Top OF the House

I have not posted for a while so I decided to sit down and work today. I was remembering mother and what a good mother she was. I remember her telling me about a time when she and Dorie were about twelve. They had been bedeviling Mammaw all day. Mammaw told them "I am going to tell your Daddy that you have been bad when he gets home." This was the worse thing that you could do because Pappaw was the displicinarian while Mammaw was the director. The twins decided to climb on top of the house to get away from Mammaw. This scared Mammaw to death. She begged them to come down. They agreed if she would promise not to tell Pappaw. Of course Mammaw told on them so they got it all the more for scaring Mammaw. I find this story very funny because if I had climbed on top of our two story house my mother would have climbed up after me and beat me all the way down. She never told us to wait until daddy got. She took care of it herself. Funny how things change.
