We recently cleaned out my grandmother's storage unit and found oooldes of funnies, such as this. On May 31, 1970, my Uncle Sam turned 9 years old. The next day, he ran away from home leaving behind this precious note:
Apparently turning 9 years old was just too much!!! Ha! Don't fret: he returned home safe and sound without FBI or police involvement. And my grandparents really are the nicest people ever. Today is my Uncle Sam's 50th birthday --- I am wishing him the BEST birthday!!! And please don't runaway tomorrow!!! We want to celebrate YOU all week!!! Chin chin to priceless family funnies.

That is too cute! I 'tried' to run away when I was five and defiantly told my mother I was doing so... she said "Ok, let me help you pack..." and proceeded to pull out my Strawberry Shortcake suitcase and fill it with clothes...
ReplyDeleteI was so perplexed I stubbornly said, "Nevermind!"
And that was that. Mom's are good like that. :)
This cracks me up! When my dad was little he would pack his bags and run away to the neighbors' when he got mad!
ReplyDeletethis is HILARIOUS!
ReplyDeleteaww that is too funny!
ReplyDeleteSO funny! I hope my mom saved some notes like this from me to find in forty years!
