Kickass, the doorstop dog, congratulates the keeper and Phyllis for the successful hosting of Phyllis’s family gathering during which there were no fisticuffs, shoving or shouting but rather hugs, handshakes and harmony.
As is the case with all mothers, Phyllis has not retired from any of her matriarchal responsibilities, but revels in the results of her previous efforts as Gina, Kevin and Todd and their families all exhibit an appreciation for the qualities of love and good sense instilled in them by “mom.”
The beat goes on and it is wonderful to witness.
