Aunt Marges Christmas Letter

Aunt Marge’s Christmas letter sat unopened again. Most of us walked by it, and said “not by the hair of our chinny chin chin” We knew what it would hold Accomplishments of her six awful kids We had nothing to do with them Thanks to their behaviors our family reunions had been on the skids. This one is perfect. That one is fine. Billy is the president of railroad nine. Tommy is an outstanding citizen now. Her children were all amazing, wonderful, her family a wow. Aunt Marge has been bragging about them in Christmas letters for fifty three years. In truth they are spoiled brats have caused lots of us tears Her braggadocio bragging is annoying to me. That unopened letter finally finds its way to the trash bin without being opened, as our family all did agree.
