So if you know of or have an imaginary friend that desperately needs a home, then come on down to Foster’s Home For Imaginary Friends, where good ideas are not forgotten.”

“Out of my way, babies! The prettiest, smartest and bestest girl gets the front seat!”

Your family was a big one. All your life you were surrounded by people, and mostly babies at that. Being the only one your age, you were almost forced to hang out with the children for fun, and it did take a toll on you. Another thing that came with being the oldest is that your parents never really had the time for you. They tended to only the baby(ies) and nothing else.

“Oh, Daph. What’s wrong with you? Don’t you ever eat?”

“But… invader’s blood marches through my veins, like giant RADIOACTIVE RUBBER PANTS! The pants command me. Do not ignore my veins!”

Your parents were from different worlds. Literally. You were half alien and you were kind of embarrassed about it. Well, the human part. You wanted to do everything you could to get back into space and see where you came from. Oh did I mention you despised humans?

Your parent’s obsession with space and all things science must’ve rubbed off on you, because now you want to be an astronaut! Luckily, since your parent already built a rocket ship, you already have one to traverse the never-ending beauty of space.

Traits: Family-Oriented, Creative, Ambitious

Complete the Curator Aspiration.

Unlike your parents who were always so caught up with work, you would rather have fun and enjoy the cooler things in life. So once you were old enough, you up and left, moving into the city for the most fun!

(You need THIS mod to be able to have a baby with a ghost!)

“Wow! Isn’t this great? We just caught three ghosts tonight!”

“No, actually, you’ve just caught one ghost, three times, all of them me!”

Your parent was a wild spirit, and that’s not a joke! You’re part ghost. How? Because one of your parents decided to get a little too drunk and conceive you with a dead person. It’s hard to really be normal as many people are scared of ghosts!

Traits: Gloomy, Unflirty, Clumsy

Goals:

Complete the Super Parent Aspiration.

Complete the Career you choose.

Master two skills of your choice (try to do something you haven’t mastered before!).

Adopt one child.

Never marry, but attempt to date.

“That’s not Santa, you stooge. That’s the Grim Reaper.”

You were adopted, but not just by anybody. Your parent was a ghost. Not a surprise, and they definitely didn’t act like the spooky undead. Your ghost parent gave you a bit of interest in the supernatural, like the Grim Reaper, Vampires, and Ghosts. This led to documenting your findings and a bit of an obsession, which included stealing from Vlad’s place…

Decades Challenge; 1900′s

Dearest Cousin,

Archie and Mabel are married! The wedding was so beautiful in a quaint park with over 100 people in attendance! Posie brought Charles and he was the ring boy, and Ernest gave Mabel away as she hasn’t got a father.  

More good news... Mabel is pregnant! I am so excited to meet my new  grandson or grandaughter!

Ernest and I are still very much in love in our old age. I fall in love more and more each day. He is so good with Charles it reminds me of when we had Posie and he panicked but was the best father we could have ever hoped for. 

Life is looking up, again! 

Yours Sincerely,

Cora Abbott.

Decades Challenge; 1900′s

Dearest Cousin,

Ernest and I welcomed our first grandchild, Charles Abbott-Wallace, named after his late uncle Charlie.

I felt sad holding a baby, it reminded me that mine are all grownup and that one isn’t here anymore.

However, I am looking forward to having little Charles stay round our house and to watch him grow up. 

Hope all is well.

Yours Sincerely

Cora Abbott

Decades Challenge; 1900s

Dearest Cousin,

Life is so bittersweet at the moment. I am still mourning the loss of Charlie, but Archie and Mabel told me yesterday that they are engaged. I noticed the ring on Mabel’s finger the day we found Charlie, but I didn’t say anything and I respected their decision to hold back the news until we were all feeling a bit stronger.

I suppose it is something to look forward too, and planning the wedding will give me something else to think about. Ernest and I will be using our savings to pay for the majority of it, and Mary will be putting money towards it too.

Adelaide celebrated her birthday yesterday. I feel bad because we didn’t really celebrate. I baked her a cake but I couldn’t bare to celebrate without Charlie. Perhaps we’ll do something a bit later on when we’re not still in shock.

Yours Sincerely,

Cora Abbott

Rest In Peace, Charlie James Abbott.

A loving brother and son. 

You will be forever missed.

[simseverything]

Decades Challenge; 1900

Dearest Cousin,

I apologise for not writing in while. I do not know where to begin. I mentioned in a previous letter that Charlie was not feeling good. After a few weeks, he started to get worse. Dr. Fenrich stopped by a few times and told us it was most likely nothing to worry about and that he would improve in due course.

He spent the last days of his life bed bound.I stayed with him every second, caring for him like I did when he was a young boy. 

We have made a plot in the back garden of the estate where he will be laid to rest. I can’t quite wrap my head around the fact that I will never see him again or hear his voice again.

He died 2 days short of his birthday, in which he would be growing into a man.

“Today my forest is dark. The trees are sad and all the butterflies have broken wings”

Decades Challenge; 1900′s

Dearest Cousin,

We celebrated Archie’s birthday today. We had a small get together with Mabel’s family, a few close family friends and a few of Charlie and Adelaide’s friends from school.

Two of my babies are now adults, and I know it won’t be long until Archie and Mabel settle down and start a family. However, I won’t have to go through the heartbreak of Archie moving out as he will inherit the estate when the time comes.

Happy Brithday, Archie!

Love always,

Cora Abbott

Decades Challenge; 1900′s

Dearest Cousin,

I have brilliant news! Posie is pregnant! Everything is happening just the way I imagined it. I’ve got four healthy children, a wonderful husband, a beautiful home and I’m soon to be a grandmother!

Posie says she’s very happy in their new home and is thrilled to be having her first baby. She hasn’t said whether she would prefer a boy or girl, but if it happens the way it did for me, I predict it will be a girl.

Charlie is feeling under the weather and has been for a few days. Ernest and I have allowed him to take a day or two off school. We hope it’s nothing serious.

It’s Archie’s birthday tomorrow. He will be an adult. He and Mabel have already exchanged promise rings and are talking about marriage. 

Life is good.

Yours Sincerely,

Cora Abbott

[simseverything]

Decades Challenge; 1900s

Dearest Cousin,

What a way to enter the new decade! Posie and Alfred got married! 

Although, like I mentioned before, the wedding was not at all what we expected, it was very quaint and meaningful. It took me back to my wedding. Ernest and I were also very quick to fall in love and get married; but look where we are now! Four children and a beautiful home - and I still fall in love with him more and more each day.

Mary, Alfred’s mother, handed her son his savings and told him to do what he thought best with the money. The next day, he knocked on the door with an army of empty trunks and ordered Posie to pack her stuff as he’d bought them a small house!

Of course, Ernest wouldn’t allow Mary to pay for all of it, so he put a fair amount of money towards the house and gave a portion to Posie and Alfred as a wedding gift.  

One can only hope now that the next set of good news we receive is that I’m going to be a grandmother!

Hope everything is okay with you.

Yours Sincerely,

Cora Abbott

Decades Challenge; 1900s

New decade, new interior! The Abbotswood Estate has recieved a major makeover. The lounge is unrecognisable from the dull, brown tones it once housed.

Each bedroom is individually decorated and the Abbott's have brand new beds! Wallpaper and cosy carpet in almost every room has given the estate a more homely feeling.

A brand new bathroom has been built into the house - no more late night trips into the garden to use the toilet!

Welcome to the 1900′s, let’s hope it’s a good decade!

[simseverything]

Decades Challenge; 1890′s

Hello wallpaper,electric lighting and indoor plumbing! As we enter 1900, we bid farewell to the dull interior of the Abbotswood Estate and the cold outside toilet. 

With the money made through gardening, painting and woodworking, the Abbotts have saved up enough money to refurbish the house and represent the turn of the century.

The only room that won’t be getting a new look just yet is the master bedroom. Ernest and Cora feel comfortable in their bedroom and aren’t too keen to wash away the memories of the 1890′s just yet. They will leave the room to Archie once he becomes the heir and he may decorate to his hearts content.

Goodbye, 1890′s! It’s been fun.

[simseverything]

Decades Challenge; 1890′s

Dearest Cousin,

I hope you are well. We recently celebrated Posie’s birthday and she is officially a young woman! She is still with Alfred and things are looking promising between them. They are getting married!

I must confess I am slightly upset with her. Since she was a babe she would talk about her huge wedding, her white dress, her wedding cake and the huge party afterwards. However, she broke the news to me yesterday that it will be a somewhat private affair. Close friends and family in a small chapel. Over and done within an hour. Perhaps this is a suggestion by Alfred, but I have spoken to his mother and she is just as confused as we are.

As long as she is happy, I suppose.

It is a moving experience seeing somebody grow into an adult with their own mind and heart, knowing you raised them. I think Ernest and I did a good job.

Happy Birthday, Posie Ruby Abbott. 

I hope the new year is good to you and the start of this new decade brings you joy and health.

Yours Sincerely,

Cora Abbott

Decades Challenge; 1890′s

Dear Diary,

I am so overwhelmed. Mother let Alfred stay the night a few weeks ago and we were extremely careless and irresponsible. I woke up the next morning and could instantly tell something was wrong. Now I know for sure. I’m pregnant.

I’m not even married! Am I to give birth to a bastard? I will surely be disowned by the entire family. I’m somewhat convinced that Mother would be understanding - more understanding than father for certain, but can I take that risk?

It took every last bit of courage in my bones to tell Alfred. I was so concerned that he may push me down and tell me never to contact him again. Then not only would I be a slut, I would be a spinster too. 

However, I was pleasantly surprised. He was mortified when I first told him. Panicking about what his mother would say. About what my mother would say. 

He has come up with an ingenious plan. But we must act fast, before I start to show. We will get married before anybody finds out I am bearing his baby. It will be small, informal and only a few family members and friends will be there.

I have dreamt of my wedding since I was a little girl. This isn’t how I expected it to be, and I think Mother will be disappointed. However, this is what needs to happen to ensure I am not the whore of Willow Creek.

I will write soon.

Posie.

[simseverything]

Decades Challenge; 1890′s

Dearest Cousin,

I am delighted to tell you that three of my children have found young love. Archie has met a wonderful girl named Mabel Fowler. We invited her over for supper and we couldn’t ask for a better companion for him. Mabel promised herself to him and they are going steady!

The young man aforementioned in my previous letter, Alfred Wallace, is extremely suitable for my daughter. Posie seems very happy with him. She is soon to be a young adult, and I can only imagine they are thinking about marriage!

Adelaide is now a teen and is head over heels for James Fowler (Mabel’s brother!). They met when Adelaide accompanied Archie to the Fowler residence. I know their mother, Mary Fowler, well. Adelaide is very foolish and the most immature out of all the children. She tends to rush into things but she seems very happy and James seems to be a gentleman. 

Ernest is concerned about Charlie. He doesn’t seem to be taking an interest in girls and instead spends the majority of his time with his nose in a book! I’ve told him not to worry and that I presume he is just shy. He has grown into a handsome boy. 

Yours Sincerely,

Cora Abbott

[simseverything]

Decades Challenge; 1890′s

Dearest Cousin,

It was Archie’s birthday yesterday. We hosted a small get together with close friends and family. Isn’t he the spitting image of his father?

As he is the eldest boy, he is the heir to the Abbott fortune. He will acquire the estate and the house will be transferred into his name as soon as he comes of age.  He will be responsible for carrying on the Abbott family name, as Ernest is an only child.

The twins are also growing up very quickly, they will be teenagers in a couple of days. All four children are doing well at school. Posie struggled somewhat entering high school but is now back on her feet and working towards an A grade.

We are also introducing her to the idea of finding a potential suitor. She brought a young man home from school to meet us. His name is Alfred and he seems promising.

Can’t wait to hear from you!

Yours Truly,

Cora Abbott

Your cousin.
