I absolutely loved this story. It was funny and refreshing. I love the photo of them. You seemed to be a wonderful older sister and I'm sure you still are. It was simply enjoyable. Thank you for sharing.

I enjoyed your memoir and believe you had followed the rules of the prompt, writing about a sibling who wisely escaped working in the fields. I wish you the best in the contest.

Comment from Wayne Fowler
Very nice story. Well told.
dress her myself than drag her - 'then' drag her
which is Five in Spanish. - this five doesn't get captitalized
An aside -- You don't need to be quick to teach math or algebra :-)
Best wishes.

Hello Prettybluebirds a good day to you, I hope this finds you well. I enjoyed your Fiction with some truth, it was a good enjoyable read, I loved this line:
"It takes Beverly forever and five minutes longer to do anything. She is slower than molasses in January"............reminds me of my daugher....lol
good job and good luck!

Thank you and thanks for the six stars. Yeah, Beverly is almost genius smart. I think the pokey was part of her way of outsmarting all of us. Hugs

Comment from Wendy G
I enjoyed your story a lot. It was interesting, honest, and well-written with touches of humour. Yes, she was obviously quite smart, and knew how to get out of the hard work, but still get school clothes. Lol. Best wishes for your entry in the contest.

Comment from juliet p rucker
I'd swear we had the same little slow moving sister. Only my sister, Andi and I grew up in Washington state, picked strawberries that summer and I always ended up having to rinse and dry the rest of the dishes after I had washed them too quickly for her to dry. Of course, we had to finish before we could go outside and play.

Thank you. Boy, your dish washing story sounds like ours. Beverly was suppoesd to dry the dishes and she always claimed she had to go to the bathroom which was outside. By the time she got back I had the dishes all done, of course. Hugs.

This is a well written story about you and your family, prettybluebirds. It seems you have many things to remember from those days of getting to school and picking cherries. Well written. Good luck in the contest.
