I'm wishing you three son-in-laws nicknamed Pragmatic, Loyal and Irresistable! (dole them out as you see fit, IHP!)
Thank you for your darling story!

This really was a fabulous thread!! And, I do commend you for not forcing any of your daughters to follow through with Greek Life. You always have to remember that Opinionated, Unpredictable, and Determined are going to make mistakes, but they have the greatest resource and place to fall in you.

Right there with you sister! We'll all be driving around in Hover crafts before my Grands are anything more than hypothetical!
Just in case you get there before me, check out these baby mobiles featuring University mascots. I already know the one I plan to order!!!

This was the best thread!!! I also have determined, opinionated and unpredictable, except that determined and opinionated are the same child!

This thread was awesome!!!
IHPi, Have you written books, I would buy one!!! I love your style of writing, and the fact that while you were writing your family came first hence the stops for laundry!!!
On a personal note, this story was very encouraging to me because I have been dreaming about my little sister attending my alma mater and join my sorority. Recently she told me that she plans to attend a local community college, and then she will decide if she goes to my alma mater. Thanks for encouraging me that it is possible for her to make great friends even if she doesn't go Greek!!!
