cards for one and all.

the greeting card section.  i find it a bit overwhelming sometimes.  so many options.  it’s not always easy to find what you want to convey in a sea of neatly folded papers. 

i was taking my time to find the perfect mother’s day cards.  rose colored tabs marked the intended receiver… “mother, mother-in-law, sister, grandmother, like a mother to me, father.”

“father?!” i stopped.

yes, neatly marked FATHER in a pastel pink divider. 

i stepped back- yes… it’s the month of may, not june.  it’s mother’s day.

i HAD to look at this.

i pulled out the card.  it was powder blue on the outside with a feeble attempt of a stylized silver flower and it said something to the effect of:

“Dad, we know that Mother’s Day is a special day and we want to let you know that YOU’RE special too”  

the inside was scribed,

“So thanks for being such a great Dad and enjoy this special day!”

seriously?  a mother’s day card for dad so that he doesn’t feel left out?!  he only has to wait 4 weeks and he’ll have his own special day called FATHER’S day!  i kind of wonder if there will be father’s day cards for mother’s in june?

to better things (unlike overachieving greeting cards),

happy sunny monday
