Abstract

My daughter, Bessie Garcia, had very little self-discipline. The only reason she studied at all was that I constantly pushed her.

Three months before the SATs, I could not resist sending a question to myself ten years into the future.

“Did Bessie get into an Ivy League school? What kind of job does she have now? Please tell me the last three years of hard work were worth it! How far have Meera and I gotten on our trip around the world? Did we have a second child?”

A hopeful smile spread across my face.
