It was May 11th, 1916, I just finished gathering up some wood for mama, papa passed away two years ago, so I moved back in with her to help out with what papa used to do. My mama, Eloise, is stubborn woman, she put up a fight about me moving in, she refused to be babied, I had to practically beg. I'm the youngest out of my brothers and sisters, so I basically got the short straw, not that I'm complaining I love my mama, and I really love her pot roast. She's the strongest damn woman I know, she has to be, to be able to keep up with her children, especially me.
Growing up I was always the one sneaking cookies out of the cookie jar, playing pranks inside and outside of the house, at school I was no better; getting caught under the bleachers looking under girls skirts, not doing my homework, I got hit with the paddle so much by principal gables, but I learned my lesson. Yea I learned that I needed to wear more than one pair of underwear, my thermal pants, and my jeans to endure another hit.
When I hit high school all hell broke lose, I was introduced to my friend Jack Daniels. I lost my virginity to the lovely Miss Mayes, sophomore year. After that girls lost their virginity to me. I was always the ladies man, I didn't care about sports or learnin', I went to school for one thing, women. And they sure did love me right back.
After high school I moved in with my brother Chris and his wife Judith. I have a big family, lots of nieces and nephews too, I worked with pop out in the woods, we were hunters and lumberjacks. We would go out and do a fulls day work, and come back home and my mama or my sister would have a big pitcher of lemonade waitin' for us. I was twenty when pop passed away. His death hit us all hard, though we went through it as a family, all of us stood with mama the first week. I miss him.
"Emmie are you go'in out tonight?" mama woke me from my thoughts
"Yes mama, after dinner of course" I said with a wink.
My mama giggled, "make sure you have drink for me!" I was most like my mama, she used to be my partner in crime, sometimes papa couldn't keep up with us. She was my number one woman in my life.
"When are you going to come down to the pub and grace everyone with your presence?" I teased my mom
"Oh you shush, you don't want to be seen with an ol' bat like me!" she chuckled
"I don't see no ol' bat, all I see is my beautiful mother" I said
"and don't you forget it, well I'm thinking about turnin' in after dinner, so not tonight hon, you have your fun, and go easy on the ladies, I raised a gentleman, and no floozies" she scolded
"But of course mama" I defended
"mhmm" she replied with a knowing smirk.
"Now let's eat! I'm starvin'!" we were having my favorite, pot roast and mashed potatoes tonight! Boy! my mama sure knows how to cook!
