Upon he parents announcing their divorce to her, Bea received a green notebook and a green pen from them (her favourite colour). My parents divorced when I was four, I’ve been in Bea’s shoes before. After the divorce, young Bea has to bounce from one parent’s home to the next, alternating each day. Bea parents are divorce because they love each other differently. What is a list of things that will not change in our ever-changing lives? In “The List of Things that will not Change”, we follow Beatrice or Bea as she is to her friends and family in this short story of growth, family, mental health and love. Even though she’s never met Jesse’s daughter, Sonia, Bea is sure that they’ll be “just like sisters anywhere.”Īs the wedding day approaches, Bea will learn that making a new family brings questions, surprises, and joy. Bea loves Jesse, and when he and Dad get married, she’ll finally (finally!) have what she’s always wanted–a sister. When Dad tells Bea that he and his boyfriend, Jesse, are getting married, Bea is thrilled. The first and most important: Mom and Dad will always love Bea, and each other. But she can always look back at the list she keeps in her green notebook to remember the things that will stay the same. After her parents’ divorce, Bea’s life became different in many ways.
