A Full Morning

My little brother was about three years old. At that time there were only five of us and he was the youngest.

My brother lived a pretty good life. The rest of us were in school so he had Mom all to himself.

After we ate breakfast  the rest of us were off to school. Then my brother's adventures started.

First Mom would give him a penny. As Mom watched he went down the street and turned the corner. That was when Mrs. Bull took over. 

Mr. and Mrs. Bull owned a small grocery store. And they had the best assortment of penny candy.

Mrs Bull watched my brother from the corner to the store. He would go in and choose his penny candy for the day. 

After he paid for it Mrs Bull watched him walk to the corner and turn onto our street. Mom was waiting and watched hum come down the street.

It was time for Captain Kangaroo. After that was Ding Dong School.

One morning just as it was time for Captain Kangaroo to start he suddenly jumped up. He yelled, "Quick! Turn it off!  I have to go to the bathroom and I don't want to miss any of it."

It was a good life.
