Dear Laney,
We got to Alabama on Wednesday, and one of our first orders of business was to go to Granny Jack's church so you could meet the people she works with in the kitchen.
Frazer United Methodist Church is enormous, and features its own coffee shop, gift store, indoor submarine-themed playground and petting zoo. I am only making up one of those things.
We happened to stop by the indoor, submarine-themed playground at the same time as one of the preschool classes was having recess. You jumped right in and held hands with the other girls so you could walk, dance and slide together.
When recess time was over, the teacher announced that all of "Miss Janice's friends" should line up to go back to class. You got right in line with the other kids, ready to shuffle on down the hallway without so much as a wave goodbye to your mama. Watch out: that's how those Methodists get you... they dangle a submarine slide in front of you, and the next thing you know, you're signed up for a casserole committee. I'm almost positive that's what happened to Granny Jack.
Love,
Mom
