The Happy Family

After the day Peter has met Patrick they went together to the bus stop. Mrs. Appleblossom and her daughter, Pepper went to visit Peter's brother, Christopher Appleblossom in another town, and they promised to come back early in the evening.When they arrived Peter was excited.
Mr. Appleblossom: Penelope, Pepper, I am so happy that you are at home again! The house was so empty without you!
Mrs. Appleblossom: You are so kind, Honey!
Pepper: Uncle Christopher sends his greetings, Daddy... Who is that squirrel boy?
Mr. Appleblossom: He is my new friend, Darling. His name is Patrick Walnut. Go and meet him.

Pepper approached Patrick, and Peter started to tell everything about this boy. First Mrs. Appleblossom couldn't say a word. Tears came into her eyes. Then she became serious.
Mrs. Appleblossom: I don't let him go back into the woods. Never.
Mr. Appleblossom: You have a heart of gold. That is why I fell in love with you.
Mrs. Appleblossom: He must stay with us. We will work harder and try our best. We must adopt his baby sister, too! I always would like to have a new baby...
Mr. Appleblossom: I am so happy now. That is what I want since I met him, too!

Mr. Appleblossom: Patrick, Pepper, come here! Patrick, meet my wife, Penelope.
Patrick: Good evening, Mrs. Appleblossom!
Mrs. Appleblossom: Oh, my son! You are a good little boy, let me give you a kiss... I don't want you to go back to the woods. You and your baby sister will live with us, if you would like it, too.
Patrick: Oh, Mrs. Appleblossom, is it true?
Mrs. Appleblossom: Yes, it is! And please, call me Penelope... I would like to be your new Mommy.
Patrick: I am so happy!
Pepper: Hurray, I will have a younger brother and a younger sister!
Mr. Appleblossom: I hope you will be good siblings.

Everybody was happy. They laughed and chatted until sunset. Then Peter took his new big family home.
