Re: Finish an old sibset?
These sound like they lived in the days before middle names, so I won't give them any, but the baby is Susannah. Probably called Sukey, and when the others have grown up and got married, Sukey and Polly are left to be that other rhyme "Poly, Put the Kettle On."
PS: The baby "tripping along" is *not* the one I'd give the sugar bowl to! I'd let her carry the spoons.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
