Last night we went to the home of a young couple for dinner with whom we meet with our church on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evening. What a great couple. We talked about the consequential and the inconsequential while they cooked a gourmet meal, paid a ton of attention to the kids, and did everything possible to make us all feel comfortable and welcome. They have lots of things going for them, but far and away, the thing that makes them most attractive is their kindness and desire to make people feel at home. WOW. They really know how to do that. It is so nice to have an evening like that when, even if you might say something wrong, it will not matter–you know these friends will put the best light on it and think well of you anyway. We hope to have them over for a visit to our new house soon.
