    If not just delete the thing. This is copied just as it was sent to me in an E-Mail........

    THE GOOD NAPKINS...ahhhhh...the joys of having girls...

    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 the little tail 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!!!"

    Isn't it easier to just tell the truth?????????

    Pass this on to Girlfriends who need a good laugh!

    lol! That reminded me of a clip on one of those funny video shows where a couple of little boys were sticking pads with wings on a window thinking they were "airplane stickers". lol

    yEah. I love it how innocently children play with those things. One day, we gave a condom to our 8 years younger brother to play with. (he was about 5 at the time). He had fun believing it was a balloon.

    Aww, That's cute.

    I also saw the video clip with the little boys and their "airplane stickers."
    It was hilarious.
