Sometime ago Caitlyn and Jaina had friends over to play. We had some, what we call poppers, (small paper teardrop filled with gunpowder). You throw them on the ground and they make a loud bang!
I told the girls, that when I was in school, the boys used to throw them at our feet as we were walking by to give us a fright.
Going round the corner into my kitchen, I overheard "did you hear that guys, in the olden days the boys used to throw these at the girls feet to give them a fright!"
Now, I must tell you, this is the first time anyone has referred to any part of my life as "The Olden Days"!
