Your charming retrospective of childhood chores and parents is sweetly drawn. Reminds me how decades later, my younger brother is still angry with me because of his perception that I shirked out of my share of washing and wiping dishes. Maybe I did!
Lovely images of washing out plastic bags and getting wet plus your father catching you by the ankle. Thank goodness we haven't come up with robots or apps that will catch a child's ankle on the stairs and return the errant lass to duty. Thanks for a fun post! Jim
