Mr. Smallpiece is enjoying his pipe and his wife has their baby on her lap ). But then Mrs. Smallpiece leaves for the night to visit her mother and, as an exception, leaves the care of the baby to her husband ). For Mr. Smallpiece, this marks the end of the lovely repose and the beginning of a restless night. ) In the past, a baby's parents looked much older than they do today. **) In the past, roles within a marriage were clearly divided: men worked outside the home and women performed household chores and cared for the children.
