Show Thursday, June 30, 1983 THE HERALD, Provo, Utah, Page 27 Erma Bombeck Toast the 'No-Reunio- n' I just got a letter from a woman who, for the past four summers, has stuffed her family into a car and driven from New York to Provo, Ut., to join the rest of the family at a reunion at a total cost to her of $8,000. To do this, she said, "We eat beans three times a week, drive an old rusted-ou- t car for years and years, and are still eating on folding chairs in our dining room."

I guess I'm really sensitive about this because my husband and I were childless for the first six years after we were married. Contain yourself. You know what's coming. Everv holiday, we picked up our presents, food (and whatever spirit we had left after loading up the car) and went to where children were because "children like to spend Christmas at home." Baloney. Dangle a gift in front of a kid and he'll spend Christmas in a public bus station. We got sick of having our Christmas tree seen only by the washer repairman and vowed when we had children it would be different. It was.
