Thanksgiving is that special time of year when we indulge in delicious feasts and dodge family drama. This year, one grandma has unwittingly become a social media star after sending a text about her Thanksgiving plans to a complete stranger.
Meet Marcus, a 17-year-old from Phoenix, Arizona, who recently received an unexpected message detailing a family gathering for the holiday. The catch? The text wasn’t meant for him. Curious and amused, Marcus asked the sender for a picture to confirm their identity. What happened next was pure comedic gold.
The grandma in question clearly has a flair for texting, utilizing emojis like a pro. Her cheeky response—“Your grandma”—set the tone for a delightful exchange. Marcus, initially confused, sent back a selfie to clarify that they weren’t related. But instead of leaving it at that, he decided to follow up on those Thanksgiving plans.
Her reply was heartwarming: “Of course you can,” she texted. “That’s what grandmas do.” Isn’t that just the sweetest? This gesture embodies the true spirit of Thanksgiving—coming together and celebrating what we cherish most. As Marcus put it, “If I was invited to their Thanksgiving for real, yes, I would go. I would consider us as friends!”
This charming interaction quickly spread across Twitter, earning the grandma a wave of affection from users who found her inviting nature irresistible. It’s not every day that a mistaken text leads to new friendships and holiday invites, right?
