>Matthew One (my “book boy”—thanks, Grace!) has grown up and gone off to the big city to make a name for himself.

Like any proud parent, I’ve been concerned and anxiously waiting to hear news of him. I worried that he might seem immature and his acne might break out.

Last week I hear that he made it through the first round of preliminary auditions. It may be another month before he’s called back for a second audition.

I remain in God’s waiting room.
