I was puzzled...

    On the weekend, my JW wife and I were invited to her sister's home for dinner, to celebrate my wife's daughter's reinstatement. Shortly before the meal, my SIL informed me that her family always says a prayer before the meal. Here's the thing...she asked me if I would be offended! (I am a UBM). I was actually quite amazed that she would even think to ask me that. Of course, I told her, that this is her home, and it was certainly fine with me.

    This just kind of puzzled me...Shadow1

    I think that when I went there for dinner, I was just imagining the worst. It actually went quite well. To the point where I somewhat enjoyed my evening!
