What a perfect time for my family to show how much they appreciate me for putting up with all the crap they put me through on a daily basis. Come to think of it, it might not be such a bad idea if they could apologize for a few of those things while they're at it.
That's what they should get me as a gift. A card that simply says "Dear Mom, Sorry for..."
Here's a list of things they could start with:
1. Sorry for telling my teachers you don't feed me lunch.
2. Sorry for being bad at finger painting.
3. Sorry I've probably permanently damaged your liver.
4. Sorry I made a list of people I love and you weren't on it...but fire trucks were.
5. Sorry I think you look like this...
7. Sorry I sometimes don't like wearing shirts...
Or pants...
8. Sorry I told the car salesman that the cup holders in the new car would be perfect for your wine.
9. Sorry I made you go see The Wiggles live in concert.
10. Sorry I totally F'd up your boobs.
So it's just a short list but it's a start. I'm sure there are lots and lots of other things I could add but if I got a card like this my response would probably be:
"Aw! That's so nice! Thank you for apologizing, kids. And in return...I'm sorry I use your plates to salt my margarita glasses."
How about that! A spam comment that actually made perfect sense! You did make some very valid points and the rest of your site IS extremely good! Good job McSpammy!
ReplyDeleteI do think your idea is excellent! I think I would add: I apologize for...making you pee your pants every time you sneeze, never ever going to sleep when I should, and telling every new person I meet that you and daddy are separated. (The last one is my fav)
