A Quarter's Worth of Fun

Submitted by Joyce Faulkner on December 4, 2011 - 20:37

My son Nate married a beautiful young woman named Nora. Aside from being warm and loving, she makes me laugh – a lot. 
Here’s an example of why.
I was just checking into the Holiday Inn Express in Elizabeth, NC when Nora text messaged me. “Did you find my coat?”
Me: “What coat?”
Nora: “My coat that Nate left in NC.”
Me: “Where did he leave it?”
Nora: “Dunno. Airport?”
I sat down on the bed and had a good laugh before I picked up my phone to text back.
