One Easter morning while the Tate girls were at church, our house was robbed. Gone was the television. Gone was the eight-track player. Gone was our sense of security.
Daddy, who never stepped foot in church, not even the obligatory Easter and Christmas church services, had driven down to the corner grocery store for Sunday morning cigarettes.
I was only gone ten minutes, he alleged.
In ten minutes our house was cleaned out.
Easter and cigarettes don’t mix.
Happy Easter!

Was there ever a dull moment at the cave?
Talya Tate Boerner says
No there was not.

Sounds like they were waiting for y’all to step out.
Anita Stafford says
Oh my goodness! That’s similar to my experience with having my UPS package stolen as soon as the truck delivered it!
Talya Tate Boerner says
:)) That happens in our Dallas neighbor a lot!

It’s a sign from God. He needs to stop smoking!
