“I saw this cream on TV. Do you think I can get rid of my wrinkles?”
“At 93, probably not. You look really good for your age.”
“I used to be so pretty. I loved singing with the band. Then I had to give that up. I wondered why I ever made the decision to get married. My life was over. I was living upstairs from my in-laws, with you to take care of. It was the end of my career because I lost my voice while I was pregnant.”
“I’m sorry about that, Mom. I guess you’ve earned your wrinkles.”
A nice, warm, heartfelt story. Liked it a lot.
This made me heartsick. You’re so conciliatory and forgiving.
