Love from Leo (Or is it Danny?)

[Note: This piece is written with the intent of being slightly sarcastic and humorous.]

As we all know, Sunday is Mother's Day (in America) and I happen to be a mother, so the timing is
The return address is from Leo
great! I usually expect my kids to do a little something, because I know they love me and they know I work hard to take care of them. What I do not usually except, though, is to receive Mother's Day cards in the mail.... from total strangers. 

The card says
"Uncle Danny"
At first, I was flattered. How sweet for someone to think of me! Then, I became slightly creeped out that someone, a total stranger, from another state no less, had my name and address. Maybe it was from a company I do business with. Nope. Maybe it was a long lost cousin. Nada. This card, which is written partly in text language (which I detest for the most part) came from some stranger. Thanks you Leo, or Danny, whomever you are, for thinking of me this Mother's Day. If you don't mind, though, I would rather reserve the holiday for those in my life I actually know- aka, my kids. 

Puzzled-
Mama Dragon
