I usually advise against using the kids as an 'excuse' to get in touch with the W. I wouldn't do it. I know, I know. This makes it look like you cannot text W at all...not the case. It is all about context and timing.
And how long ago was that particular text to W anyway?
As for me, my plans to text Ms. Wonka a happy 4th is good because the timing is good and context is appropriate. Make sense? I plan to do this on the night of July 3rd. See what I mean about timing?
