~~~~~~~ SPECIAL THOUGHTS:

At a shower tea I attended, the last gift to be opened was accompanied by a card reading: "May this always be so," and signed, "Much love, Mother and Dad." Inside was a beautifully framed, yellowed piece of paper with childish handwriting on it, which had once graced the bulletin board in the bedroom of the young bride-to-be. There were tears in her eyes as she read us the message: "Today we had a test in history. I had to go to the dentist too. We did not win the paper drive. This is the worst day I have ever had in my life."
