I
was at the eye specialist this morning and as I was sitting in the waiting
room; across from me were this little old lady and her daughter. The older lady said to her daughter “how much
longer, we've been here for hours?” The
daughter replied, “We just got here and the doctor will see you when he is
ready.” The older lady replied “when
will that be we've been waiting for hours.”
Much
of their conversation continued on like that where the older lady kept asking
similar questions like a two year old for the next five minutes. I couldn't help but laugh as a tear streamed
down my face realizing I was jealous of those two. As my name was called, I got up and smiled at
them both and then looked the daughter in the eyes and said, “Your Mother is
quite the gift, enjoy her.”
As
I walked away, the older lady said to her daughter “You hear that, I am a gift
now maybe you’ll answer my damn question and tell me how much longer?”
