Zoaring With Glinda

Partners in Crime

The first photo is from three years ago[2007] when Flo was in Green Acres Nursing Home[NJ] after her stroke. Mom and Grace were already acquainted from Flo's previous trips to my house[NY]. I brought Grace to the nursing home and she was a hit with many residents and brought big smiles.
The second photo on the right side shows a current[2010] typical morning. Look closely at the center of the picture where [sleeping]Mom's hand rests on [sleeping]Gracie's body. As soon as Grace detects a sound or motion from the other side of the room, she zooms from my bed to hers and licks her hand...occassionally her face, too. I yell out, "Grace, NO licking!!"
Then she will retreat to the bottom of the bed, and they both drift back to sleep for a bit...never out of touch, though.
Dressed and ready to roll...


The gladiola flower, peach colored and huge[!] on Mom's shoulder prompted today's photo. I called Grace to join the 'Kodak moment', and this is what I got.

What do you suppose Flo is whispering in her ear?
Grace never tells!!
