I would love a big family. I have this vision in my mind where I have four or five children, and then, when I'm in my 60s, it's Christmas, and all my kids come home with their spouses and lots of grandchildren. By the end of it, there are 40 to 50 people in my house, and I look around, feeling totally happy, surrounded by my family.

In the fields of southwest Iowa, my parents and grandparents worked and sacrificed. Like so many Iowans, the American Dream for them was never about wealth or fame. Their dream was to leave their children and grandchildren a better life, with greater opportunity, than their own.

My children were educated in what were then Chinese schools, and they learned English as a subject. But they made up when they went to English-language universities. So they didn't lose out. They had a basic set of traditional Confucian values. Not my grandchildren.
