It says: “Joy to the World. Peace in Every heart. All is calm. All is bright. Finally a peaceful night.” As you’ll notice the kid is tied up in Christmas lights and has tape over his mouth. Oh.My.Word! We cracked up so hard at this. I don’t know this boy but I know his Mama. She and I went to school together in the 11th grade. We were on the year book staff together which was the biggest joke ever. We’d go out in town during school hours and try to sell ads for the yearbook. I’m pretty sure we didn’t sell one single ad. But we sure had fun. She taught me that you could go to Long John Silvers and ask for “crumbs” for free. They’d put them in a little container and we’d get water. And we’d have us a little snack and on the way out be like, “Oh, you want to advertise in our school yearbook?”
This is also my friend who played hide and go seek with me during Bible class. We’d ask to go to the bathroom at separate times and then go to the opposite end of the school ( a church ) where the nursery was and play hide and go seek. This deal ended quickly when I crawled in a crib and BROKE it. I was scared to death as I confessed to my Bible teacher what I had done. He forgave me thankfully. So yeah, this kids Mama was a crazy mess like me and that’s why we were such good friends I suppose. So when I got this card in the mail from her it just made sense.
Merry Christmas friends! May you laugh your way through the hiccups and wedgies of life otherwise you’ll turn into a grumpy old man or woman.
So cute! Thanks for all the wonderful memories…It’s certain my little Jack Nut will be just as nuts as his daddy and mamma! Merry Christmas to an unforgettable partner in crime!
Thanks my friend! We surely had some good times. May our children only be half as bad as us. Ha! Kidding. Merry Christmas to you guys!
