My parents are the total American dream story. They handed things to me (no H2, a used BMW & Beetle, but still, my three older sisters had to buy a Pinto on their own & share) and thought they could balance it out by being very strict (church, early curfews, etiquette drills). Look how I turned out!
So, then, do you know what beautiful words my father had for Peter on our wedding day?
"She's your problem now."
