Had a nice little visit with Mom and Dad in the airport last night. They were on their way back from NC, and Brian's graduation (congrats again Brian!), and they had a layover, so we packed up the kids and went down to see them. John has not gotten over his obsession with elevators though, and so was bent on going up and down the elevators, and not so much on visiting. It's like a switch goes on and he is possessed. Hanna fell asleep in the van on the way home, as it was her bedtime. John was still awake. He just didn't seem to need as much sleep.

Rhonda might bring the kids down here to my place of employment later this morning, just for a quick visit, so my coworkers can meet the little munchkins.

Well, the process has begun. I've started in on writing the novel I've been thinking about for awhile. I've put the first words to paper. The prologue and first two or three chapters are in my head, so it's almost a matter of dictation, and getting them written down. I know the ending, and a bunch of scenes in between. In the end, it will probably clock in somewhere between 80,000 and 100,000 words. Yesterday I wrote the first 340. So, a ways to go. There will have to some pauses for more research though. Since it is inspired by Leviticus, I'll have to read through that again. For some of the book I want to read letters and other accounts of people in Europe as they experienced the Nazi invasion, to get a feel for what they were going through, as some of that will end up in the book.
