A giraffe in the house is not a good thing -- even a four-year old knows that! With five children, there are already enough animals in residence. I had only one sibling and he was plenty to put up with. I can't imagine living with four. Amazing how you all stayed ( reasonably ) sane. Funny story, Sharon. Thanks for returning us to our childhoods. I am enjoying your work.
Brilliant! I love your stories, Sharon. 😊 So glad that Sharron Bassano sent me your way!
Thank you, Rebecca! I’m happy that you enjoy my stories!
Such a good piece! I only had two and went crazy, so I admire those mothers with three or more, for sure!
Thank you, Linda! Yes. My poor mom! She was pretty sharp, though. Taught me a few "tricks of the trade." LOL

"For many years, I would answer to “Sue-Sonnie-Skip-Steve-Goddammit, Sharon!” - Ha! LOL. Good one, Sharon!
Thanks, James! Sometimes she would throw the dog's name in there, too.
