Dorothea:
That was my husband's Ford Galaxy. We drove Jamie home from the hospital in that car.
Jamie:
My mom was forty when she had me. Everyone told her she was too old to be a mother.
Dorothea:
I put my hand through the little window, and he'd squeeze my finger, and I'd tell him life was very big... and unknown.
Jamie:
And she told me that there were animals, and sky, and cities...
Dorothea:
...music, movies. He'd fall in love, have his own children, have passions, have meaning, have his mom and dad.
Jamie:
When they got divorced, my father moved back east and left the car with us. He calls on birthdays and Christmas. Last time I felt close to him was on my birthday in 1974. He bought me mirrored sunglasses. I saw the president fall down the stairs and I threw up on the carpet.
Dorothea:
Since then it's just been us.
