Chips for Daddy π
This poignant one showed up in memories today.
14 years ago, for some reason Jess and I got on the topic of death when she asked if I had a Daddy. Sadly I had to tell her I did but he died so he wouldn't be able to come over today.
"Why aren't my great grandma and grandpa alive?" That is how it works... "I just don't know why they didn't wait for me."
She returned to that theme often. She really wanted all her family to have waited to meet her.
Later, at the grocery store check out, she had this to say, to the cashier, "We got these chips for my daddy. He's not dead yet so we bought him these."
OMG even now it brings tears of laughter.
