![Happy Birthday! Oh Wait...]()
"My parents moved recently and while packing my neurotic, semi-hoarder of a mother was going through her "memory bins" [and found] this birthday card that I created for my dad when I was little. Apparently, I gave the card to my dad on his birthday when I was maybe five. The card is especially funny because as an adult I have not been close with my dad and that tension obviously started when I was young." -Amanda S.

![Everybody's Favorite Uncle]()
qchistoryteacher:My 4 yr old nephew deiced to make me a card for my b-day, but his adoration for his older cousin merited a shout-out for her on my card. Unfortunately for me, his spelling of Sarah bears a striking similarity to a lesser beloved cultural figure.

Sarah Gorman:My then-five-year-old son created a hilarious rendering of our three dogs.
#1 Dog is barking.
#2 Dog is farting (note dog's expression
and thought word which reads "ooups").
#3 Dog is chewing a kid's toy (with kid
saying "no!").
So, according to my son, all our dogs do is bark, fart, and chew things.

Errin G:Written several years ago by my little sister:
"Dear Tooth Fairy,
I am not very pleased that my tooth is still here after 5 days. Please take my tooth! I would really like it if I could get enough money to buy my hamster something. If you don't come tonight, I will stop believing in you when my teeth come out. In fact, I'm not too sure if you're real in the first place."
The picture is "the dead tooth lying under my pillow."
