On Sunday I got to meet Dan's Mom, Gayla. In the kind of language that my Mom would use, Mrs P is a whoot! She took half of First CRC out for lunch after church and got to know lots about Dan's friends. Yolisa was there, she works for CLAC. Turns out Mrs P worked for CLAC. She remembers her time there fondly because as she excitedly put it, "Dan was conceived at CLAC." By which she actually meant that she was working there at the time. Ha, Ha Dan.
Later in the day I went for a walk with Sarah Vedder. Sarah Vedder is from the valley, just like the Postmas. I ended up at Sarah's making pizza for supper. Now, Sarah's cousin Katrina is also in that dorm and another valley dweller, Matt Young was there visiting a female friend.
We all happened to be in the kitchen when Sarah asked, "How was the rest of your day after church?"
"It was great. Dan's Mom took a bunch of us out for lunch."
"Postma? As in Gayla Postma"
"Yup"
Kristina chimed in at this point, "You mean the Gayla Postma that we know?"
Sarah replied, "Yup."
To which Matt interjected, "You mean Gary's wife?"
"Yup."
"What was she doing her and what were you doing going out for lunch with her?"
Everything got explained and the Dutch community-bingo-fun-time was over. I just thought it was neat that Mrs P. was so famous in one kitchen.
Oh, and Gayla said I was a good hugger. 6 pts.
