Every family has their moments, their conversations that will go down in history as being unforgettable moments of hilarity. For my family, that conversation happened last night.
It all began with a text message. Innocent enough the text came from my mother. It said: “I love you 2 much 4 ever. I can’t wait to see you at Thanksgiving.”

Seeing as how I live 40 minutes from my parents and see them more or less on a weekly basis, I texted my mom back with: “Thanks, but I’m sure I’ll see you well before Thanksgiving.”

Mom immediately responds with, “I sent this to all of my wonderful children.”

Now my mom can be emotional, she loves us all a ton. But even for her, this pushes it to a little bit odd. So I called her – Here’s a conversation recap:

Me: Mom what was up with those crazy texts?

Mom: Well, I was watching this show and this woman had a kidnap code, and when her daughter got kidnapped she was able to do 1,2,4 on her hands on tv. You know I (1) will always love you 2 much (2) 4ever (4). 1,2,4. That way you’ll know I will always love you.
