Just a Little Bit Old

The other day Anna and I were looking at something (I don't remember what) and I told her it was my grandmother's.  She asked me where my grandmother was and I told her that she had died a number of years ago.  Anna sucked in her breath and said increduously "She DIED??????  Why did she die?".  Without getting into the ins and outs with her I just told her that my grandmother had gotten old and that when people get older things are more likely to happen to them and they die.  Anna thought about this a minute and said "was she really, really, really old?".  I told her that she was.  Anna then asked "are you really, really, really old?".  I assured her that I was NOT really, really, really old.  After a few seconds Anna agreed with me and said "Yah, you're just a little bit old Mama". 

Yup, that's me.  Just a little bit old.
