Good morning, Finland.

So Christmas is over. I hope everyone got nice presents -

or at least plenty of warm thoughts.

Thanks for the oatmeal. - You're welcome.

Go get dressed, okay?

Pete, please give Dad some paper.

Thanks.

Yesterday I didn't know...

Pete.

You're my boy, right?

I'll fulfill your wishes, my love

Bye.

Have a nice day!

190th pee.

Remember that whatever you see -

or hear, -

Mom and I love you.

And when Mom and I talk, we talk about deep things.

We talk...

You two are the most important...

You know that you have a great mother...

Whatever you see or hear...

Daddy loves you... Whatever you see or hear...

Mom! - wake

Wake up, sleepyhead.

Come have oatmeal.

Brother Pete, brother Pete Are you sleeping?

And we meet again!

Alright. Let's put socks on you.

Here we go.

And the other.

Hop on a horse and the horse will go and say, "Neeeiiigh!"

Pete, you want to go to our place on kicksleds? - Sure.

Is Mom coming too? - Not today.

Mom is already at work.

Your uncles are still at our house.

They're leaving soon.

Listen, children, -

to what happened when Grandma and I -

crossed the river early in the morning.

When we got up on the riverbank, -

the wind over the river was really hard.

Damn, the wind whistled so loud.

Grandma sat on the sled and I rolled down the riverbank.

The wind grabbed us -

and blew us across the frozen river.

Grandma shouted, "Not so fast, good Lord!'

But I didn't do anything.

It was the wind that took us across the river at full speed.

The wind stopped when we got to town hall.

That's when Grandma stopped screaming.

Oh dear.

So you want to go to our place? - Right away?

Sure, let's go.

Grandma, I'm hot. - Let's go outside then.

The sparks just fly when us boys ride -

and make northern lights.

Snails!

I wonder what that is, Pete.

It's Vetson Petso.

Let's not tell anyone about this.

This is our secret.

Yeah. Can Suvi and I go home soon?

Sure. Now let's get some sleep.

Guess what? At night Grandpa and me..

I mean, nothing...

Shake the snow off your skis. - Okay.

Here's the machinist. - Show me.

You know, they have every right to be in the world -

just as we do.

We're just stronger and our tools are more terrible.

You mean the tools you had in the war?

Yes.

Hi, Ville.

Don't worry. I won't throw the cigarette butt in your garden.

We came to take you and your sister home.

Go say bye to your grandma.

Pete.

Did you have fun here?

I'm sure you did.

I just came to ask if you'd like to come...

Ville.

Please forgive me.

I can't live without your daughter and the kids. The kids are...

Alright. Why don't we go.

Happy New Year!

"my New Year.

"my New Year.

Don't go there! They'll explode and you'll lose your eyes.

How many times do I have to tell you?

A good one! - Pete.

Dad has a surprise for you.

It's such a great night. Everybody's having fun.

How are you doing? - I couldn't be happier.

Remember that you can always come to our house.

You just have to cross the road. - I'm fine.

Put your hands over your earlaps.

Don't take them off before I say so. - Okay.

Ready? - Ready.

Isn't this fun?

Pete, you're a good boy.

Here you are, Suvi.

Isn't this a fun party?

You're a schoolboy now.

Hi. - Hi. Nice you could come.

Happy birthday, Pete. - Thanks.

Boys, congratulate Pete.

Happy birthday! - Take your hands out of your pockets.

I'll give you cake, boys.

Happy birthday, Pete.

Remember where we took this one?

Why don't we go to the backyard.

Look.

Pete, come here.

It's been a long time.

Pete, look who's here. Come here.

I'll leave you two alone. - Alright.

Eeva. Go say hi...

Hi, Pete.

You remember me?

I brought you a present. You want to come check it out?

You want to come?

Go ahead.

Let's go.

Thanks.

Okay, you can turn.

Look.

What do you think?

Happy birthday.

You want to test it?

That's it. You're good.

You like it? - Yeah.

Good.

I heard your friend has some Russian thing, -

but this is a real race car. This is something else.

Oh Lord, what a nice present.

Kake, why don't you have coffee with us.

Pete, go ask the other kids to come and see your present.

Come on in. This is Pete's party.

Mom! Come! There's this... Come!

I gotta go,

What is it? - Come!

What the hell are you doing here?

Get the hell out!

I already did what I had to, so I can go.

Pete's over there. Calm down.

Pete's over there. Take it easy.

What?

Come here.

Good morning, honey.

You want to have another birthday party today?

No, I just want to be with you -

and ride my new pedal car a bit.

Yeah, you can do whatever what you want.

Pedal! Pedal hard! It can't be that difficult.

I'm a race car driver.

Faster. - Pedal! Pedal! Pedal!

Have you ridden your car at all?

Kids! Stop!

Pete got the car yesterday. It's his turn. Get off!

Pedal! Pedal!

Stop or you'll get a spanking! Eelis!

What's wrong with you? Get inside.

You want to ride pedal cars?

Mom! Stop!

Mom! Stop!

I see.

If this is the name of the game...

No! Stop!

Listen.

Listen.

Come here.

You're not ticklish?

Listen, little man.

Little man.

Can you take one more? - Yes.

Pete! Let's go.

Guess who's going to learn to swim today?

who?

Put them on.

Now? - Well, yeah.

Who's the first one in the water?

Come on in. Don't be afraid.

You don't have to come this deep.

I can't. I'm itching. - What?

I'm itching!

Here you are, Tarzan, trying to pick up girls.

The swimming lesson has just started.

Don't ever do that again! You understand?

You understand?

What do you say?

Want to see how the new car spits up sand?

Come, Pete. This show is for adults.

Suvi.

Suvi is our Marilyn Monroe and Dad's her sister.

Hey, we gotta go.

I'm sure Grandma's been waiting half an hour for us.

What do you have here?

Silly.

Behave yourself and drive carefully.

You too. It's only three days.

Tell Erkki I said hi.

Grandma's sitting on the steps already.

Grandpa!

Grandpa curtsied.

Grandma's looking all devout.

My ass is numb from waiting for you.

Our farewell meal was pea soup. - I'm happy to hear that.

We'll keep the windows open.

What? - Nothing.

Pertti stayed home to fish? - We needed a break.

You know what Erkki is like...

Have a nice trip.

See you! If we don't turn blind.

Oh my, goodness me! Watch out for cars.

Oh Lord. - Kangaroo gasoline!

What's your cousin Erkki like?

Stop asking questions.

Ouch. Mom, my ear hurts. - That's it. - Really?

That's what you get for bringing us to a place like this.

There's no butter on the bread. - You didn't put butter?

We were out of butter. just eat it.

It's pretty dry-

Whoah. What the hell. What's happening here?

The old lady wanted to have a prayer meeting. - My ear hurts.

No...

Ouch, my ear hurts.

We're not staying here, are we? - Definitely a prayer meeting.

My ear hurls.

How's my favorite cousin? And my favorite aunt.

You forgot to tell us about the meeting?

Oh Lord, the kids have grown.

My ear hurls. - We have to take Suvi to the doctor.

Pete, why don't stay here with Erkki and Grandma.

I want Grandma to come with us. - I'll come with you.

Pete, why don't you stay here. We'll have fun.

Let's take a look at the tractor. - You want to stay?

Yeah, I can stay.

See you. - See you.

Lord, have mercy.

A little encouragement.

I'm a sinner. Lord, have mercy.

In the name of Jesus Christ, you're all welcome here.

We are happy that He has guided us here.

Are you coming? - I can't. I'm feeling nauseated.

Come. Come with me.

I'll help you.

Don't fall down the well.

Jesus Christ is our Lord!

Black sweets.

Liquorice.

Could you walk me to the house?

Go in, so you don't end up with the wrong people.

The power of the Holy Spirit has brought us together -

even from far away.

The word of God manifests itself in people who are afraid of death.

Your sins are forgiven. in the name of Jesus Christ.

Jesus paid for your sins with his blood.

Child, come to us!

Come and join us! Don't be afraid!

Child, Satan will chase you till the end of the earth -

if you don't accept a blessing!

You want to play with us?

We're playing hell.

I'll open the door.

The last scream of a sinner is quiet.

Here you are.

What happened?

He said it was the last scream of that old lady. - Oh.

That's what he said?

Yeah. She was eating liquorice. And her clothes were black.

I'll call her Liquorice Lady.

I'm sure she made it into heaven, since she died at the prayer meeting.

Were you scared? - No use mourning over a stranger.

She was old. It was time for her to go.

I asked Pete if he was scared. - Right.

I wasn't scared. It was kind of exciting.

You were brave.

Was your friend Vetson Petso there? - Yeah, I think so.

Dad!

Dad!

Dad.

Mom, Dad's not home. - I see.

Let's get something to eat. Then we'll go to bed.

Alright.

What the hell? What day is it today?

How come you came today?

Hi to you too. - My little one.

How dare you be in that shape? You should be ashamed.

Don't take her away. I missed her so much.

Come here and we'll talk.

You don't have anything to say to her. You're drunk.

And you know it.

Let's not argue about this. - Yep.

Are we going over to Grandma's house?

No.

Go have something to eat.

What's up, kiddo? Can I sit with you?

Your mom doesn't want my company.

Is your imaginary friend here?

Pete, you know how hard it is to be alone?

Mom doesn't understand it.

Things are going so well for us.

When we talk, we talk about deep things.

With Morn.

About you.

About Suvi.

About life.

You have a great mother.

Pete.

Does Morn ever talk to other men the way she does with me?

Don't turn your head when I'm talking to you.

Is that clear? Is that clear?

What are you doing? Let him go.

That's childish behavior from a grown man.

What? What? I can't hear you.

Dad! Let her go! Let her go!

I was kidding. I wasn't serious.

Pete, knock on the rain gutter.

Alright. Oh dear.

Well, well. It's nice to see you again so soon.

Welcome.

Dad, can we stay here? - Of course you can.

I'll go tell Grandma to make beds for you.

Pete, go check the mouse traps.

Suvi and I will unpack our lunch.

This is the chief engineer himself.

Is it big? - Yes.

Don't touch him yet.

Let's eat first.

Packages from Grandma.

What's in it? - I have no idea.

Let's check in a moment.

Isn't this nice?

Alright.

Pete, you start school in the fall, right? - Yes.

Oh dear.

You have to behave like a big boy there.

Mom.

Honey.

When are we going home?

Weather report for boaters.

There's a high-pressure system in northeastern Finland -

and a low-pressure system throughout the western part of the country.

Here's what you can expect until tomorrow morning.

In the Gulf of Finland: east winds at 3 - 7 meters per second.

In the evening, west winds. Visibility is mostly good.

Well, hi there!

Hi, Dad. - Hi.

I'm in the middle of something.

Please sit down at the table.

This is my favorite food.

I hope you like it.

Butter for your mashed potatoes? - Yeah.

I'm sorry.

It's been tough at work. And I slipped again.

I'm ashamed. Of everything.

I got this in the mail today.

I got accepted to the course in Helsinki.

I'm joining the Detectives Division.

Will you be able to carry a gun under your jacket -

like McCloud and Cannon? - Yes.

I just hope I won't get as fat as Cannon.

Pete, this is for you.

This is for Suvi.

Pass me the bread, please.

Let's eat then.

The song was written by Charles Aznavour -

and here in Finland it was recorded by Tapio Heinonen.

Yesterday I didn't know

When I was young

This is nice music.

I wish life was always sunny

I could feel it on my lips like the taste of honey

I had thousands of dreams when I spread my wings to soar

I built a castle in the sand because I didn't know before

That you don't always get what you desire in your heart

The castles won't last if the earth under them falls apart

Yesterday I didn't know

The earth is so beautiful

It's coming! What is it?

And I found love was in the air

I surrendered to happiness, though I didn't know it was there

I rushed forward and just didn't care

If I was left alone I just wanted tomorrow to be here

Wow.

Sitting in my room alone all the while

Pete.

I dry my tears and just can't seem to smile

Hey. [just made the bed.

Bye.

A new friend each day life would assure me

I didn't say no I saw life before me

My thoughts have changed Each day brings something new

My youth is all but gone I don't know what I'll do

Kangaroo gasoline.

I got a new desk.

My mom packed sheets.

She didn't have to. We have plenty.

Look what I brought.

That's a good one.

And that one.

You want to trade?

We“...

No...

I have two stickers. But you can have a toy car.

I don't want a toy car. I'd like to have one of those coyotes.

My mom never bought me any.

No. You can't play with them.

Isn't it delicious?

Kids, it's time to go to bed.

You too.

Alrighty. Good night.

Good night.

You little monsters.

Why do you have a shoe print on your back?

My dad doesn't live with us anymore.

Look how big. - Look how small.

Let me see. - Look.

You've eaten them. - This is a big one!

Look. The fieldfares have eaten our berries.

Did you hurt yourself?

Don't.

They would cry too. - I'm not crying.

Huh? - I'll never steal again.

I'm sorry.

That's okay. Pete, don't cry.

We all have our bad days.

My mom is afraid of bugs.

Wait.

My dad forgot some stuff when he moved out.

Look what I found.

Pekka! - Whoah.

Boys!

KARZAN ADULT COMICS

K, A, R, Z...

Karzan.

Look at this.

Is the woman eating the man's willy? - I don't know.

Let's look at the other magazines. - Yeah.

Look, a monkey.

He looks silly. - Yeah. Really silly.

I found this in my dad's birch bark backpack.

Eww, what's wrong with him?

He's dead. You see the inside of his head.

The black stuff must be blood.

Goddammit, boys! Come out!

How many times do I have to tell you you're not allowed in here!

What did you burn? There's a terrible smell.

We didn't do anything.

We didn't do anything.

Pete.

Come here.

Get over here.

You know what this is?

You know what's inside?

You'll stand there till you say something.

Dad's angry because this is his work stuff.

Did you take something from it?

Son, don't lie to me.

Calm down.

The sauna is warm. Go to the sauna.

I guess it's not hot enough.

It sounds nice when the fire talks and crackles.

In the stove.

Did you see what was in it?

In the backpack.

You can tell me.

I'm not allowed to look inside.

Stop playing games.

Goddammit!

He turned on the hot water! Goddammit!

Goddammit! - Pete, don't go anywhere!

Shit!

No twigs.

No use baby talking to him.

This'll teach him to behave.

Pete, look.

You can wear your new jacket.

Mom, this is a stupid jacket.

The sleeves are too long. - You can roll them up.

Make them even. - Morn! - Stop whining.

I gotta get to work. - Morn.

What's that in your hand? - Morn!

Nothing.

I hit it on the door handle.

Pete.

You remember Kake?

The man who brought you the pedal car.

Well, yeah.

He's here visiting up north again and he'd like to see you.

Would you like to see him? After school, in the evening?

Do I have to call him Dad too?

I think Kake will do.

You're such a big boy.

Hi.

Hi. Get in.

Nice to see you. How's it going? - it's going well.

The kids are doing fine. They're good kids.

That's good.

Work is the same. - The mayor is the same?

Yeah, Rami is the boss.

You have to sit in the back. - He can wear the seatbelt.

It's better he sits in the back. Get in there.

Okay.

Can you squeeze in there?

(in you?

Don't stay out too late. - We won't. We'll be alright.

Bye.

Let's go.

What do you say? You want to sit in the front?

We don't have to tell anyone.

Huh? - Yeah.

Try to squeeze through there.

It's a bit cramped.

Go ahead. Good. Everything okay.

Whoah. This road sure is bumpy.

You don't have to be nervous because of me.

I'm not nervous because of you.

Oh, you're checking out the roll cage?

They're mandatory in race cars.

I don't race with this car, but I tested the ice race track.

I play hockey and I also do enduro racing.

I haven't driven my pedal car in the winter.

That's good.

I figured you couldn't get a word out of your mouth.

Let's go to my hotel and eat at the joint downstairs.

The food is good. - Yeah. What's a joint?

We'll grab a bite. Dude, you need to learn slang.

Right?

Nice car, isn't it?

This way. Let's check that there are no cars coming.

This way. Let's go in.

Isn't this a cool place?

Hi. - Hello.

Who is this?

This is my boy.

Room 209, right? - Yeah.

Thanks. Let's go.

That's the joint where we can grab a bite.

First time?

You can hang your coat on the rack, -

since we'll be eating in the joint downstairs.

It's nice we can be alone.

We'll be ready to party in a minute.

Are you crying?

I want to go home.

Okay.

Let's go.

You're back already?

You forgot these.

Did you have a good time?

Yeah, we went to the hotel and took the elevator.

Are you my 110)'?

We'll call. Bye.

Is Dad home? - Not yet.

How's it going at back at the ranch? You know, home? - Good.

How’s Pertti?

Come open the door.

Let's go to Grandma's house.

Get dressed.

Where's Mom?

Mom.

Where are you going?

Stop. Let's talk.

Sit.

Sit down.

What should we talk about?

Why do you have to be like this?

I'm doing pretty fuckin’ good.

We“.

Open your heart to me.

None of us has done anything to you.

You haven't either? Done anything?

I'm sorry.

Sorry for treating you so badly.

I love you. You're my everything.

Can you forgive me?

I'm sorry. - Please be quiet. Suvi will wake up.

I'm sorry.

Pete.

Can you forgive Dad for being mean?

I'm a terrible person.

I miss you so much all the time it makes me crazy.

Listen.

How about we go spend the night at Grandma's house and...

Pete. - We'll come back tomorrow.

Pete.

I'm sure it would be...

Don't go to Grandma's house.

Not Grandma's house. Go to a hotel

Pete, it could be nice.

Pete.

Let's go.

Stay out. Think about her.

Mom! - Don't touch her!

You're not taking my girl, goddammit!

Pete, go hide yourself. I'll call the police.

Are you crazy?

lam the police.

You're not calling anyone.

Run. Go to Taina's house.

I lied to you. I never loved you.

I've loved you.

I've loved you.

But now I'm leaving with the kids. I'm leaving you.

Oh yeah?

First Mom will write down what Dad says.

Put your name here.

Write down that I won't pay child support.

I'm not writing anything. I'm not writing anything at all.

Write or I'll shoot you in the face. - Don't hurt the children. - Write.

Don't hurt the children. - Write.

Don't do this. - Write it down.

The keys.

Give me the keys.

Mom. - Quick. Quick.

Mom.

Come.

What's that smell?

It's because everything is new. Soon it'll smell like home here.

Because I fart so much? - Right.

Look, this is our kitchen.

This is the living room.

Come.

Let me show you. This is the bathroom.

Look. A bathtub.

And this is our bedroom. We'll all sleep here.

In the same bed? - No, in the same room.

I would've liked to stay in our old home.

Mom, you're my queen.

Oh honey.

Oh my, it looks nice!

Pete, wait!

Mom? Dad?

It's us. We forgot our keys. - Go ahead, open it.

Hi. - Hi. Oh dear, it's warm here.

We brought you a macaroni casserole. Is that okay? - Yeah!

And we meet again. - Grandpa!

Alright.

Why do you have a broken plastic bag? - You'll find out soon enough.

It's from Santa. - No.

Christmas is in a couple of days.

Don't stay out too late. Is there a dance?

It's a Christmas party at work.

Come home for the night. - Mom...

Kids, are you ready?

Did you cut the hem of your skirt? - It's supposed to be like this.

Well, it's different.

I'll tell you what happened on my way here.

Kids, I'm leaving.

Put on a thicker scarf. You'll freeze like that.

Have a nice evening! - You too. just take the keys and go...

We didn't dare to take the short cut across the river.

The ice might have melted.

We crossed the power plant bridge.

There was a terrible storm, a blizzard and hard winds.

We put scarfs over our faces to protect us from the cold.

Snow flakes felt like pieces of broken glass on our faces.

I noticed the plastic bag was about to fly away with the wind.

I hung onto it, but then...

"Grandma! Grandma!' I yelled.

But Grandma wasn't there.

Oh dear! There I was, hanging from the bridge.

Above dark waters.

When my grip was about to slip, -

someone grabbed the cuff of my shirt -

and started pulling me up, back to life.

When I made it back onto the bridge, -

you won't believe what I saw.

A wolf.

It was a wolf.

When I caught up with Grandma, -

I didn't want to say anything to her.

Oh, I almost forgot.

Look, it's the bag. - The wolf ate our liquorice.

It took my liquorice.

I owed it that.

There's still some left.

Look.

That's right.

Howdy. - Howdy.

What kind of gear does the young man need?

We have new skates on sale.

We need these. - Oh, you're a cross-country skier.

We sure got what you need. Our prices are low.

What's the size of his shoe with two woolen socks? - 37.

I don't need new skis.

You're not going to school with broken skis. - it's okay. - Hush.

Howdy. You're looking for a new snowmobile suit?

I've got good prices on Finnish suits.

No. I'm here with them.

Hi.

Hi.

You found skis?

Boys, don't touch the knives.

I'll give you a knit cap for free. - He's not going to ski with a cap.

Are these any good? - Yes. I'll also throw in these fine caps.

Forget about the caps.

I'm sorry I didn't tell you.

I didn't have money for new skis.

We'll celebrate Christmas soon

We'll light candles and decorate the Christmas tree

We'll wrap gold and silver around the branches for all to see

But let's never lose sight

Of the child who brings us heavenly light

Let's go wish my mom and dad a merry Christmas.

We'll celebrate Christmas soon

Our thoughts are worldly to be sure

It's the same for the rich and poor

There's no one there.

Food, drink and holiday fun

Thoughts of the heavenly child are soon gone

Thank you.

Everything is so meaningless

There is no meaning in all this

Hi, Pete.

Hi.

Who did this?

Was it you? - I didn't...

Don't lie. - I didn't...

Go to your room. You should be ashamed.

I'm sorry.

I want to apologize to you too. Will you forgive me?

Come here, honey.

Close your eyes and I'll remove one card.

Look.

I have a surprise for you tomorrow.

Suvi.

Are you having fun?

You want to go see the sea lane?

Or do you want to go see if the sausages are done?

I'm hungry.

I don't need the ski poles anymore. My skis are so good.

Good job!

Thanks.

It's over.

Hi.

Bye. I'm going home.

I don't want to do this anymore. - Fine.

Ouch.

My pants are also frozen. - Totally frozen.

I can play bandy without knee pads. These are rock hard.

Pete and Suvi, Tarzan is on!

Oh, that's right. - Come!

See you at school!

Come on. Come on.

Quick.

It's Dad. - Dad.

Let's be still. Don't move.

I gotta go pee. - I don't want to see anyone today.

I gotta go pee. - Let's be all quiet.

Y wan-hon. Eeva.

Kids! I know you're home.

Don't be silly. I'd like to talk to you.

A new friend each day life would assure me

I didn't say no I saw life before me

My thoughts have changed Each day brings something new

My youth is all but gone

Goddammit! Shut up!

You're drunk and you're embarrassing us!

Listen, I'm not drunk.

I had one drink so that I'd have the courage to come here.

Wasn't that the most beautiful song?

I don't care. You're not coming in.

We agreed you'd call first to see if it's okay to come.

I'm so sad because of all that has happened.

How can I make it up to you?

I'll do anything.

I already feel like a changed man.

I understand I have nothing if I don't have you.

It meant so much to me.

That day on the frozen sea.

I'm not asking you to come back.

I guess us living together is a thing of the past.

I just can't stand being away from you for very long.

We could come up with a schedule.

Can I go to the bathroom now? - Sure, honey.

Is my girl there?

Hi, it's Dad! - She went to the bathroom.

Pertti, maybe it's better you go home.

We should start getting ready for bed.

We'll call tomorrow.

I can't leave yet. I have a present for Pete.

Did you just drink something?

Yes.

I took a sip out of a soda bottle.

Open the mail slot and smell the bottle. - C'mon.

What do you have for Pete? - This guitar.

it's got the case, strings and picks. It's a good guitar.

What's the name of this... Landola.

Open the door so I can give it to Pete.

Would you like to have the guitar?

Good. Thank you.

Vetson Petso.

Look what you've done to me, you fucking bitch.

I can only see my kids through a fucking mail slot!

Now you've seen them. Give him the guitar and get out!

I'll disappear from your life -

if you give me an honest answer to one question.

How many guys have you fucked in this building?

That's enough! Get out of my apartment!

Listen.

You're nothing to us anymore.

You're dead to us and I hate you! From the bottom of my heart!

I called the police.

You feel like a man now?

The center of the universe.

God, you're childish.

Eeva.

Shit. He's in our car. You want to press charges this time?

Vetson Petso.

Vetson Petso.

Mom.

Pete, take the key.

Dear God, thank you for everything.

Bless those mice and take them into heaven, -

even though they were thieves.

Always protect Suvi, Mom, Grandma and Grandpa.

Give people the courage to live peacefully with one another.

And save those who are about to get run over by a train -

or sink to the bottom of the sea.

Keep people above dark waters.

And let the water take dark thoughts out to sea -

and onto desert islands -

so that they don't bother anyone.

Don't let anyone ever shoot another person.

Don't be mad at us people.

Bless Dad and give him strength to stay healthy.

Give Mom a nice man -

with whom she can live and laugh the way other women laugh.

Dear God, let people be happy.
