Dressing Up

 

Today I am going to be a fairy,

so I put on my sparkly dress, my crown

and I wave my wand, abracadabra, boozle

Cazoozle. My teddy is a frog now.

 

When I grow up I want to live in a pink castle.

I will marry a prince with yellow hair who

Wears pointy gold shoes and rides a black horse.

 

We will live happily ever after eating

candy canes all day and never having sprouts.

Our children will be beautiful and we will all

ride around in a shiny red car.

 

This was my attempt at writing in a childs voice. Not easy when you are forty to write as a seven year old!
