The following is an original story told to me by my three year old, minus the occasional “and then what happened?” from me. As previously mentioned, he’s going to be telling the stories on this blog for a bit, because I’m broken somehow.
One time, there was a spider.
And he crawled out of a hole!
And he fell down.
And he said “aahhhh!”
And then he went up on his web, and he fell down.
And he caught his Mama.
And his Mama said, “don’t fall down any more, ok?”
And the spider said “I like to fall down.”
And then he fell down again and he broke our window!
He fell into the garbage.
Then he crawled up and he broke my picture.
And then he fell in Elmo’s mouth and Elmo ATE HIM ALL UP.
That’s not the end.
The end is in five minutes.
Then his Mama came in and said “where’s my little boy spider?”
And then he crawled out of Elmo’s mouth.
And he caught his mama!
And they fell in the garbage.
And they went up, up, up, up!
And they went to the ceiling and they made a web.
…
…
…
…
And they fell down.
I will be waiting here for five minutes to get to the end. That is fabulous.
I laughed when he said that part and he stopped and asked what was so funny
Love it! This is a great way to keep a record of his stories. Good to see you back even if it’s Owl who’s doing all the talking for now. I understand he does a lot of talking…
Always… talking… :-p
That is awesome! The Boy is in a stage where most of what he says are questions that he knows the answer to. For instance, “I’m not going to Pre-school today. I’m going to stay here with you, Mummy!” 2 seconds later, “Am I going to stay here with you, Mummy?” My answers is usually, “What do you think?” Variations on this conversation go on all damned day. I would much prefer this weird adventurous story.
I am so glad Owl is not the only one who does that. Almost all of Owl’s conversation is like that and it DRIVES ME LOOPY!
Guaranteed the first time I’ve ever thought a story, and accompanying picture, starring a spider was cute. Way to go, Owl! 😀
Simply priceless! Lots of love to you all. xoxo
The teacher in me wants to respond with teachery comments about what great structure it has and how well he kept with the same theme and characters throughout.
The rest of me just wants to say ‘AHHHHH SPIDERS!!!!”
Awesome story Owl 🙂
I’ll ask him for something cuter next time 😀
I love it! Very creative kid you have there! 😀
