The Dish Water Test

I am so grateful to be in a new and big kitchen, that I keep envisioning Mu in her kitchen at 106. I don't have to do dishes now because I have a dishwasher, but in the old days Mu used to wash the dishes for the many, many people that went through 106 in one big sink. (You guys know how I hate the dishes)

Legend has it that when Margaret was dropped off, she was 8 months old and she had no strength in her back and that Mu cured her by sitting her in the dishwater.
I think Mu didn't have any other way of holding her up and that was their private time with eachother and that she was just as shocked when Margaret started sitting up herself as everybody. God works miracles with love and the dirty water test has come to signify the healing and loving things that we mommies do that although they are unorthodox and smelly and messy, God works His miracles through them. I hope Margaret is not embarrassed by this family secret being revealed..:)
