Bedtime Chatter

“Doggie wishes he could become human but he can’t. He likes you because he thinks you do good stuff. What if there was a magic thing that could turn doggie into a woman? That would be weird. He would bark like a woman. I want to be a Christian.”
“Tonight’s the night! Oh for Pete’s sake. How are we gonna do this?! This is a crazy night! It’s a crazy night today. Aaaaarrrggghh!”
Mama when is it going to be morning? When is the rooster going to come up and make a sound? I want to go to the farm and see horsies. And ride one.
[furiously rubbing eyes] I’m not talking because I think it’s morning. I just don’t want to go to bed. But I’m never sleepy…”
I’ll wake up in the night and you won’t know where I’m going. I’ll just play and read…

All About Unicorns

Unicorns: a pseudo-science project by Maggie

Habitat: rainbow rain forest. they need rainbows to run across.

Diet: they eat magical bananas that match the color of their hide. The bananas come in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black and clear. They have magical sparkly poop. It comes out normal and lays on the ground and once a day the unicorn uses it’s horn to turn the poop into magic poop.

Reproduction and young: they make a big nest and poop out an egg and sit on it. The baby unicorn hatches and the mama carries it around on it’s back.

Predators: no known. Unicorn magic is the most powerful. It is rainbow power and it comes out of the horn.

Locomotion: they use their legs. They don’t fly. That would be weird.

Sounds: neigh…like a horse. The babies sound the same.

Magical powers: rainbow power for casting spells.

“And now…another thing we can talk about is Pegasus. I know a lot about Pegasus.”

Tommy really wanted a muffin tonight and was so excited when I found one sneaky one hiding in the freezer. He cut it in pieces and ate some, but saved a piece for Maggie. He wrapped it, drew a happy face on it, and put it by her bed to find when she wakes up in the morning.
