I ran the water
Helped her get into the tub
That was when I knew
She who had bathed me
Could no longer bathe herself
Our roles had reversed
This week’s W3 prompt: Choose one specific object or place from your childhood—a bedroom doorway, a schoolyard swing, a favorite toy, a familiar street—and write about the moment when it began to feel different: when you sensed that childhood was receding and something else had begun.
Does it count if I was in my 50’s when this happened?

this is tender, and a reality for many families. The reversal of roles is a burden that not many are ready to take on.
thanks for joining in the prompt, Sally.
It will come to us all 💜💜💜
