Despite such embarrassing routines, Michael and I accepted our punishments because our mothers always spanked out of love and made that clear whenever they put one of us over their laps.
According to Michael, Aunt Sheila never spanked hastily or in anger and never without a good reason.
If she felt his correction couldn’t wait until Sunday night, she informed him in a firm tone that he had earned an “extra bedtime chat” and left it at that.
Michael knew he would be put to bed early on those nights and that his mother expected him to take his evening bath directly after doing the dinner dishes.
Despite ten years of such bedtime chats with his mother, Michael almost always got butterflies in his stomach while taking his bath.
After drying off and brushing his teeth, he reported to his room wrapped in a towel.
