Cards

I just had a thought.

As I finished drawing and writing in cards for my mother-in-law recently (mother's day and birthday), I sat back and looked at my artwork happily.  Then I heard my mother's voice.  "You always put too much in cards and make them look messy," she said.

For the first time in my life, however, I didn't feel bad about it.  Instead, I said somewhat defiantly, "Mary will like it."  Then I felt happy again.
