Mrs. Noah Lyman's POV
A nice Jewish girl. That's all I ask of you. Joshua, if your father were still with us, he would be the one telling you this, as it is not a Mother''s place to speak of such things. I feel I must take it upon myself to do so. I have been waiting patiently for you to come to realize this on your own, but my friends have begun commenting to me about your marital status. So I must bring this matter to your attention.
Joshua, it pains me in so many ways to have to state this, but my friends are implying that you are avoiding marriage. They are saying you might be gay.
Joshua. The time has come for you to do your duty for our family. I will help you find a nice Jewish girl. The time has come for you to settle down and do the baby dance.
