I Want to Marry Someone Like...
"Paige. I want to marry a girl like Paige," Brandon said.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because. Because she's really quiet. She talks to me, but she doesn't talk too much. I don't want to marry a girl who talks too much. And Paige loves the Lord. She's a good worker. She likes animals. And Paige likes me."
"What about you, Corrine?" I asked.
"I don't know," she replied. "Probably a boy who doesn't talk too much. I think I would like a quiet one like Daddy. Not like Ding-Dong." (translation: "Ding-Dong" is David Anastasia. Brandon called him that after the first time he went to David & Nancy's house. He was young, very young. David's house had a doorbell--we didn't--and thus the name.)
