly fits her. She is the embodiment of our race of women.” I said with tears strolling down my cheeks.
Genesis hugged me and nodded her head. I held her close and said “Come on baby lets go home.”

It’s impressive that a person can keep this up for so long.
