Abstract

I am told that I climbed to the'top of our porch trellis when I was two years old. I used to believe that I remembered that moment the ivy tickling my stomach, a caterpillar crawling into my underpant , clinging to the slats until my father's outstretched hand supported my bottom letting go, feeling weightless, feeling safe. But now I think I don't remember his at all It was my father's retelling of the story that was real. His voice rang with pride.
