Short stories by Emma

I thought I would collect a bunch of these short narratives Emma recites during play but honestly it has become too hard keeping up with all of them now. Her sentences just go on and on, and on (and on!). But a month ago, here are some things she was acting out. These are her own words.

I live in a hole by the sea. I sleep all winter in my nest, then I wake up. It is snowing; we have to get birdseed!

Emma looks up and sees a rook. He lands on a pillow. I put him on a leash; he's tethered. Then a horse comes and steals the rook away. 

Last night something sprung out of the bedroom. It said, "GO EMMA!" And tumbled over. 

Emma has a bite on her leg. Bug came along and bite, "Bite!" 

 "..huh?"

I'm itchy, I have to scratch! The bugs like to bite bite bite.

Also Emma loves comparing things sometimes relevant to what we are doing and other times completely random. 

Bubbles live in water. Snakes also live in water.

I say, Some snakes live on land.

They have to get a boat and go in the water!

In the car on the way home from NH after thanksgiving, from the back she announces "some people are tall, and,.. Some people are not tall!"

I'd better go because she's sanding Catrick
