"It's my passport picture," she revealed.
"Really?" I stared in complete amazement at my homebody grandma. "Where did you go?"
"Walgreens," she replied.

I am a 65 year old volunteer teacher's assistant at my church's daycare. On the end of the second week of the start of school, one nice 5 year old girl that I noticed was observing me for days finally approached me and said:

With shock and surprise in my voice, I said, "Oh my goodness, my grand daughter just turned 30!"
The 5 year old then said, "Wow, that is something! You and your grand daughter are the same age!"
