Recently, we were amusing ourselves at the dinner table with what our business cards would say if each member of our family had one. It sure didn’t sound very impressive. So, we decided to ponder what our business cards could say, if we just reworded them. WOW! We sound like a very important and impressive bunch! We are submitting them to you with hopes of bringing a smile to your day.
What Brent’s business card could actually say…Unemployed, Goat Herder, Lawn Mower, Blacksmith, Weed Hoer and Toilet Repairman.
With just a few adjustments…Property Manager, Livestock Management, Landscape Maintenance, Welding Instructor, Alfalfa Farmer and Home Maintenance Supervisor…So much better!
If the truth be told, Tamy’s business card would actually say…Child Traffic Cop and Tired Homeschool Mama, Album Keeper and Blog Keeper.
Reworded…Child Development and Family Education Specialist, Family Historian and Photo Procurement Specialist, and Information Specialist… A “specialist,” who would have thought?!!
What Hattie’s business card might say…Cat Collector, Cow Feeder, Babysitter, and Bowling Fanatic.
But what if it said… Head of Feline Breeding Management, Elliott Livestock CEO, Head of Preschool, and Head of Extracurricular Sports…Much more impressive, don’t you think?!!
Lillie’s business card wouldn’t sound like much if it said…Calf Bottle Feeder, Bottom Wiper, Crayon Manager, Sugar and “Everything Bad for You” Junky, and Tormentor/Antagonist of Siblings.
With just a bit of “tweaking”…Head of Bovine Reproductive Growth, Assistant Potty Training Specialist, Children’s Art Director, Confections Specialist, and Character Building Specialist. WOW!
Dennah’s business card would read…Goat Milker, Bottom Washer, and Kitchen Slave.
Now with a little creativity…Herdsmen and Lactation Specialist, Assistant Potty Training Specialist, and Nutritionist & Health Maintenance Specialist…Another family “specialist”!
When Susanna was here, her business card could have been…Cat Petter, Sibling Tormentor/Antagonist, and Trampoline Jumper & Bike Rider.
But with a few word changes…Feline Behavioralist, Head Character Building Specialist, and Self Activities Director…How fun!
As for Becker, his business card could say…Floor Sweeper and Trash Guy, Goat Feeder, and Fire Wood Hauler.
He sounds like a busy and important guy with…Sanitation Engineer, Head of Caprine Nutrition Department, and Head of Home Energy Division.
Parker’s business card at first could read…Baby Watcher & Friend, Smiley Guy, Fire Wood Hauler, and Highly Active Boy.
Now with a few changes…Assistant Child Care Manager, Ambassador of Goodwill to Neighborhood, Assistant to Head of Home Energy Division, and Head of Energy Consumption. Just delightful!
Even the triplet’s received family business cards…
Clay, our “Get Up at Night & Wander Around the House Boy” is now officially considered a “Nighttime Security Guard”.
Emma Belle, our “Bossy, Know-it-all, Talkative Girl” is really our “Head of Information Dissemination”.
Camie Jane, our “Baby and Doll Holder” is happy to be an “Infant Care and Management Trainee”.
There you have it…the new and improved “business cards” for the Elliott family!!
