Knowing When to Say "No"

Listening to A Prairie Home Companion this evening. Garrison is reading a bunch of "Hi Mom/Dad/Honey/whoever" letters from people in the crowd to those still at home. He does this every week, and there's always something funny or surprising in them.

Tonight one of them went something like this, "Hello Mom, Just wanted to thank you for never having the heart to say, 'No.' You're a great Mom. From your thirteen children and seventten grandchildren."

Heh. Just enough innocence to the wording to make you wonder -- almost -- if the "kids" knew what they were saying. That made me laugh out loud.
