The Dress
Jennifer's wedding day was fast approaching. Nothing could dampen her excitement
-- not even her parents' nasty divorce. Her mother had found the PERFECT dress
to wear and would be the best dressed mother-of-the-bride ever!
A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn that her father's new wife had
bought the exact same dress! Jennifer asked her to exchange it, but she refused.
"Absolutely not. I look like a million bucks in this dress, and I'm wearing it,"
she replied.
Jennifer told her mother who graciously said, "Never mind sweetheart. I'll get
another dress. After all, it's your special day." A few days later, they went
shopping and did find another gorgeous dress.When they stopped for lunch,
Jennifer asked her mother, "Are you going to return the other dress? You really
don't have another occasion where you could wear it."
She just smiled and replied, "Of course I do, dear. I'm wearing it to the
rehearsal dinner!"
NOW I ASK YOU...IS THERE A WOMAN OUT THERE, ANYWHERE, WHO WOULDN'T ENJOY THIS
STORY?
