GOOD NAPKINS...ahhhhh...the joys of having girls...
My mother taught me to read when I was four years old
(her first
mistake)...
One day, I was in the bathroom and noticed one of the
cabinet doors was
ajar. I read the box in the cabinet. I then asked my
mother why she was
keeping 'napkins' in the bathroom. Didn't they belong in
the kitchen?
Not wanting to burden me with unnecessary facts, she
told me that those
were for "special occasions" (her second mistake)...
Now, fast forward a few months....It's Christmas Day,
and my folks are
leaving to pick up my uncle and his wife for dinner. Mom
had assignments
for all of us while they were gone. Mine was to set the
table.
When they returned, my uncle came in first and
immediately burst into
laughter. Next, in came his wife who gasped, then began
giggling. Next, in
came my father, who roared with laught! er. Then in came
Mom, who almost
died
of embarrassment when she saw each place setting on the
table with a
"special occasion" napkin at each plate, with the fork
carefully arranged
on top.
I had even tucked the little tail in so they didn't hang
off the edge!!
My mother asked me why I used these and, of course, my
response sent the
other adults into further fits of laughter. But, Mom,
you SAID they were
for special occasions!!!"
Oh it wasn't me, it was an email forward I received. But I bet they did. :) My daughter calls them hats, she was trying to wear one the other day!! Another friend of mine had a son that called them airplanes, he had them stuck all over the livingroom window!! :) Kids keep us laughing...that alone should keep us healthy! :) Caitlin Lorraine
