108 ~ Not Necessarily & Little Momma

By Kay Heitsch

Edith*, a feisty lady, liked to walk around with "L" and me. Edith's husband had died several years before, but she didn't seem to remember that.
One day, as we were walking, Edith asked if I would keep an eye open for her husband's room. I said, "Edith, don't you think if your husband were here, he would be living in your room with you?" Her response caught me off guard when she said, "Not necessarily, we didn't get along that well!"
As "L" and I walked by a table where a few residents were sitting, Howard* called me over. With the sweetest smile on his face, he pointed to Lilly* sitting at the table with him. "Ain't 'Little Momma' cute? Just look at her blue eyes."
Little Momma was a tiny 90+ year-old resident whom several of the male residents seemed to have a crush on.
I agreed that 'Little Momma' was adorable with her blue eyes. I thought that was the end of the matter when Howard noticed something else about 'Little Momma'. After studying her a little longer, Howard announced, "I think those are her own teeth, too."
I'm so thankful God brought humor into my day. I needed it.

Remember how I led you on this long journey. Deuteronomy 8:2
