The Captain Underpants Years

Letters From the Authorities

During this time when M2 was reading Captain Underpants, I came home one day and found these, two days in a week. Needless to say, M2 and I had a talk about it and since then, no more letters came my way…

Following that, during one of my routine calls home to check on them, I was greeted with a deep voice attempt: “Mabel’s Residence”. Muffling a chortle, I played along and asked for M2 then queried the voice if she was M2. But no…. the voice said she was Janice, M2’s assistant and I was put on hold before M2 came to the phone! We then had a normal conversation.

It’s so hilarious. I don’t think I even dared to try this on my parents back then, let alone think about something like this! My creative child makes me so proud! In this era, I guess one must be open-minded and understanding to be cool parents, or we end up mirroring our own strict parents.

    Not surprising. … I would be creative too if my mom called me by Code, M1 and M2
    Sounds like some fellow agent of 007?
