mom getting old

2629 · Jun 24th, 2002, 10:10 AM

Three sons left home, went out on their own and prospered. Getting back
together, they discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother.

The first said, "I built a big house for our mother."

The second said,"I sent her a Mercedes with a driver."

The third smiled and said, "I've got you, both beat. You remember how Mom
enjoyed reading the Bible? And you know she can't see very well. I sent her a
remarkable parrot that recites the entire Bible. It took elders in the church 12
years to teach him. He's one of a kind. Mama just has to name the chapter and
verse, and the parrot recites it."

Soon thereafter, mom sent out her letters of thanks:

"Milton," she wrote one son, "The house you built is so huge. I live in only one
room, but I have to clean the whole house."

"Gerald," she wrote to another, "I am too old to travel. I stay most of the time
at home, so I rarely use the Mercedes. And the driver is so rude!"

"Dearest Donald," she wrote to her third son, "You have the good sense to know
what your mother likes. The chicken was delicious."
