An interesting exchange.
Tuesday, walking back to the car after lunch with Dad...Me: So what was it about Mum that made you like her at the beginning?
Dad: I think it was her quietness... I think I always went for the quiet, polite girls.
Me: (laughs) You mean the kind of girl that's the exact opposite of me?
Dad: (laughs harder) ...actually, yeah.
Me: (in bemusement) How ironic that God gave you a daughter that turned out like me!
I wonder if Dad ever thought when he was going out with Mum that one day they'd have a loud, chatty daughter asking nosy questions about their courtship.
I wonder what kind of people my kids will grow up to be. I wonder if they'll ask me what I like about their dad. I wonder what I'll say (haha I wonder who he'll be! - but I digress). But I hope we'll be able to talk and laugh the way me and Dad do.
