An Interesting Turn of Events

Well...yesterday was to be Elizabeth and Jacob's first day to meet with their own "attorney". Tracy was to take them and then meet with the attorney afterward. The meeting was to be at 5:00 in Bakersfield. The kids waited and waited and waited for their mom to pick them up. Steve called the attorney to let her know that it was nearly 5:00 and still, no Tracy. It would take at least an hour for them to get to Bakersfield, so the attorney thanked Steve for the call and said she would leave...it was to be her last appointment of the day. Meanwhile, Steve changed his plans for the evening; made a call to Tracy to let her know she'd missed the appointment; then took the kids with him to a friend's house to watch the Detroit Redwings get beat by the Pittsburg Penguins in a "triple overtime"!

I'm not sure how or why the appointment wasn't kept. I'd think that something as important as this would have been written on every available calendar.
