Sounds ok, to me, Mystery Author. One never knows what to expect out of the mouths of kids. I enjoyed your contest entry. The ending was perfect as is the picture. Best wishes. Respectfully, Jan

For all we know, that's exactly the story Norman Rockwell wanted to tell.
Nice job of putting a little extra twist at the end.
I wish you lots of luck when the polls open.

Peace, Lee

    Thank you very much, Lee. I like to think there was a story behind every painting Rockwell did.

Humour is evident; the cop saw the little boy running away but he answered he was meeting Ma at the Laundromat; cop's guess was wrong; well said, well done.

Ok, so we'll bypass the fact that it's a hot day here, and I now crave a sundae, lol. This is a charming vignette. Everyone knows runaway kids pack their stuff in cloths and carry it on a stick, so neat little twist there. Good luck in the contest.
