Betty was soon to be married. More than anything, she wanted to wear the
wedding dress her mother was married in. Betty’s mother was beaming with
pride as she gave her consent.
Later in the evening, the family gathered in the living room to wait while
Betty tried on the dress.
When Betty entered the room, there was a chorus of approval. The dress fit
perfectly and looked wonderful on her. But tears ran down the face of
Betty’s mother.
Seeing this, Betty said, “Don’t worry Mom, you’re not losing a daughter,
your gaining a son.”
“Forget about that!” she said with a sob. “I used to fit into that dress!”
