Easily half of the text that I received from her leave me like this…

I even had to have the “stop sending the eggplant emoji” discussion.

Oh...and someone tried to steal the copper out of her house a few days ago. The house blew up and also blew up the houses around it.“ (Detroit, of course.)

Me again...

Texts between my wife and her mom are like that. She shows them to me occasionally and all I can do is shake my head and say WTF.

My mother got rid of her mobile phone...which was a flip phone.

My parents don’t have an internet connection, either.

So, be happy yours have even embraced any technology at all!

Texting is my wife’s default form of communication. I can be sitting beside her on the couch and I’ll get a text from her that fills up the screen on my iPhone.
