The following are true stories shown in the Reader's Digest

 

Stop The Presses 

My husband had just opened a printing business.  He called it Alpha Thermography because he specialized in thermography, a type of raised print.  One day I overheard my mom telling one of our friends, "It's called Alpha Pornography,"

 

What Will The Neighbors Say?

When my mother did her laundry on a sunny day, she liked to hang her wash on a clothesline in the backyard.  I was on the phone with her when an unexpected shower popped up.  She said to me, "I have to go.  It's starting to rain, and I have to go outside and take off my clothes,"

 

Wait - She Really Is A Good Girl

My preteen daughter and I were out shopping.  I called her over to where I was, and she responded with the same thing she always said whenever I needed her for something:  "just a sec!' I didn't even think before I called back, "No more secs for you young lady.  Get over here right now!"  Big oops as soon as it left my mouth-and I noticed that people had turned around to stare at us.

 

The First National Bank Of Mom

My mom spoke very little English.  When I was going through my rebellious teenage years, I would often taunt her with, "Leave me alone!"  One day, I overheard her commiserating with a friend.  "All my daughter ever says to me is, "Give me a loan, give me a loan!"
