Two delicate blossoms of Southern femininity, one from Mississippi and the other from Texas, were conversing on the porch swing of a large white-pillared mansion. The Mississippian said, "When my first child was born, my husband built this beautiful mansion for me."
The Texan lady commented, "Well, isn't that nice?"
The lady from Mississippi continued, "When my second child was born, my husband bought me that fine Cadillac automobile you see parked in the drive."
Again, the Texas lady commented, "Well, isn't that nice?"
The first woman boasted, "Then when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet."
Yet again, the Texas lady commented, "Well, isn't that nice?"
The first woman then asked her companion, "What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?"
The Texas lady replied, "My husband sent me to charm school."
"Charm school!" the first woman cried. "Land sakes, child, what on Earth for?"
The Texas lady responded, "So that instead of saying, 'Who gives a crap', I learned to say, 'Well, isn't that nice?'"
Hey there Candace! You pickin on us families that still have kin in Mississippi?

That is very funny. I read it once and shrugged and then went back and then the tears started to flow

Hi Candy, Thanks for sharing another fantastic joke. I'll have to share this with a friend, that will probably respond, Well, isn't that nice?

Since my wife is from the South I have heard this joke, but with a slightly less charming punch line. 🤣

My cousin in Tennessee will say "bless her heart". I wasn't familiar with it but now I know what it entails, haha.

Love this one, Candy. Or as we say here in the South "bless your heart." (And it's not meant as a compliment when that's said.)
