Prelude to a French Kiss



"Savannah, how do you feel about us going to France? All of us?"
That was the stunning announcement dad made as he burst into my bedroom while I was painting. Dad is still very much capable of these; even in his advanced age he is still capable of shocking us all.
"Dad! Did you tell mom? What about work?"
"Work knows. And as for your mother, well -- it's a surprise."
"What do you mean, a surprise?"
Dad got that mischievous little glint in his eyes. I just knew he was up to something.
