For those who know my family, you are very much aware of the fact that my father is the one who is constantly telling jokes - whether funny or not. It's not that my mother's side isn't funny - for they are (Uncle Craig and Uncle Ray were crazy)!
My mother, the quiet one, who is an amazing writer and publisher of many books, devotionals, and S.S. material, has a minor flaw. She is horrid (is that too harsh?) at writing words to songs that would be sung to common tunes. Our family makes sure she never forgets this. (Aren't we grand?) Or maybe it isn't the words, just the 3 different keys it took her to sing it for us. (Love you, Mom!) Although, as I mentioned that she is the quiet one, she sometimes comes up with one-liners that totally crack me up. And this last one was no exception.
She recently posted this picture on Facebook with the caption:
"Lovin' my life"
Later on in the week, my mom had commented about how I was working in the kitchen while sitting on a stool. A friend of ours saw this comment and asked, "Wait a sec. I think I missed something...again. (He is in the Army) What's going on with Melanie that she hasn't been able to be up?"
Now, you have to understand that this fellow goes by "Bill Bean". No, that is not his real name. I do believe it's for privacy issues. Or just quirkiness. If you knew him, you'd get it. That's why we love him...! ;-) So...
My mom's response was: "Baby #4, Billy B."
Totally cracking up over here. What? You're not? Well, what if I had her write you up a diddly about Moses crossing the Red Sea to the tune of London Bridge? ....er, or not....
Love you, Mom!
You are the best Mawmaw in the world. Can't wait to see you with #4!
