Today we really struggled at church with Ivan and Eva. Fortunately we got up very early, were well prepared and I had watched the mass. So I didn't have to get angry for not being able to hear the homily. Today's Gospel was the story of Zacchaeus. A bishop from Africa gave the Homily. He had a booming voice and had an accent which sounded like a melodic verse. He laid out some profound observations about the story. Later we spoke as a family about the story and we sang the song all day.

Christie and I set aside our differences from last night and had a good day.
