Memory Number 5: Family Fun Games (5/14)

Checkers and Chinese checkers. My late father had two dear friends who always came over to our house. My dad and his friends would sit on the front porch and play checkers all day long!  My sister was given Chinese checkers as a gift one Christmas. My sister, my brothers and I would play for hours. My mom knew where her children were. LOL. One time I overheard my mother’s friend asked her why she didn’t complain about my dad spending so much time on the front porch playing checkers with his friends. She responded: “I know where he is.” LOL.
