"Can I help with anything?"

So... I can't quite follow up an amazing news article about Jerry, but I have a fun story. Tonight the Fort Worth house went to eat at the house of the Director of Youth, Young Adult, and Campus Ministry for the Diocese of Ft Worth. He and his wife also invited 3 other young adults who are on the young adult council for the diocese, who Angela and I had met before. And we had met Chris, who works as webmaster for the diocese, a few besides that. Kevin and his wife, Nikki, hosted a lovely meal and we had some great conversations. We heard a lot about the early life of Kevin and Nikki, which was really cute. They just celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary. Anyway, back to the actual story.

We were all done with our meal and dessert and coffee, and Chris had left (rather, went outside with Kevin and they chatted by his car for awhile, which up north we call a good 'ol Midwestern good bye). Angela asked if she could help with anything, and Nikki said "no, I will take care of it." And she was pretty persistent about that. I was still sitting down and Angela comes over and tries to take a glass and goes "just a little bit!" but I told her "no, sit down!" She restrained herself for awhile, but then, despite what the hostess said, started cleaning up! She's pretty funny that way. I guess it runs in her blood. So, if y'all want to have us over for dinner, don't worry about cleaning because Angela will take care of it for you! =) "Can I help with anything?" is Angela's favorite line. Love you, girl!
