Best (unexpected) Christmas card
|
I have often teased my mother about her choice of cards for my birthday, Christmas, and other special occasions. They are flowery, sweet, and sentimental. These are never my choice for her. My selections are always humorous and irreverent, even though she knows how much I love and cherish her. Last Christmas her selection was especially sugary. I kidded her about it for months afterward, often lapsing into verbatim quotes.
This morning I received her Christmas card. On the front Santa is seated and looking over a very long list. It read: SANTA IS CHECKING HIS LIST TO SEE WHO HAS BEEN NAUGHTY AND WHO HAS BEEN NICE............
Inside it read: WITH ANY LUCK, HE'LL GET YOU MIXED UP WITH SOMEONE ELSE!
I had to congratulate her. I laughed as much from the surprise of her sending it, as I did from the message.
A very Merry Christmas to you and yours! NR
