Only a joke, but yes it sounds good. And you certainly deserve the blessing.
Not many can say that nowadays, as the children of today live in total freedom to do whatever they like, and supervision is minimal. We didn't understand the strictness at the time, but it really paid off in our adult lives. Love in my case was scarce, but I don't hold it against anyone, as my mom had a family of 5 to support and she worked very hard. We are all born with love and it's our choice if we want it to flourish. So, you guys as parents made the right choice.
