PhotoTalk: And she knew it too.
Anthony always thought Maria was his mother’s favorite.
But when mother allowed her to stand on the new sofa for the photo, it confirmed it.

Where did you find this shot?? It is awesome… I hope it is one of your family photos :)
Boys always think the girls are the favorites. It’s not by choice, it’s just we’re so much better.
But Anthony hooked up with that preacher from Terre Haute and was a rising star in the evangelical community. Once he started his own church he filled the spacious meeting rooms and lobbies with sofas Just. Like. Mama’s. And each one had it’s own sign above it:
STANDING ON THE SOFAS IS A SIN.
SINNERS GO TO HELL.
THAT MEANS YOU, MARIA.
Obviously, true !
I’m inspired to write a haiku entitled “Revenge” for you.
Maria is smug
But she doesn’t know the next
Shot is her falling
OH goddnes…I’ve got ‘that’ sofa … and mirror too!
(hand-me-downs from an old aunt). I wonder what became of matching side chair and coffee table?
We won’t talk anymore about the sofa (or mirror)…this is a family site;)
