Ruth nodded, without making any further comment. Kitty will probably realise how the dynamic was there within the first five minutes she saw them together, but that wasn’t going to happen just yet. For one thing, because Ruth wanted to meet the woman for herself. She had heard a lot about her and her intention was to make up her own mind, as always.

Ruth smiled and wondered. *Would* Uriel be happy to see her? She tended not to be seen as good news by her siblings. She wondered why. Ruth raised her brows at that comment. Yes, being around a crying child wasn’t exactly the ideal life style she was looking forward to, though she wasn’t exactly here because sh was seeking a more comfortable life. “I appreciate you warning me. And I imagine it runs in the family. ” She was making an effort, but her lungs were a notorious among the Meijer.

Ruth nodded and asked “Do you have sufficient help?” Or has my brother neglected to hire someone for his healing wife? “I like the porch, I am enjoining the summer here, but only if it doesn’t bother you too much. And I can carry anything you’d like me to, if that helps.” And if that is not offending the hostess, that is, but Ruth was trying to be her usual practical self without intruding.
