Prayer
While I was in line at the grocery store I overheard an elderly mother and her 50-something daughter arguing whether or not Queen Latifah was a character played by Eddie Murphy. Aside from the pure hilariousness of that claim their conversation was extremely deflating because once I realized it was the daughter who made the ridiculous claims I saw a scenario I wasn’t ready for.
Please Lord; please let me grow up to be the grumpy and loony old woman that I am working so hard to become. Please don’t rob me of my right to be a ridiculous and impractical granny. If my daughters turn out to be more insane than me (heaven help us) or beat me to insanity… oh Lord… I can’t even bring myself to think about it.
Amen.
