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 />
