I have to say grandmas are not all the same. They can laugh at this one all they want. But they cannot come here yet. I am still contagious. Frowny face.

I'm at the age that I wish they wouldn't even get near me. I have my teeth , but am not able to smile. :( So I'm asked why don't you smile? I answer, I am.

I have lost so many teeth, I have adjusted my smile so people do not see how many are missing.

People are inconsistent. They are afraid of posthumous emptiness and are not afraid of the same emptiness that was before birth) Nicely done, Caren.

This poem is Special Caren. So true and taxing when one finds oneself getting older and all that comes with it! Excellent! : ) xxoo

Thank you Connie. It is amazing how fast we can accidentally hurt an older person's feelings with laughter, whereas the baby readily laughs with us, happy that we are happy.
