Last week in the midst of all this "lice-ness" I was talking to my sister Jenny. She's been through this experience a LOT. When I complained to her that Stevie had it, SHE kept saying..."This is good".
(it's a line from a story my dad likes to share, I'll have to share it with YOU one of these days)
I asked her..."Jen, how can THIS be good? What GOOD can come out of this?" She thought for a moment and replied..."Well, maybe some day I'll be able to help somebody else out. You see...I'm a professional nit picker. I know what to look for." Well...guess what? That "somebody" ended up being me. (who knew???)
Thank you Jenny!
(and now my head is RID...rid of those nits)
Yup! Your sister is a professional nit picker--way to go, Jen. Hope you can take a rest from that job for awhile. Great to see you Becky. Take it easy, though. I know it's hard, but necessary!!
ReplyDeleteOkay with all the lice finally evacuating from Jenny's spreading to your house and who else knows where...I don't know if I want her here this next week...No I'll take her...but if one of us gets lice I will know who to blame!
ReplyDeleteShe does a fab sideways hug under certain conditions ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou know you have a kindred sister when she'll pick your nits :)
ReplyDeleteHope you found some good books to read while your RID-ing!
LOVE YOU!!!
