My Dad is a Fob

A Purrfectly Wonderful Card!

Posted on October 6, 2009 at 07:27am

This is the birthday card that I got from my father and his wife this year.

A few things:
1) Dad picked out the card. The handwriting is his.
2) I love cats, but I’ve never owned one.
3) I turned 46 this year.

A Good Use of the Thesaurus

My nephew, Jalen, is turning one so my dad decided to buy a birthday card for him. It took him about an hour to write something using his dictionary/thesaurus. The result…

Hi Jallen:
Birthday so gay. You life so happy like a blooming flower. In the garden of eternal joy.
We all love you from Grandma & grandpa 7/18/09

For YOU, honourable grandchild

So, this is technically from my grandpa… but I thought it was so funny and cute! Below is what the card says:

We are so happy that YOU to graduate Master Degree from Teacher Shool of Columbia University with great success and honours!
Grandma gave you $15 to you as we met together in the restaurant – Yum’s Bistro. It was a joke! We hope you forget this matter, otherwise you may reserve this joke in your mind.
My heartiest congratulation again!

With love,
Grandparent.

A. love that they sign it grandparent
B. Grandparents playing pranks? Amazing. I was confused by the $15 as well… as my grandma followed me to the restroom so to not allow my parents to see her give me the money….
C. use of honours… not only FOB but British now as well

I thought “best” meant I couldn’t get any better

Dad’s birthday wishes started to sound urgent this year:

You turned out wonderful, but you could be even better!

Every year, the best part of my birthday is the card my parents send me.
