Old memories, brought on by a discussion elselist...

Mama and FatherSir had me in sturdy overalls, with the effect that they could very handily use the back as a handle.

Imagine the fury of a three-year-old attempting to rampage free and wild right in the way of father turning over the (at that point unfenced) garden, who is instead pinned in one place by the simple expedient of slipping the back of the overalls over one of the stakes laid out for the future fence. I think I'd been trying to run out into the road, as well as stomp on everything.

This sounds like our cats! Sammy (the monster in this icon) has always done that to every smaller cat that comes into the house. :D Much with the funny!

Add to that the fact that I am just under 5', and he is 5'6". I felt like I should have been wearing pigtails and Osh Kosh overalls!
