Conversation with my 100 year old Great Grandma

I got to visit a little with my Great Grandma while at my great uncles funeral a few weekends ago. She just turned 100 on December 27th, 2008. My conversation with her was very sweet and oh so funny! She has no idea who I am, and that's fine. It was still enjoyable to talk with her. Our conversation was as follows:
Me: Hi Grandma! I'm Debbie
GGMA: Oh Hi (with a confused look on her face)
Me: I'm Jolene's Daughter
GGMA: Oh Jolene!!! I love Jolene (Jolene was sitting right next to her I think she forgot she was just talking with her)
Me: Smiling, aka holding back a laugh.
GGMA: You have such nice teeth
Me: Thank you
GGMA: Mine are false
Me: That's ok, Do you want to take a picture?
GGMA: (after the picture was taken) I hope my mouth wasn't opened.
Me: Don't worry about that. It was good to talk with you.

Me and Great Grandma!Poor grandma her mouth was opened. But that's ok she just looks like she was talking!

Hahaha that's funny that she told you that her teeth are false. What a hoot. One time she forgot Janiel's name...or maybe it was mine...I'm not sure. Anyway, she looked at me and giggled and said "I'm 99 years old. I can forget whatever I want to." And smiled and walked away. She's so funny!
