Left work a smidge early because we have a lot on our plates for tonight. I caught up with my dad on the first half of the commute. The buzz is the new Tarpey baby today and Cassidy's graduation tomorrow! I listened to Al Kresta the rest of the drive home. Sunny and 76°F.
Claire is working at Subway this afternoon. Abby has a concert performance tonight. Michelle and I have a dinner with the RCIA team. Sarah Rolanti generously volunteered to watch the boys for a couple of hours. Then it's pick up Abby, the boys, and Claire.
Phew! Back from the busy evening! Had a great dinner with friends from the RCIA team. Left just before dessert to pick up the boys. Abby got a lift home from a friend.

that you have given me,
so that they may be one just as we are one.’ ” — John 17
