Mother May I

"Mother, May I?" was a very popular yard game in Petersburg, Virginia, in the Blandford community. Our yard was one of the notorious places to play "Mother, May I?" The leader would offer you giant steps, baby steps, bunny hops, umbrellas, and all sorts of ways to touch the leader first. You had to say, "Mother, May I?" and obtain permission in order to move. If you moved without the permission of "Mother, May I?" you had to start over. We did not have any grass in our front yard due to these yard games. As we became adults, the grass finally grew in. We taught these games to our children when we visited, but they didn't play them enough to kill the grass. My mother and stepfather loved to see the porch filled with family and children playing in the yard. She loved the company.
