This is the first time I've ever been referred to as "Prince Charming" ["A Fairy Tale" by Sallie Satterthwaite, The Citizen, Oct. 21]. Or maybe not my first wife did have a lot to say before she died.

But I am touched (and very much amused) by such a tale of my courtship. The only corrections I'll add are that my eldest daughter is 13, and that I don't believe my future mother-in-law to be a witch at all.

Sallie, don't fret over being a mother if you weren't concerned you wouldn't be as good a mother as you are.
