Actually, BP has developed a remarkable talent to direct clergy with eye movements, arched eyebrows, etc. I call her the Bishop-whisperer.

I'm so glad that this is a story where love came through for all, that you found a church home, and that the church has found what a blessing it is to have you both part of its life.<br /><br />Kathykladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09526715552795733402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8238382886103256219.post-58225879891449714332013-07-16T17:04:12.962-07:002013-07-16T17:04:12.962-07:00Cute guy alert!!!!

This continues to be an amazing journey. Thank you ALL for your various contributions, for you have been with me, too. A friend at the "after party" asked if I felt any different, and I made a glib response. The next day--yesterday--I realized that it *does* feel different. In a completely surprising way, it "feels different" even away from the Cathedral. And "different", while hard to define, is good: partly confidence, partly serenity, somehow. <br /><br />I'm at home, again, in my own skin. <br /><br />BP (using IT's account)IThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09605163506396013904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8238382886103256219.post-9419161724117079432013-07-16T09:05:22.746-07:002013-07-16T09:05:22.746-07:00CONGRATULATIONS BP!
