Congratulations, Mom, on your retirement! Even though you're just 30 minutes into the rest of your life, we would like to congratulate you for all your hard work and dedication throughout your career. Had you not taken four years off and dealt with the bureaucracy, you undoubtedly would not have had sons that turned out well enough to provide you with this spectacular anniversary gift.
This year's gift does more than just mark another anniversary - it is to thank you for 26 years of backbreaking labor that made your sons what they are today.
Thanks!
