So, I went up to Ft. Wayne to see my girls and also to see my middle daughter get baptized. Okay, so imagine being divorced from a Mennonite woman, am gay, and going to a church for a baptism...with all her aunts and uncles, her parents and family. PLUS, my ex-wife's boyfriend. YIKES!
Okay, so it wasn't that bad. Everyone was sooo nice, shook my hand, the aunts gave me hugs and said they missed me. I mean, they are the epitome of what Christians should be. They love the sinner, but hate the sin. Okay..I know...being gay isn't a sin, I'm just writing from their point of view to give you the scoop. I was really impressed. Christy(my ex-wife) was nice, but markedly anxious because her boyfriend was there. She would look at me once in a while and grin her cute goofy grin. Yeah, I like her a lot, but we both know I do not love her. That's okay though. I didn't get to meet her boyfriend. That's okay. I will someday if things go right between them. I really want Christy to be happy.
So before the church service, I spent two days with the girls and had SO much fun. We really are close and I am glad. I'm sure when they find out why I left there will be some friction, but we'll get through it. There is too much love there to let anything separate us. I'm confident about that.
Well, that's about it...good times...
