Edited beginning of my story - your thoughts?

I'm still liking it. Get rid of the 'vigorously' though; it's an unnecessary adverb. (Most adverbs are unnecessary.) I don't WANT it the story to go anywhere, but I do want to know where YOU want to take it. I genuinely would like to see more. I get the sense there's something about these characters to like. Mum doesn't seem bad; just a bit clueless. And Jennabell...well, she's the fulcrum the story rests on. Keep writing.
