Snow in Her Hair<br />
One day, a little girl is sitting<br />
and watching her mother do<br />
the dishes at the kitchen sink.<br />
She suddenly notices that her<br />
mother has several strands of<br />
white hair sticking out in<br />
contrast on her brunette head.<br />
She looks at her mother and<br />
inquisitively asks,<br />
"Why are some of your hairs<br />
white, Mom?" Her mother<br />
replied,<br />
"Well, every time that you do<br />
something wrong and make<br />
me cry or unhappy, one of my<br />
hairs turns white."<br />
The little girl thought about this<br />
revelation for a while, and then<br />
said,<br />
"So, Momma, how come ALL of<br />
grandma's hairs are white?"<br />
