This is back in the day when you adored the number seven, back when Maria was tiny.
The story goes, we were in the grocery store and you were standing in the back of the cart with Maria in the seat. You introduced her to the person in line behind us, "It's Maria. She's three and I'm seven."
The lady's eyes were big and she did a huge nod like, "Alrighty then."
Oh my goodness, you were always hilarious.
With love for always, Mom and Dad and Everybody
