A cup of tea


Here is a picture of my grand daughter Alyse. I recently received an email with a little story that made me think this could possibly be a note from Alyse in the future.

One day, my mother and dad were out and my Papa was in charge of me.

I was maybe 2 1/2 years old. Someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a gift and it was one of my favorite toys. Papa was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I brought him a little cup of 'tea', which was just water.

After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my mom and dad came home. My Papa made them wait in the living room to watch me bring him a cup of tea, because it was 'just the cutest thing!'

Mom waited and, sure enough, here I came down the hall with a cup of tea for Papa and she watched him drink it up.

Then she said (as only a mother would know), "'Did it ever occur to you that the only place she can reach to get water is the toilet?"


Did this make you smile?
Thanks D.J.
