Jo: What'd you get your mom?
Tisher: Oh, nothing.
Jo: What about a card?
Tisher: No. It'll warrant a call surely.
Jo: But your siblings got her something.
Tisher: (snorts) No. That's not something we do.
Jo:(genuinely surprised, not judgmental) Wow. We get my mom something every two months, there's always an email chain going about it. Did you get your mom something?
Me: No. I got her a card this year though, first time since I was 8. Figured it was time to start making the gesture. I don't really get it but for some people it means a lot. Giving/receiving cards.
Jo: Oh for sure. Love language.
