I Did Not Ask You

To the best nieces in the world,

Do you remember this?

I was on the phone talking with a Verizon representative who was driving me crazy.

I put the phone on mute and asked one of you – then 10 years old – to punch me to put me out of my misery. You kindly said, “I don’t want to.”

I asked your mom (my sister) to punch me to put me out of my misery. She kindly said, “Sorry…”

From across the room, the then-6 year old said, “I’ll do it.” And I said, “I know. That’s why I did not ask you.”

I was so weak! LOL!

Love,

Auntie
