Congratulations, Patti! (And to your daughter, too!) But, not to rain on your parade, if you think she ain't gonna cost you more money and will be able to help the bill-paying, well, you know. Get ready for your salary and bank accounts to have to fasten their seat-belts. I think I cost my parents more money in the years after I graduated high school and then graduated college (and I lived at home) until I moved away to attend grad college, than I did in all the 18 previous years combined. As one of my favorite lines from Roseanne (spoken by her husband Dan) said: "This parenting sure isn't turning out the way they explained in the brochure."
