The Grimm Way

In our first pastorate, one of the members of the congregation was named Mrs. Grimm.  I remember sitting with her on her porch swing one late fall day.  In the flower boxes on her porch were beautiful coleuses. 

Mrs. Grimm said to me, "I just wishing it would freeze and get it over with.  I'm tired of protecting those flowers."

I would have brought them indoors if they'd been mine but Mrs. Grimm told me that was too much bother.  She just wanted them to freeze and get it over with!  That is a Grim Way!
