I received this envelope in the mail from my parents last week. (Please excuse me for being paranoid and blocking out my address, but you gotta be careful these days.)
When I opened it, all I found was a check made out to me. No note, no nothing. So, looking at the envelope again, I noticed this written at the bottom corner of the envelope:
I just laughed. They are too funny. talking to my mom later that day this is what she told me, "No more cereal, okay? Mommy, daddy think this money helps you for eating."
Truly. I feel full already.

Hilarious! So cute.
cute - PS if you didn't block your address your blurker friends could also send you fun things in the mail :) like money or cereal!
Too funny! If we tell your parents that I eat cereal for dinner sometimes, do you think they would send me money too? Since I have kids, I have to make up excuses like it's "Breakfast for Dinner Day" or "Backwards Day"--as opposed to "Mommy is Too Tired to Cook" Day :)
Your parents are SO funny! I wish I would have gotten to know them better while we were in college. They are really sweet to be concerned about you just eating cereal! I still laugh when I think about your conversation with them.
Seriously one of my favorite stories ever! Can't stop laughing! Love your mama and papa stories!
awesome. i am sending an email RIGHT NOW to my dad telling him i ate cereal for breakfast ... he will probably ask is can come over for some.
i can borrow your parents for awhile? it's not really so i can receive money in the mail, (although that would be fabulous!) but so i have hysterical stories to tell. i hear the OHs!!!
i love that the cereal saga continues! the best part is the "for eating" written on the outside of the envelope
Oh my funny! You always have the best parent stories. That is awesome.
you can buy tons more cereal with that money! I LOVE cereal!
Ooooh that is so sweet that it brought tears to my eyes...funny yet so sweet how much your parents care for you. Love it!
that is so funny. I have to tell you though that it reminds me of the time when I was still living at home, and my mom asked me what sounded good for dinner. I said "cold cereal", because that sounded good to me at the moment, and she surprised me by saying "good idea, you're right", and my whole family had cereal for dinner that night. It was awesome.
So thoughtful of your parents, though!
