with Uncle Peter and they'd talk about her parents.
Once, she talked about the time when she was a
little girl and her dad was selling his coconuts and
she was always running around finding fun things
to do that would eventually get her in some sort of
trouble. For instance, that time she mistakenly
released the brakes on her dad’s truck while he was
selling his coconuts out on the back and it started
rolling forward, while his huge, juicy coconuts were
slowly falling out the back. While this was
happening, customers were picking them up and
giving them back to him, hoping that he would
reward them with a few. Of course, uncle Peter
remembered when she had gotten into all that
trouble with her father, and they both laughed at
the memory.
