He's Still Around

The other night, Pedro came by for a visit and HE CALLED AHEAD TO LET US KNOW HE WAS COMING! No minor miracle there. I'll never forget my parents telling me: You can't just show up unannounced. We might be ___ ____ on the living room rug. You need to call ahead.

For some reason, that vivid and uncomfortable image served as a powerful reminder of their rule. Now we have the same rule, minus the mental images.

We were so happy to see him. It had been a whole month! We've missed you, Pedro!
