A Wake-Up Call


I peeled my tongue from the roof of my mouth and tried to swallow that bitter "morning after” taste.  Prying one eye open…I came face to face with the reality that I was sleeping with seventy-year-old grandmother.
The question was; “How did this happen?”
Yesterday, it seems, I crawled into bed with this hot college co-ed.



But that was nearly fifty years ago and I’m still seeing the same smiling face.
The reality is…I had the good fortune of sharing a bed with this "Hottie" for nearly half a century.  Certainly this is Divine Providence…because there is no way that Miss Mary could have put up with me without God's help.  Happy Birthday…Miss Mary.  Thanks for being such a wonderful wife, loving mother and fantastic grandmother. May God bless you on this day...your birthday...your 70th birthday…and everyday here after. 


Thank you, Lord Jesus, for this undeserved gift that has blessed me in more ways than I can count.   
Amen.
