A day to remember - N

I am so happy I have made an achievement! I can ride my bike without training wheels! Which means Brian (my bully) can't tease me about that. I have also made a basket on a ten foot hoop! Since Brian's hoop is lower I am better than him! I have worked SO hard! I had my bad shots. But I came through and did it! Biking took me three days. But I did it! I am also happy I started working at both these things.

My Trip

I went to europe! It was fun. ( Includes: France,Italy and switzerland) This is not it.

PS Don't worry.

Shan the Cow in the Barn - by R

Once upon a time there was a cow named Shan, and she lived on the farm and had lots of fun in the hay. She loved playing with the other animals, and sometimes she even liked pretending to be other animals. She liked pretending to be herself, and she liked pretending to be a pig, so sometimes when the farmer named Ben put by accident mud in her pen she rolled in it! And when the farmer got everything wrong, she played around in it. Then he made a sign showing what to do with each pen so he would not give the wrong animal the wrong thing. So it started to be just the cow! So what is that relief! So once a day Shan got along, and she didn't know this, but her friend the chicken had just had babies. It was a miracle! And they lived happily ever after. The end.

Mamma's note: This has been edited to help with tracking pronouns, and to clarify what the farmer did so he wouldn't give the wrong animal the wrong thing. Nonny explained that he "signed up" each pen - logical, but we decided it would be easier to explain if he made a sign.

Some People Are Annoying

I feel that about half a percent of annoying people should be disintegrated from the earth. I ran into annoying once - you do not want to! People can be annoying when they make fun of you, that's one thing, or when they do awful things to nature, such as catching birds.(they are BAD)

R uk kwjjurfhuytnht - Slide over the Chimney

Once upon a time there were some horses, and then one day the little one got lost. And her mom went out looking to find her, but she didn't find her, so she ran out looking at the farm. So she found her at the farm! And she ran away at night with her baby and ran back to the circus. And the baby forgot her toy, and she said, "I forgot my bear toy," and the mommy went down to find it and it was inside the barn where a human was, so she had to stay out of the barn until the farmer left. She had to go inside the barn and hide, and get the baby toy. And then she took it back and they slept with it, and they lived happily ever after.

The End.

Unicorns Fly Over the Village

from R, age 4

Once upon a time there was this unicorn family. They had some eggs, and the first day they hatched. Some unicorns hatched. The grown-up unicorns were so excited that they started to teach them flying early. And then, guess what happened? They fell off the nest, and were almost going to fall in the water where they could not swim.

They flied very high. And then, a bird came, and a bird caught them, and they put her onto Mickey Mouse's big marshmallow from Mickey Mouseketeers. That way they could fly, and they flew so fast, they ran into a tree. And then they twirled and twirled and twirled and fell so hard that they got a giant boo-boo on their back. So when a human found them, she told the grown-up unicorns that they would be back today from the hospital after they got a bandage on their backs. But the smallest one had a big boo-boo on her hoof, so she couldn't walk. They all lived happily together, but poor the little one, she had a hurt foot. What a day for her!

The end.

Welcome to Deep Thoughts!

I've been enjoying my kids so much lately - especially the pearls of sage wisdom they drop from time to time - that I thought I'd start a blog more about motherhood, childhood, and what it's all about. I'll share my thoughts, and the kids will drop in and share theirs, too.

This is all about fun, and deep thoughts.

Welcome!
