Once Upon a Time

Tonight, Addy was playing in my closet. After a while, she came & got me & said "Story time." She brought me to my bathroom & had me sit down on a chair (which was really an upside down laundry basket). Then she put on a play for me! She said the words & acted it out & had even set up a bunch of baskets for her setting. I wrote it down as she told me because this is a VERY BIG accomplishment for her! This is EXACTLY what she said...

"Once upon a time

There was a princess

She lived in a castle"

"And Bailey"

"And a dragon... Roar!"

"And open castle & get Bailey"

"Yay! And Bailey is happy!"

"And they all lived happily ever after.

The End!

Yay!"

And then she told me to "Clap your hands!"

This may not be the best story ever & definitely isn't the most detailed story. But for my little girl, WOW was I impressed! Not only is that a lot of words that she put together (she still mostly speaks in 2 or 3 word phrases) but also this was a great social interaction for her! She put this together all by herself & presented it to me! There isn't a prouder mom than me right now!
