Stories by Jenna


This morning it was very cold as we ventured to Wal-mart for groceries. (The low tonight is 8 degrees.) I was telling Jenna about frostbite which prompted this story, that I will try to tell verbatim.
"Once upon a time there was a girl that was playing outside and it was very cold, and she played outside too long. She got frostbites all over her body. Then the policeman came and took the snow flakes to jail. Then the girl put bandaids on her bites. Then you know what hapened? The girl was beautiful and her name was Jenna, and she was a very fast runner, but there was a giant snowflake that was fast too. He was chasing her. Jenna came to a tree that protected her and took her home to her cozy bed, but you know what?, the tree turned into a snowflake! Ahhhh!"

Jenna loves to tell stories. Steve and I tell her stories at bedtime, and she loves being read to. Apparently Steve often pauses during his stories and says "And do you know what happened next?. . ."
By the way, this is not how I thought I described frostbite!
