The big, big, BIG purple ball!



We bought this ball for Pookie in Spring 2004. He didn't pay much attention to it until just a few weeks ago when I was desperate for a bedtime story, and I made one up about the big purple ball.

Once upon a time . . . there was a big, big, big, big, big, big, BIG, BIG, BIG PURPLE BALL! And there was a three year old boy named Pookie and his little sister named G that loved to play with it. And they would play so nicely and share the big, big, big, big, big, big, BIG, BIG, BIG PURPLE BALL! It wasn't just an ordinary purple ball. It was a big, big, big, big, big, big, BIG, BIG, BIG PURPLE ____________. (This is where Pookie excitedly says, "BALL!") Pookie and G would play with the big purple ball for hours. It was fun to roll around the yard and it made them giggle all over because it was a big, big, big, big, big, big, BIG, BIG, BIG _____________! And if you go to sleep and make no more noise, you too can play with the big, big, big . . .

Not the most complex story; but it's all in the telling and elaborating. :)

Once again, this picture was taken by Grandma C. early August 2005.

That is such a cute photo - and story. Hmmm, maybe I need to make up an exciting story about a boy that loves to do chores...hee hee.
