That's family!

This morning I was talking to my big sister Coby in Holland. She will be 80 this spring going on 30. She is so funny, that is where Yvonne get's it from I am sure!
Sis lives in an Older people establishment. Her husband past away barely a year ago, but that does not stop her from being funny.

She told me, she was in the lounge talking with some other residents, when one lady commented, how come there are only women here. The men are all dead. To which Sis replied, I know why, all eyes on her!!! God needs the men to get heaven ready for us. Well, said one lady, never heard that before!

She is always looking at the bright side. When her husband had passed away after a long sickness, friends remarked, so sad, now you are alone, to which she replied, I have had a wonderful life, God has been good to me. He will continue to look after me.

Now that does not meen she does not miss her husband, but she does find a way to be positive and a blessing to others. She certainly has been a source of encouragement to me. I love her for that.

Love Trudy, yep that's me
