Although I am in a somewhat open competition with my nephew regarding who is the heighest, I am rather forced to collect my victories from interracting with others, as well. Okay, I admitted last year that my nephew had outgrown me, but that happened a year ago. People get busy, they forget, and we can play with that.
Today my next-door neighbor stopped me to
ask if I'd been looking for him. That someone had told him a tall, young lady
from next door had been looking for him. I grinned with delight, told him that
I hadn't been looking for him, but that I was glad he found me tall, and
curtsied.
The man looked at me for a moment in
amazement, but said nothing. Then it dawned on me that (impressively!) not
everyone is aware of my youth and height. And maybe they should be!
