Today as Mass began, a member of the choir came up to the microphone and ran through the usual speel about “Welcome to our Parish, especially if you’ve travelled a long way, turn off your cell phones and other loud electronic devices, and please turn to the following number in the hymnal for the opening hymn”. Rascal has heard this every week since he’s been coming to Mass, but today he noticed that he could hear the announcer’s voice coming from the loudspeakers above us. To make it more amusing, the voice belonged to my father-in-law – -his grandfather– whose voice he’s heard all five years of his life. However, listening to the voice coming out of the loudspeakers, Rascal looked up at me with wide eyes and asked:
I am an author and domestic engineer enjoying unbounded domesticity with the husband of my dreams, three fine brave rascally knight errants, seven lovely princesses-in-training, twelve chickens, an indoor cat, and an outdoor cat. And bees, coming soon.
