A recent conversation Wesley and I had about his favorite holiday.
Me: “Are you going to plant a tree for Arbor Day?” If any of you knew Wesley is college, he was a non-showering-frisbee throwing-tree hugging-hippie. Jokingly, asking him if he was going to participate in the “hippie” holiday, as I like to call it.
To my surprise he responded,
“Yeah, I think I will. I like Arbor Day. I think I am going to plant a Japanese maple.” I don’t know why I was surprised.
Me: “Hey I love Japanese maples! They are so pretty!”
Wesley: “They look a lot like weed…”
Me: “NO they do not! They have a burgundy color and have pretty leaves… they don’t look like weed leaves.”
Wesley: “I know what a Japanese maple looks like, we had them in our backyard when we lived in Columbia.”
Me: “Then you should know that they don’t look like weed leaves!”
Wesley: “Have you ever seen a weed leaf?”
Me: “Well, no. Have you?”
Wesley: “Yeah, we had them in our backyard when we lived in Columbia.”
What have I married into? The drug Cartel family perhaps…
*Clearly, Wesley was joking and I don’t know anyone who is involved with the Cartel, and even if I did, I wouldn’t tell you… I might get shot…
