Greeting Cards. Mirror, Mirror on the Wall.

Greeting Cards. Mirror, Mirror on the Wall.

"Wal*Mart after church.
With the children.
"No." "No." And "No."
I said "No" to objects for ourselves. We were to buy
birthday presents and cards.
In the card aisle my daughter hands me one.
"This is you..."

 

Okay. Maybe that is me on certain mornings.
Then she showed me this one.
I held my breath.

 



"This is not you."
Thank God she said that.
I can take the "you're mean" the "you're not a cool mom."
But the old lady on the greeting card?
That would have hurt.

    I laughed (and nearly choked on my fresh salsa) when I read this! Kids are fabulous as keeping us humble…
