Mama will be 94 in a few weeks. She is still living at home and taking care of herself. She tends to forget things, and get confused, but otherwise generally healthy.
I have always been her “Little girl.” She tried to raise me to be just like my older sister, but I was always on the sissy side while Sally was bold and confident. We always have a laugh when we remember our first shopping trip for boy clothes before I started school. Those funny briefs with the fly were just hillarious! Boy-panties we called them!
Mama has always been a rock, she taught us life lessons about cooking, sewing, changing flat tires, running the farm. And boys!
Later Sally taught me more intimate things about boys and how to keep them happy.
