Way Back When-sday

When I was at my sister's house last weekend, she shared this little gem with me, circa 1974.
If you have ever met my sister, you can tell she is on the left in this photo. The blonde hair and adorable cheeks are a dead giveaway. And yes, that is little ol' me who is being dragged around by my loving big sis. By my foot.

The thing is, I didn't seem to mind. And I'm fairly certain that if one of my older kids did that to Ben, he would think it was the greatest thing ever. Isn't it funny how older siblings can get away with doing things that parents would never be allowed to do?!

On a sidenote, who loves the brown and gold striped couch (you'll just have to trust me on this one) and shag carpet? Gotta love the 70's, man.

My goodness! I've seen that scene played out in our living room too! Nathanael dragging Abby by the foot. You and Abby were equally good humored. Yes, older siblings can get away with much mayhem!

So funny. I am always laughing about how much Lev loves ACE despite the abuse ACE can dish out. ACE will climb on top of poor little Lev and crush him, steal his toys, etc. But as soon as he gets off, Lev will toddle after him - the forgiving, adoring fan to the end.

I certainly remember those days. I love the photo.

The other funny thing is that one of your parents is probably taking the picture and letting it happen. Good times! :)
