Hidemi's Rambling No.74 Dec 26, 2009

My mother's hobby is drawing. She drew a Christmas tree on her Christmas card that I received yesterday. Over the years, she has gotten influenced by me for a Christmas card which she didn't have a custom of sending. This year, she wrote 'Merry Xmas' in English baldly and decoratively across the tree. It must have been a big challenge for her who is not used to writing English. Sadly, she misspelled 'merry' and wrote 'Marry Xmas!' instead. For years, she has kept urging me to marry, and it finally got her. A word 'marry' automatically pops up in her brain when she tries to communicate with me...
