My mother sent this to me this morning it started my day off great!!
The Good Napkins......
THIS IS SOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUNNY!!!!
My mother taught me to read when I was four years old (her first
mistake).
One day, I was in the bathroom and noticed one of the cabinet doors was
ajar I read the box in the cabinet. I then asked my mother why she was
keeping 'napkins' in the bathroom. Didn't they belong in the kitchen?
Not wanting to burden me with unnecessary facts, she told me that those
were for "special occasions" (her second mistake).
Now fast forward a few months....It's Thanksgiving Day, and my folks
are
leaving to pick up my uncle and his wife for dinner.
Mom had assignments for all of us while they were gone. Mine was to set
the table.
When they returned, my uncle came in first and immediately burst into
laughter.
Next came his wife who gasped, then began giggling.
Next came my father, who roared with laughter.
Then came Mom, who almost died of embarrassment when she saw each place
setting on the table with a "special occasion" napkin at each plate,
with
the fork carefully arranged on top. I had even tucked in the tails in
so
they didn't hang off the edge!
My mother asked me why I used these and, of course, my response sent the
other adults into further fits of laughter.
"But, Mom, you SAID they were for special occasions

Thanks for sharing..............
