Alicia and Keith have a bachelor next-door neighbor whom they have "adopted". He loves their children and they adore him. Mitch (or "Stitch" as Kinsley, age 3, called him at first) was at their house for dinner last week. Payton (age 6) asked him "Mitch, why don't you go to church?" Mitch laughed.

Payton's final question was "If you don't go to church, why don't you come to our church." We're anxious for that day......
