Maybe it is in their attitude or maybe their manner of disciplining children or what ever. Then many years later we do almost the same things. Let’s hope there is some improvement in our manner. In my parent’s old age, I felt that their social life was attending fu nerals and going to the doctor. It seemed as though that was all that they did in addition to going to church and visiting children. Now we must be careful that we do not fall into the same pattern. It seems that so many of our acquaintances have died in the last year or so. And, as we get older, doctors do find more problems. In regard to growing old, a friend of mine said that when she looks in the mirror in the morning, she says, “Hello Mother.” We do grow to resemble our parents for better or worse. But as long as Allen and I can maintain four big gardens, we don’t feel so very old. We’ve both been battling weeds in the asparagus and in the sweet corn. If I can get the 75-foot row of green beans picked, that he planted, I’m not sure if I will feel young or old. Last year we only had enough beans to eat and so this year should be more than enough to freeze. Many years ago, I canned beans but no longer do I boil them for three hours in a big blue canner. Some things do change for the better.
