FROM CRADLE TO LADLE

Added on: 29th May 2014

 

JOHN INVITED HIS MOTHER OVER FOR DINNER.

 

DURING THE MEAL HIS MOTHER COULDN'T HELP

 

NOTICING HOW BEAUTIFUL JOHN'S ROOMMATE WAS.

 

SHE HAD LONG BEEN SUSPICIOUS OF A RELATIONSHIP

 

BETWEEN JOHN AND HIS ROOMMATE AND THIS ONLY

 

MADE HER MORE CURIOUS. OVER THE COURSE OF

 

THE EVENING, WHILE WATCHING THE TWO INTERACT,

 

SHE STARTED TO WONDER IF THERE WAS MORE

 

BETWEEN JOHN AND THE ROOMMATE THAN MET THE EYE.

 

READING HIS MOM'S THOUGHTS, JOHN VOLUNTEERED,

 

"I KNOW WHAT YOU MUST BE THINKING, BUT I ASSURE YOU,

 

JULIE AND I ARE JUST ROOMMATES."

 

ABOUT A WEEK LATER, JULIE CAME TO JOHN AND SAID,

 

"EVER SINCE YOUR MOTHER CAME TO DINNER,

 

I'VE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND THE BEAUTIFUL GRAVY LADLE.

 

YOU DON'T SUPPOSE SHE TOOK IT, DO YOU?"

 

JOHN SAID, "WELL, I DOUBT IT, BUT I'LL WRITE

 

HER A LETTER JUST TO BE SURE."

 

SO, HE SAT DOWN AND WROTE, "DEAR MOTHER,

 

I'M NOT SAYING YOU 'DID' TAKE A GRAVY LADLE FROM

 

MY HOUSE, AND I'M NOT SAYING YOU 'DID NOT'

 

TAKE A GRAVY LADLE. BUT, THE FACT REMAINS

 

THAT ONE HAS BEEN MISSING EVER SINCE

 

YOU WERE HERE FOR DINNER."

 

SEVERAL DAYS LATER, JOHN RECEIVED A LETTER

 

FROM HIS MOTHER WHICH READ:

 

"DEAR SON, I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU 'DO' SLEEP WITH

 

JULIE, AND I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU 'DO NOT' SLEEP

 

WITH JULIE. BUT, THE FACT REMAINS THAT IF

 

SHE WAS SLEEPING IN HER OWN BED,

 

SHE WOULD HAVE FOUND

 

THE GRAVY LADLE BY NOW.

 

LOVE, MOM.

 

LESSON OF THE DAY: DON'T LIE TO YOUR MOTHER.
