For years my son Rick’s forgetfulness has made me feel bad. He forgets to send me birthday cards, neglects to call me, and doesn’t respond to my emails. But an email yesterday from my daughter, Cathy, has lifted my sadness forever.
She called Rick on Wednesday to wish him a Happy Anniversary. Since the date Rick and Jen married coincides with her son Jared’s birthday, my daughter has no trouble remembering their anniversary. It’s also easy to remember as the wedding took place in Las Vegas on Friday May 26th during the 2006 Memorial Day weekend.
Happy Anniversary she said when Rick answered the phone. But Rick was dumfounded. He replied, “Oh, I thought it was Friday.” When Cathy told me of Rick’s response, I smiled and realized, if he forgets to wish his wife a happy anniversary, I don’t ever have to feel bad again. In addition, I laughed out loud when my daughter told me how she answered Rick, “I told him it changes days each year.” What was he thinking???
