Wistful Wednesday: 1920

This is a photo taken right around 1920. It is Far Guys Mom, Evelyn and her wild brother, Willard. She seems to have control of him in this photo. Recently he shared this story with me.

 " I was pretty spoiled, and I had a mind of my own. When I was supposed to come into the house when my Mother called for me, I would take off running into the fields. My Mother would send Evelyn after me, she would catch me and then sit on top of me and hold me down until my Mother got there, then I would get hauled off to the house, I got a whipping too..unless my Grandma Abbott was there, there wasn’t a person around that could lay a hand on me if she was around." :)

    Well at least he remembers his part in it. What a little stinker he was.

    Grandma said he used to crawl out the window of his room so he wouldn’t have to help!
