Date Night

Last night we had the biggest treat! Covenant College music department put on West Side Story. My brother, David, and his wife, Mary, offered to send us to the musical and babysit our kids. Not only that, they came to our house. They treated the kids to pizza and treated us to dinner. Wow! We were so astonished by their generousity.


Mary showed up at our house at 5:00 with her 4 kids and we were off. We went out to eat and took our time because we weren't paying a babysitter. David joined Mary at our house after work and brought the pizzas. When it was time for bed, Mary took her kids home and David put our 5 to bed. Then he "studied" (he is working on getting his masters from Duke and has a lot of homework) and watched basketball.


We had a great time. Greg and Debbie Duble joined us at the play. They love West Side Story, as do I, and Jon was introduced to it for the first time. The Covenant College kids did a marvelous job and we were so impressed by their production.


What a blessing. We had a great time and couldn't be more thankful for David and Mary's gift to us.
