Remembering her I remember her at 50 I was but ten she waved a hand and delved into age gracefully slicing through air and parting waters easily, almost giddily high styled and highly smiled she magnifified the act of wrinkling admirably, carefully, sensuously, well. Now I’m this age, my granddaughter is ten this day… I look at pictures of forty years gone she still looks good, and while I'll never mirror her, I look better than then… perhaps her genes fit my soul they feel like it… and if I mature… when I grow old… I’ll borrow her style and class knowing it’s no act refining grace to polish fact that an art defined is a part re-mined through show and tell as she told me, very well… act the age within your heart and the fountain of youth will never depart. In honor of Grandmother Beth, 90 and full of wisdom... |

Amazing...amazing how when we can be an age and remember when our mother or grandmother was that age...and in our minds we really feel so young and realize that they too at that age must have felt young also. Somehow through that rambling I know you understood what I was trying to say...right? Hope so. This is wonderful Karilea...wonderful! ~Hugs~ |
