Inheritance

The other day Clara wanted to look at my jewelry.  Not that I have much jewelry.  When I was young my mother's jewelry box was like a treasure chest.  But, I do have a few things.

She came down a bit later, all decked out.

"Mom," she said, "I know you're going to say No if I ask if I can have this now.  So I'm wondering if maybe I could have this jewelry when you pass on?"

Ah, that's thinking ahead.
