Meep, the nuns used to give them you when you were good, they usually had a picture of a saint and sometimes your teacher would write a nice note/message on the back.

Donna! I just took you off ignore for a sec


 


Thanks, I love things like that in the opening post.


 


Hey I had this teacher give me a Holy card once and I've still got it. The remark on the back was a dig at me it said:


 


"Under all the fake, overloaded, glittering masquerade, there is in every man a noble nature beneath"


 


 


 


I was not overloaded!!
