"Family portrait — in the tree house! This is the boys' fortress against tigers, bears, Indians, Bad Guys — and most important, against little sisters. So Susie and I were evicted! Of course it was quite a shock to find out that the no-women ban extended to me too! Guess Susie and I are lucky we're allowed on the ladder! However! Susie's turn comes — a girl can enjoy this keen train without a bossy brother to interfere. Kim is in disgrace. He's sitting on the Turn Bench, which is for when the children make a fuss over wanting something that one of the others is playing with. If they don't make a fuss, I make sure the privileges are equally shared. But now that Kim's on the Turn Bench he has to wait very quietly — until Susie has her complete and utter fill of the train — before he can ride it. Kim's worried that the sun will set before he gets his chance — and Susie just keeps riding 'round and 'round, finishing off a Saturday morning at our house . . ." "Lunch doesn't take long, not with my hungry family! We eat in the Gages' screen house, built as a defense against the king-size California fly. In the background, by the way, you can see the over-size gym set the boys got one Christmas. I'll never forget Benjie's remark — 'How'd Santa Claus get that on his sleigh?!?'" f \ I fc£ J t ■ ^ %■ ■ mm r
