We knew it would happen, but we still weren't prepared. We only had 16 years to get ready!
About two months ago, Steve heard a knock on his door at work.
"Mr. Jungbauer, may I talk to you?"
"Well certainly, Dylan. Come on in."
"Mr. Jungbauer, I was wondering if I could take your daughter Sarah to the prom."
(Silence)
"Well, Dylan, Sarah is not allowed to date until she is 16."
"But Mr. Jungbauer, the prom isn't until May 17th."
(Silence)
"Oh . . . "
So Steve quickly switched gears and proceded to inform Dylan of what he expected from any young man that thought he wanted to date his daughter. I'm sure anyone else would have called it a lecture, intimidation or an outright threat and might have never called Sarah again or come within 100 miles --- especially if they also knew about Grampa David, big brother Bubby and Uncle Barry.
When Steve told me about his visit from Dylan that day, I was caught off guard.
"Oh my gosh! We have to let her go, don't we?!?"
We knew it would happen, but we still weren't prepared. We only had 16 years to get ready!
Beautiful girl!!!! Beautiful words!!! Thanks again.
Love you all!!!!
OK, you finally left me speechless!

Wow is all I can say - I've been to MANY formal occasions - none with a more beautiful girl.
