The Right of Rae

"You Rae's are always right."

Those are the words that I have so often heard from friends. I guess they've accepted the fact and put the argument to rest because it does little good to do otherwise.

Yes, us Rae's can be a little testy when someone questions our rational interpretation of nearly every subject. It isn't that we have opinions, it's more like we know best and our statements are filled with assertion.

And yet we're willing to hear what others say and concede to the wiser, which further proves that we are once again always right by doing so! And how did we achieve this righteous attitude? For sure, Dad was stubborn but Mom had a full grip on what's right and wrong. It's a genetic inheritance, so it's actually the Noxon's who are always right.

You could also justly say that "The Kramer's are never wrong" as sister Sue merried into Mike's family. Very honorable, but watch out, the Noxon-Rae's dare anyone to challenge our righteousness.

The Noxon-Rae-Kramer combination puts my neice Heather above the rest of everybody else in our family! She and Phil are soon to become husband and wife on Valentines' Day 2009. They are too alike, complaining in unison about the same things! Good, well-educated young adults, no doubt set to have a life together in wholly matrimony.

And then there's the Noxon-Rae-Roach combination that just might give my neice Taylor an edge above everyone else! Sister Sally married and put up with Mr. Roach just long enough to give birth to quite a remarkable girl. As she is now 16 years old, she has grown out of her childhood shyness and now converses with exquisite charm and respect.

As the years pass and the family tree grows, just imagine that the Rae lineage shall inherit the Earth and dominate the far reaches of the planet!

And don't you tell dare me I'm wrong - I'm always right!
