Well, this is certainly a "flash" fiction story. Intentional? Reminds me strongly of that comedic song where Ethel ran amok. Do you recall the name of that ditty?

Thanks Tom for this great review and the special 6th star. I was thinking of the very song, "The Streak" by Ray Stevens when writing this flash fiction story. A fun and funny ditty.
Thanks again Tom,
Blessings

Yep. That's it. Boy, did I enjoy fishing the Susquehanna for smallies, near Duncannon.

Lol! Reminds me of my grandson after a bath. He's only a 1 1/2 but he's fast and I'm a bit slow on the capture with his PJ's. A delightful story and best of luck with the contest.

Thank you for your encouraging review. This was my first Flash Fiction story and I thoroughly enjoyed the challenge.
1 1/2 year olds can be fast and love to run around without their clothes. :)))

Comment from Debbie Pope
What a fun one! I can actually see this happening, especially with Mrs. Higgins shrieking like that. In small towns, a shriek alone could bring the cops.
Your cute story meets all the requirements of flash fiction. You have plot, characterization, setting, and a nice ending. Good luck in the competition.

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This is an interesting flash fiction, this tells how sometime we make mistakes, and doubts of happening of something and get scared at illusion; well said, well done.

Comment from Susan Larson
This is really funny. I could actually see one of my boys or one of my grandsons trying to do that. You have a really cute ending to a cute story. I wonder, was this maybe inspired by a real life incident?

Actually, I have a picture of two of my grandsons when they were 4 and 6 with their pants down around their ankles watering the lawn. They loved to run naked but usually in the house after their bath.

Comment from Shirley McLain
Nothing like the freedom of a naked child. They run as if they have been in solitary confinement. My kids, as well as my Grandchildren, have had that run. Good luck in the contest. Shirley

Comment from tfawcus
That such innocence should cause such consternation! The twist in your ending is unexpected and raises a laugh, whether of relief or at the absurdity, I'm not sure. Children, in their naivety, can be such a delight.

Comment from BethShelby
I got a good laugh out of this one. I think it was so funny because it reminds me of my grandson when he was about four. I hated babysitting because if he had no clothes on he always ran outside.
