Lily’s Surprise

Don has a couple of problems: his memory is poor, and his handwriting looks like a second-grader’s.

Lily is a smart kid, but her execution needs a little work. For one thing, it helps to find out what Mom’s name is and remember it. Her parents explained that Lily was promised a surprise if she stayed quiet enough for her mother to take a nap. The surprise was Reece’s sticks, so there’s no spoilers to keep from her anymore.

In the discussion at reddit, people told stories from their own childhoods, like the kid who forged a note from God, the woman who knew her Dad’s name but not his age, and the one who wrote a threatening letter to the Tooth Fairy.
