My daughter said today that she was getting married, and not just for fun, she had found a fiancé named Mark. I asked her about her future son-in-law, whether he had a place to live and a car. Alina said that he did not have his own apartment, but that was not a problem, we could all fit into ours, and there was no car either, but that was okay, I had one when it was necessary, and I would drive the young people around.
What do you need a groom like that, no stake, no yard, and still drive them? I asked my daughter if she should think a little more before she gets married. Alina won’t do it, says Mark is a very good, perfect husband. What’s so special about Mark?
Turns out he takes my daughter on swings. This good news decided to tell his wife – will be a good son-in-law, though to live with us to be, about the groom’s daughter knows nothing, but a swing – is a strong argument.
My wife was not surprised by the fact of forthcoming wedding, she was more perplexed by the groom’s name, it turned out that last week her daughter had planned a wedding with Max. The reason for the break of the engagement was banal – Max did not yield his turn on swings to Alina, but Mark was a gentleman, he not only let her go ahead, but he also drove her.
We discussed the topic of marriage with the child very seriously, because she is a grown-up, soon finishes kindergarten, it’s time to plan a wedding. The future mother-in-law also supported the change of the groom, why do we need a greedy person in the family, let Mark be better. Alina such solidarity on the part of parents very pleased, but further planning a wedding we decided to postpone until the morning, because the time is late, it’s time to sleep. Before kindergarten it is necessary to sleep, otherwise what for Mark sleepy and angry bride.
The argument was very strong, and the child quickly climbed into bed and fell asleep, and my wife and I went to drink tea and rejoice that our little girl and have little worries so far. In the morning at the kindergarten we decided to get acquainted with Mark, because he is about to move in with us, and we know nothing about him, except that he takes Alina for a ride on the swings.
