Two Generations Of Hands

 

This photo was taken about eight years ago.  The top hand is my mother's, the bottom one is mine. She is 25 years older than me.

I noticed three things in this photo.

1.  I think I like an oval-shaped nail better than my lifelong square nails.

2.  This was before my pinky and ring finger got all jacked up with arthritis.  My fingers started to noticeably change after I turned fifty.

3.  I have an idea of what my 75-year-old hands might look like.

And at 82, my mother's hands are still working so that's a good thing, too.
