That night Theresa reported the success of her meeting to Jude, who was relieved to see the return of his wife’s normal enthusiasm. Unfortunately, over the next week he saw that enthusiasm begin to fade when none of Theresa’s friends called to report any progress.

One morning, as she fed Michael while Jude ate cereal, Theresa vented to her husband. “I’m really surprised that I haven’t heard from any of them yet.”

“Listen, they’re busy. This takes awhile. And if they haven’t gotten around to it, they’re probably feeling a little guilty. Remember when Nora Galvez tried to get us to go on that retreat, and we were always avoiding her out of guilt because we weren’t ready to commit? Give them time.”

“I guess I’m just not in a very patient mood right now, Jude.” Almost on cue, Michael proceeded to dump a container of peaches onto the floor.
