Cul de Sac by Richard Thompson for January 18, 2021

darn these short attention spans of children

Alice “Mimi” Otterloop!

Perfect. The slouch, the fingers, the little dream-skip. Just perfect.

Mom will dwell on it for days, Alice will go and forget in 10 secs. Ah to be a child

Kevin will be her boss some day.

I keep seeing myself in Alice. After all these years I finally understand why everyone was always mad at me.

Moms, when your Alice grows up, please try to find a way to forgive her. <3

Alice; Prima Ballerina of manhole covers and couches has no time for bourgeois discipline.

Dancing on a big, upholstered bucket-head? ☺

out of the mouth of babes. they tell it like they see it. hey mom, instead of sitting on the couch you should have had a face to face discussion at the table.

But Kevin DOES have a stupid bucket head!

Focus Alice!

Alice is begging for some more serious discipline.

Maybe she should be sentenced to a month of pulling Kevin around in his little red wagon (assuming he has one)….
