Very cute. It sounds like teenagers, and it was easy to follow who was speaking. Mothers do have a bad habit of saying something like his did and leaving him with no ideas.

thanks, Carol. Now the shoe is on the other foot for me. My daughter's coming in Sunday and I have no idea what she got for me. :)

This was a well presented story. The ending was totally a surprise. I thought you would have gotten the mom a box of candy but not ate the candy yourself. Did you think of going and replacing mom her box of candy?

nope, he wasn't very thoughtful. (or smart) and it was supposed to be a humorous ending. :)

This is very cute dialogue you have penned for the contest. It was probably expected that he would eat that candy. I wish I had some now too, but I am a mother! lol Best wishes in the contest. Teri

The dialogue reads naturally and I loved the punch line. Your story reminded me of when I was a kid and kept buying Mum a box of chocolates but had to buy several before the day arrived because I kept eating them myself.

If I was Ronald's mother, I'd remember his nothing gift when it was his birthday. If I'm not a mother then I don't have a son. (Lol) Actually, this is a funny story. Poor Ronald didn't know what to do, and ended up doing the wrong thing. Your picture is perfect for this dialogue. Best wishes in the contest.

This was a cute story told only in dialogue. I can relate to this, as my dad is very hard to shop for. Your ending was humorous. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.
