GIVING THANKS

My Grandmother Bouterse,the one you've heard me speak about so much, was truloy the love of my life growing up. In myeyes,she was an oldish sort of lady;not skinny, but not fat either, with grey hair, and that blueish tint that so many older ladies have, She had lots of wrinkles, and those brown age spots all over her. She took her teeth out at night and placed them in a jar by the bed,to soak over night. When she talked, she would make a clicking sound. She loved to sing; She loved Jesus, as I'm sure you have figured out by now. She took Digitalis for her high blood pressure, and wore those fat heeled black shoes, and she always wore a dress.She smiled all the time, and I thought she was terrably old.....maybe about a hundred!
In actuality, she was my age today.....61!
In actuality,God gave me the grandmother He knew would provide the absolute perfect scripture growth for the little Becky I was, and the grown up Becky I was to become.
Whether old or young,He's always right on target!
Becky
