Yesterday evening, Ellie and I headed out to meet my dad for a late dinner of pho. Keith's business trip to Westboro had been over-busy, so he was out of town an extra night.

Ezra just doesn't like the car much, and if he were in and I were out and he could see me he'd be furious.

I still am not sure why I didn't panic, actually.

Oh my goodness, I'm glad everything worked out well. I'll come over soon and tell you the story of my misadventure in my ordination process (i.e. the reason I had a horrible week last week). Love you (and Ellie too)!
