My mom (RIP) talks about the time her mom told the four girls to get ready while she got a switch from the lilac bush. Her mom walks in, switch in hand, confronted by bent-over bare bums ranging in age from 7 to 14. My mom recalls her breaking down in laughter on the floor!

I would run around the house to try to get away from my spankings. Running through the kitchen once I grabbed a flat tin pot cover and got it shoved into my pants. I’m guessing I was five or six.

Visiting my mom before she died we were going over some of our antics as kids. She didn’t recall that one with the lid - but she did say “Well, I remember spanking you one time and my hand REALLY hurt! Maybe that was it!”

(And no - I didn’t tell my mom a week before she died ALL of the stories!). Sorry mom. I suppose you know them now! Thanks for a great life.

I have a photo of me strapping a flag pole with an American flag on top of a 60-foot pine tree that was in our backyard. I was probably 14 at the time. And my MOM was taking the picture! What sort of mom lets their kids DO stuff like that!!??

Yeah, a bare hand on butt-filled blue jeans hurts like hell.
