mamas green jello

When mama made her famous green Jello dessert We knew something big was about to happen to our family. Sometimes it was company like Great-Grandma’s sister, Gert. Other times it meant we were getting another baby. Tonight we walked in and saw it and I saw Daddy look tough. He probably is tired of children, sixteen is probably enough. It’s not Gert again, is it? He asked with a weary long sigh. Mama shook her head no and said “It’s your uncle Cy.”
