The telephone rang as I worked on my website, www.FunnyPhotosContest.com for cute or funny photos and photo captions and as they say, “You could have blown me over with a feather.” I couldn’t believe my ears when I heard my son’s voice calling to wish me a Happy Birthday. I thought he would surely forget my birthday and so I can’t tell you how thrilled it made me to receive his phone call!!
My son lives in Chicago and rarely calls or visits. Though it makes me feel sad, I do understand. My Mother told me years ago, “A daughter’s a daughter the rest of your life, but a son’s a son ‘till he takes a wife.” And yet, whenever I feel that my son has neglected me and I least expect it, he does something special that warms my heart.
