It was something she said

We were having a conversation while searching for the perfect rubber stamp. We intend making some invitations for a family reunion. We have a bag full of stamps that my cousin left with us, she said she never uses them now. Miss Boo loves to stamp so she was head down in the bag searching for the perfect one.

She made a pile of the ones she had shortlisted and began holding them up for me to look at

"Do we want these roses, Grandma?" she asked. I looked at the stamp and shook my head. "I don't think so, do you?" I replied

She examined the stamp, glanced up at me and as she put it back into the box she said

"No, they are more of a Sorry-I-Broke-your-legs sort of card aren't they?"
She might have said more but my shout of laughter stopped her short.

Sometimes she shows us exactly what her mother was like at that age and it is scarey!

None yet, she says. It's good to know she is prepared though eh?

I like that she is prepared for anything... But I think you should have shown us the stamp!
