 My cousin is in town from Texas this week. Since I'm not working, I've been able to spend the days with her. Today, we both went to our grandparents house for lunch. When I got there, my cousin answered the door. She said my grandparents were in the back fixing my grandpa's hair. I thought maybe he needed a quick trim or something...Nope. She was combing his hair. Apparently she combs his hair everyday. My cousin's response..."Y'all are funny." I believe that was the understatement of the day.
Now when my Nana was alive, she did an awful lot for my grandpa...so much in fact that the family really had to step up when she died. She cooked his meals, laid out his medications, ironed and set out his clothes, etc. But she NEVER combed his hair if she wasn't cutting it. Nope, I'm pretty sure she would have informed him that he had 2 perfectly good hands.
Papa and my stepgrandma (who I love) are hilarious though. They dress alike. She clips his fingernails (something else I learned today). They go everywhere together, and sometimes that is just awkward (like when he is the only man at a baby shower). They are good for each other...and great for me when I need a laugh! Labels: Family |
This is too funny. I'll bet it is awkward for him to be the only man at the baby shower.
