I would've thought she would've stomped her foot, too
Eva is a fun, fiesty, super-duper tiny 106-year-old woman. When she was at the home 3 years ago for rehab, she insisted she had to get out of there as soon as possible because the old lady next door (who was 88) needed someone to look after her. She came back to the home 8 months or so ago to stay, and has been zooming around ever since.
Until Tuesday apparently. Tuesday they didn't expect her to make it through the night, and had her daughter fly in from California.
Wednesday, she was fine. She had her daughter and two friends as guests for lunch, and was her usual cute self. After lunch her daughter asked her if she wanted to go play a game or if she wanted to take a nap (she had almost died the day before after all). "Take a nap?! I'm not going to take a nap! Not while you're all here! I want to play a game. I am not taking a nap. You're not getting rid of me that easily!"

i love her!
106?! Wow! Good for her! :) I imagined her daughter as being young, but if her mom's 106, she probably isn't! ;) What a good story. :)
i know - mel and i were talking about that yesterday, that the daughter's got to be around 80. she was probably the one wanting the nap.
haha, probably :)
