Rosie's story

Rosie wrote a story on the computer:

The Advevter

Once upon a time
A very brave knight
Saved a sad dragon
They made friends
and
Everyone was very happy

Gone swimming

We had Esther and Izaak staying, but Holly and Rosie had to go out early to swimming. Holly left a note:

Fashion show

Rosie: "Tad just did a fashion show. He walked up here. Stopped. Turned around. And walked away again. That's a fashion show."

Assessment

Mummy's friends came around to practice assesing children. Iggy the dog said "Sometimes Daddy kisses Mummy". Ziggy said "My Daddy never kisses my Mummy." "What about you Holly?"

"I don't think so. But I think they are kissing when I am in my bed."

Teenagers

Rosie whispered to Mummy...
"When you get to be thirteen... EVERYTHING is boring."

Maria's Grandad

Maria's Grandad died last week.

Rosie: "Let's pretend that one of your parents died, and we are princesses and..."
Maria: "My Grandad died last week."
...

Rosie: "I bet your Grandad is looking down on us right now."
Maria: "Yeah. I think he is. And probably he is happier now because he was in lots of pain before. And probably now he can stand up."
Rosie: "Yeah. I think he probably can."

Also, a bit later...
Maria: "It's good to cry, though, isn't it?"
Rosie: "Yeah. Because if you keep it inside, it can make you poorly."

Halloween

Rosie has made these pictures to go on the front door this evening.

Hospital food

Daddy overheard Holly talking to the TV this evening.

Harry Hill: "If you like hospital food... start acting like this crowd..."
Holly: "But I don't know what it's like..."

Daddy's mornings

Holly bounced into Daddy's bed this morning and warily said this before anything else: "Have you finished all your farting yet...?"

Things

Daddy was sitting on his bed, about to pull up his underpants.

Holly: "Daddy you see I was reading this book Sherlock Hound and Whatsup Wombat and I heard a funny noise it was like a dog or a bit like a bird and I looked out of the window but I couldn't see anything so I started reading again and there it was again so I looked once again and I could see Winnie next door but when I heard the noise Winnie wasn't making a noisy face so it was all rather...

... Why are your things out?"

Of vital import

Holly: "Me and Sophie were talking about big boobies. And I said that Nana has MUCH bigger boobies than Mummy..."

Twins

We met a perceptive boy called Harry today.

Harry: "Are your girls twins?"
Mummy: "Yes. Did you guess because they look the same?"
Harry: "No. They have the attitude."
Mummy: "The attitude?! What do you mean?"
Harry: "You know... Always fighting..."

Spoilt Kid

Mummy bought an exercise book each for the girls.

Holly wanted the

other

one.
