Dearëst Zoë,

Well, we're headed off to Church tomorrow bright and early.  We're going to meet Granny & Poppy at the Church I was mostly raised in.  I think the experience will be wholly positive for you and I'm glad there will be little ones to play with and wholesome activities and snacks to enjoy.  Personally, I'm a little nervous.  You're a little young to know the story about the prodigal son, but I have those kinds of nerves; the nerves that come from returning home knowing you messed up and you don't really deserve a big welcome from anyone.  Still, going home is better than staying in the pig pen for the rest of your life.  One day maybe you'll understand all this.  Perhaps if everything goes well though, you never will.  The round about path I've taken is not one I would want for you.

All my love,

Mama
