Am working on Vanessa’s book for her in-laws’ 50th anniversary right now. They raised 5 boys in Chicago and clearly have an awesome sense of humor.
The book is a 50 years, 50 memories theme and I just had to share this memory from their niece. It totally cracks me up.
Ask Auntie El about the time she got pulled over while going the wrong way down a one-way street—purposefully. She was just trying to save a little time on her way to or from one of a million baseball, basketball, or football practices, with a station-wagon full of boys. When the police officer approached the vehicle, Auntie El got out, put her hands behind her back, and asked him to please put her in hand-cuffs, and to take her to jail! That he’d be doing her an enormous favor! He looked her over, checked out her “precious cargo” and sent her on her way apologetically.
I love this Auntie El.
