“How many horses?”

(Heather (speaking calmly and strongly):  The horses are all in the barn. There is no need for us to worry.)

“Are their heads sticking out?”

(Heather (speaking calmly and strongly):  Yes, Mother. There is no need for us to worry.)

“I just want to see the boys.”

(Heather:  What boys?)

“Do they go by here?  No, I’m the mother of a boy and I want  her boys to stand right up there, so they will know you have a boy.”

(Heather:  Mother, did you cry all your life?)

“I’ve cried my heart out since I was 90.  I didn’t cry at all.  I’m crying now because everything is upside down.  I don’t think things are going right for me.  Wait a minute and maybe we will see.  When…I don’t think its going right.  Maybe it is.”
