The Buckets by Greg Cravens for October 23, 2011
Transcript:
Eddie, chew with your mouth closed. Or what? Or I'll have to eat in the tool shed? Or... I don't get dinners anymore? Mocked in town square? Or... I go to an orphanage? Bamboo cage in the backyard? Given to the zoo? Reform school? Or...? Or...? Gah, I got nothin' prepared. Firm but fair... Let's see... Um... I'm sorry. That came out sounding rude. Whew. Don't let it become a habit.

Mom was the deliver of the lines â âOnly cows eat with their mouths openâ There was also no singing at the table, but dad & I would sneak it in at least once or twice a week. .Like where Eddies âor elseâ thoughts wandered .

My little (adopted) sister claimed that it was physically impossible to chew with her mouth closed. Mealtimes during my teenage years were a nightmare.

I donât enjoy it when my kids catch me flatfooted like this. The whole âFirm But Fairâ thing doesnât come naturally to me. Firm, okay, but Fair? Arm wrestling to see whoâs right isnât FAIR, but itâs still and option, right? I still feel more like the kids than a parent. Dunno how I got to be the age I am without growing up any more than I have.

You are not old until you are the parent of a great grandparent â from my husbandâs grandmother, who has accepted the fact that she is getting up there :-)
