First week with A6. Hasn't sacked me yet. I know you said it would be all right, but I did worry a little.

I'd like to take you up on the offer you made in my exit interview. To discuss balancing the personal with the professional. Now that we're no longer constrained by the formalities of training.

Ned and my father have agreed we should set 4 August as the date. It's a Saturday. And the day I turn 20. If I'm going to change my anything, it would have to be soon. Before the announcements are engraved.

I don't have any very good reason not to go through with it. He's a solid match for me. Really. And he seems to accept what I'll have to do for my work. At least, I think he does. We both want to serve Our Lord as fully as we can: we're both ambitious in that regard. We've talked about how we hope to be placed in five years and ten and beyond.

Only, I wonder if he'll change his mind about what I ought to do. Once we've bound ourselves. Because I really can't think of starting a family just now, and I don't know whether he's really honest with me about being willing to wait. In order to accomplish other things first, you see.

Did you see things clearly from the start? And did you agree everything in advance? I suppose I simply have to have it out with him. Maybe draw up a formal parchment of commitments. Do you know anyone who's done that? Or does that seem- And, of course, I don't know what he would expect me to agree to if we were to do that.
