I'm sitting in the living room half reading a book. My mind isn't really on it. I heard my parents come home but they didn't say anything to Josh, so I just stayed here, letting him work. I hear someone come down the stairs. I assume its Finn or Julie. Then I hear-
"Uncle Josh! Cookie!"
At that I get up and go out into the hallway, Marco has climbed up onto Josh's lap. Josh closes the laptop and pushes it out of reach, then hands him a cookie. They look really sweet together.
"Oh!" Josh says. "I probably should have asked if it was okay first." He looks at Finn and Julie apologetically.
"It's okay." Julie says. "One cookie isn't going to hurt him." Then she says-
"So Finn said you guy want to go out? Let me just check with Lottie and see if she'll watch him."
A few minutes later, Julie come back from the kitchen.
"She'll watch him. We just need to be back here by 7 so that I can get him ready and we can all head over to the church together."
Finn and Julie are in jeans and sweaters, but I'm still in my dress from earlier and Josh is still wearing his suit, although the jacket is hanging over the back of the chair and he's loosened his tie. Either they need to dress up or we need to dress down. Since we aren't going straight over to the church- I'd like to put on jeans and a sweater.
"That sounds good. Josh & I will run upstairs and put on something more comfortable since we'll have time to change back into this before the Service starts."
Josh stands up still holding Marco, and Finn reaches for him.
"Come on little man, let's go see what Grandma's doing in the kitchen."
