JUST A MOMENT!
Have you ever stopped to consider the problem of grandchildren?
Do you know, for example, that ONLY 58% of the fathers in America
are GRANDFATHERS?
Did it ever occur to you that only 39% of the grandfathers in

done and you are sitting in your slippers before the fire, when
you would give any thing in the world for a soft little voice to
call you GRANDPA?
Be fair to your daughter
Give her a College educated husband!
