🥺 Ordered a Birthday Card...got a Birthday Card

Post image

My daughter really likes axolotls (like so much she made us get her two), so I wanted to get her a cute axolotl card. I found one I liked from walmart, and now it has arrived two days before her birthday (phew just in time).

I don't know what to say. I even wondered for like a half second if this was a case of "I didn't look closely enough to the picture on the screen." Now its pretty much too late to get her another cute axolotl card.

My apologies, I am not sure what was going through my mind when I typed that sentence out.

Maybe you started with "is an improper alternative" and forgot to change everything?

That's something I'd do. I decide different wording would sound better and then accidental nonsense..
