A Day With My Parents

Yesterday, Sunday, I rode with my parents to Arkansas to visit my Aunt Edith in a nursing home. We met my sister Donna in Idabel, OK, then the four of us drove the remaining 40 miles or so to De Queen. I went into the room first to see if she'd recognize me. She didn't and I hardly recognized her. I'd never seen her with gray hair and she'd never seen me as a blond. It was a fun visit and we all enjoyed it, even though Edith had an upset stomach and stayed in bed the whole time. It was especially special for Donna and I to have our parents to ourselves for the day.
