Later that year, I met my dream guy. So caballero, so talented, so athletic, so hard-working, so fun. He was everything on my list. I married him.
My dream guy had a dream--to help humanity by being a doctor.
I took one for the team and sold my dream car. We bought your grandma's old car--an Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera. So practical, so dependable. Not quite as cool.
Bonus: three car seats fit in the back seat!
Suddenly we had three little ones and I knew our days of fitting in a sedan were coming to an end. We were going to become a mini-van fam! I wasn't excited about it. I don't love mini-vans. "Ugh!" was all I could think when I thought about driving around in one. Then I saw this (thanks, Cami!):

And I thought, "OK, I can do this!"
Then my dream guy had a different dream. He wanted to tow our stuff across the country in a trailer. A mini-van was out. We were both so relieved! We bought a Chevy Suburban. So big, so cool, so fun! The pride in my ride is back, ohhh yeahhh!
