| My mother did not go out and play games with me or tell funny stories,
but she laughed at a funny story. She could see humor in things
that I said and did. She could also wrap me up along side the head if the
occasion called for it.
I could also see humor in many things she did.
For Example:
Late in my mothers life she had eye surgery for cateracts. As a result,
she had some glasses she was supposed to wear for a number of weeks aftyer
surgery.
She hated to wear them and one day we asked her if she had been wearing
her glasses. She said "Yes, every afternoon - when I take my nap!"
Actually it was my sister Blanche who kept bugging her to wear the glasses
and she was getting sick of hearing about it.
