Amethyst- Young Adult

My last comments before I move out.  I'm all grown up, as my mother says a "beautiful young woman" no doubt she'll say that about Jade as well.

My birthday was wonderful and as I wished Vivek grew up into a charming young man. I proposed to him as soon as I was able, he said YES! and we're now engaged.  Just have to wait until I graduate before moving in with Vivek (he asked!) The parents don't want to miss that!

Jade - Child Years

My last baby has grown into a darling little girl, this is the one I'll be handing the keys of the house to.  It brings a tear to my eye just thinking about it.  Here is darling Jade as a child.

Onyx - Teen Years

Like my sister I'm totally going to write about myself. I'm sure mum is rolling her eyes, but seriously, we aren't babies any more.  So here's me -

So I went and got me a part time job, after school working at the grocery store, it doesn't pay great, but seriously who's going to pay a teen much, but there is room for promotion and raises so I might be able to get me a bike, or entertain a chick, etc later.  Some money is better than no money, and its way better than the zero allowance the parents give! 


I also spent the weekend learning to drive, Dad took me out in his police car and I drove all day, I was really good since dad didn't get nearly as stressed as when he took Ame out. Ha!


At night in the police cruiser, dad din't let me use the flashing lights :(



Week Seven - Four birthdays!

Last week started with Amethyst being falsely accused this week its my turn!  I can't believe someone has been saying I've been rummaging through peoples garbage!  Ugh! The nerve of some people!  Of course I will go to city hall and prove my innocence!

Naturally I won.
On a happier note last week ended with three of us aging up, no birthday parties were requested so Jade, Onyx and myself grew older.

Amethyst only has a few days left until graduation, my first child is almost an adult - how time flies - of course instead of studying she spent time catching butterflies!  Onyx learnt to drive this weekend, and Jade told us she was 'preceding over the royal court'.  Shes so sweet.

Naturally a purple butterfly!

Royal court!

All in one night without giving his dad more grey hair!

The end of the week Amethyst grew up to be a young adult, a fine young lady.  We have to wait for graduation and then she has told us she is moving out.  My little baby girl, my first child, shes all grown up and wants to leave *sniffle*.

birthday magic!

Onyx - child years

Our only son has now grown up into a handsome little man.  Here he is as a child -

just like dad Onyx likes to play at the chemistry table making potions.

Onyx went to scouts this week, he won a badge for his hard work, naturally he had to show it off, then we all went to a scouts ceremony at the school where he won another trophy to hang on his wall.  What a clever young man!

Week Six -

Week Six started out with Amethyst (now a teenager) going to city hall to sue people for slander, people have been saying my daughter has been rummaging through garbage!  I can tell you right now I'm furious and I have defiantly brought my daughter up better than that!!

Publicly Disgraced - you can't hide your bad actions anymore. The public has scrutinized your inappropriate behavior all over town. How Shameful! (From being falsely accused)



Luckily my little girl is a genius and just talked her way out of that disgraceful action, I wish I could find out who said such horrible stuff!

Meanwhile in the mail Amethyst got a notice from the school - 


When she received this notice she was so excited, she had to find someone to go with, as she said 'I'm certainly not going alone!' (I had planned on Amethyst going to the dance with Drew Cho, the guy from her birthday party... naturally he grew into an adult... *sighs*  so now the search is on, and shes not helping since all she wants to do is read books and drive cars.) Ame found a young man who said yes to her request to go to the dance, Vivek Earthsong.  We've not met him but Ame seems pretty stuck on him, talking about him all the time.

Meanwhile Onyx is interested in signing up for boy scouts so I'm letting him do that, learn some skills maybe meet some friends.

Sign Up for an After School Activity - An After School Activity is a great way for youngsters to make friends and engage in some edutainment. Your Sim wants to Sign Up at the school or on the computer for an After School Activity.



A family photo of Jade playing with Lucky, Amethyst and Onyx reading books.  My children doing what they love best.  They are so smart, they get that from their dad. Liam is a genius.  I love them so much.


I mastered the bass while relaxing in a park with Jade.  I forgot all about my eldest's dance though!  I hope she had a good time, no doubt she will write all about it!  I saw photos afterwards, she looks stunning, and this man Vivek shes seems take with looks nice as well, maybe she'll bring him home to meet us on day.

Off to the dance in style! 

Crowned prom queen and great picture of Vivek and Amethyst

The day after the dance Amethyst woke up in quite the mood.  Teenage girl stuff I'm sure, or she was drinking something at the dance she shouldn't have!  I hope we can deal with her today, she's really cranky.

Having  A Mood Swing - Your Sim feels like no one understands her. She might get some rebellious wishes for a while. (From Being a Teenager)

Yay for us, but its all part of being parents.  And we have two other kids that are going to hit teenagerhood soon, so I guess we can be prepared.  Liam handled it great by finally showing Amethyst how to drive a car.  I'm not sure if the police cruiser was the best way of doing it, but it seemed to hold Ame's temper at bay, at least for awhile.  

Ame in the drivers seat!!
We all went to Onyx's scouts ceremony and left Jade in the care of a babysitter.  Now I had heard things about sitters that would make your skin crawl, but despite rumors the sitter was really great.  Of course her appearance seemed a bit iffy but she cleaned the kids toys up, mopped the floor several times (the sink was flooding!) and took out the recycling.  Not only did she do all this cleaning she also did make sure Jade was happy and put her to bed.

Putting Jade to bed
Mopping up!

Liam didn't want a big birthday bash but he did age up to elder, (means my birthday is just around the corner as well!)  He's a sweet old man, still trying to dress like he did before.  So cute.

yay! its my birthday!
what the??  *magic*
Liam as an elder - I put him back in his old clothes - they suit him.
So my dear husband grew into an elder and now people are accusing him of being arrested!  These paparazzi have nothing better to do than to make stuff up.  My husband is an International Super Spy - He'd never get arrested!  Once he is done work I'm sure he will got to city hall to sue for slander!

Naturally he won!
