A Gaping Big Hole

My tooth was very loose. It hurt to bite with it. It was hard to eat my toast at breakfast. I wanted it to come out. I wiggled it and wiggled it but it wouldn't come out.

One day, it got so loose it was hanging by one corner. I could turn it right round. But it wouldn't come out. I didn't want any morning tea that day in case it came out while I was eating.

Lunch time came. I was eating my lunch when Sophie told me, "Your tooth looks even looser."

I put my hand into my mouth and gave my tooth a little tug. It came straight out.

After lunch I gave it to Mum to look after. Now I have a gaping big hole in my mouth. I like my hole. I think it looks funny.

The one next to it is wiggly as well. I really want it to come out too.

Cows and Chasing

I can remember a long time ago. I can remember when I was about three. Charlotte, Sophie and I were playing dolls and dress ups in the garden. I was in a long dress because we were pretending to be mummies.

I don’t remember much about the game but I remember Charlotte, Sophie and I running. We were running because there was a cow chasing us. I didn’t see the cow coming until she was behind me chasing me. She must have come from the paddock next door. I felt scared. I was a long way behind my sisters. Charlotte came back for me.

We ran into the house. We told Callum, “There’s a cow escaped from the paddock!” Then Duncan and Callum chased it back through the gate with a broom. We watched through the window. I didn’t like the cows too much after that.

Twins

I would like to have a twin. It sounds nice. I would always have someone to play with. I would like to laugh when someone mistook me for my twin. But I don't have a twin. So I pretend.

Two of my dolls are twins. They look exactly the same. I like to play with them. I like to mke them act just like I would act if I had a twin.
Sophie and I are twins sometimes. We wear the same clothes, play the same games and pretend we look exactly the same. But we're not. I've got blond hair, and she has brown hair, I'm short, and she's tall, and I have freckles, but she doesn't. But we both have blue eyesDad and I are twins too. We have the same colour hair...well, almost. We both take coffee to my swimming lessons, but he always drinks it before I'm done. It's not fair!
I like being twins with Sophie and Dad. But I would still like a real twin.

Mummy's Birthday

It was Mummy's birthday. Imogen made pancakes for breakfast. They had sugar and honey on them. They were delicious. Mum had hers in bed.Sophie and me made some birthday cards for Mum, and a birthday banner. Duncan hung the banner on the wall.
Then it was present time. We all went into the living room. Mummy bought herself a nice pair of boots. We wrapped them up in newspaper because they were in a very big box and we didn't have enough wrapping paper.I gave her a necklace with matching earrings. She got lots and lots of chocolates. Charlotte gave her a rose bush. It looked like a stick. Sammy one of our fat cats, tried to sit on it. Aunty Vicky gave Mum a bangle with a watch on it. It was very nice. I liked it. Mum immediately took off her other watch and put her new one on.We had pizza for lunch. We also had a birthday cake. It was very chocolatey. It had mini M&Ms on top. And it had chocolate squiggles on top too. It was nice.In the afternoon we prepared for Mum's birthday dinner party. We laid the table, lighted lots of candles and found some nice music. Imogen and Callum finished making the dinner.

Then the guests came. We said hello, then we went and watched 'Despicable Me'. Imogen, Callum, Duncan, and Charlotte were the servers for the dinner.The guests stayed for a very long time. But finally they went home and we all went to bed.

I enjoyed Mum's birthday.

My Dress

My dress is very old. 17 years old. My big sister Felicity had it first. It was a very special dress. When she grew out of it, it was put away for Imogen to grow into.

Imogen really liked the dress. It was one of her favourite dresses. She liked to wear it to mass in the summer. She only wore it for mass and very special days.

Then it was passed down to Charlotte. She liked it a lot too. Her favourite part of the dress was the big white lacy collar.

When Charlotte grew out the dress Sophie got it. She wore it for Christmas. It looked as good as the day it was bought.

Then Sophie grew out of it and I got it. It is my favourite dress because it is so pretty. It might have faded a little bit, but I love it. It is the only dress

to have been worn by all five of us sisters.

My Liv Dolls

For my seventh birthday I got a Liv doll. Her name is Daniella. A Liv doll is rather like a Barbie, but her arms and legs have joints, and their hair comes off.

I liked Daniella, and I liked Liv dolls. Sophie liked Liv dolls too, and she wanted to have one. I wanted another one. So we decided to save all our money to buy them.

Every week we saved our pocket money, until we had enough to buy the dolls. Then Mum and Dad took us to the shops to get them.

We already knew which dolls we wanted so it didn't take us long to find them. We bought them ourselves without any help.

When we got home the new dolls met Daniella. She was very happy to meet them. They love playing together.

My new doll's name is Alexis.

Sophie's new doll's name is Sophie. Isn't that funny?

We want to buy more Liv dolls. We would also like to buy special hair.

Making Muffins

Yesterday Sophie and me made muffins. We got our packet mix muffins out of the pantry. Mine were chocolate and caramel muffins. Sophie's were Apple and Cinnamon. I got to crack my own egg into the bowl. I don't normally do that, only when I'm making packet mixes. Charlotte had to help me measure the water. Then I stirred the ingredients together.

Sophie made her muffins at the same time. She did it all on her own. Then we put them in the muffin tins.Charlotte put them in the oven because I'm not allowed to do that. While the muffins cooked, we got to lick out the bowls. I shared my bowl with Charlotte. It tasted really nice. I love licking out bowls.

Then we cleaned up the kitchen while the muffins were still cooking. I liked cleaning up with Sophie. It was fun. Charlotte took the muffins out of the oven. The muffins smelt really nice. Sophie's smelt the strongest.
We ate them for afternoon tea.

I like cooking on my own because I get to do everything myself. When I cook with my sisters, I don't get to do things like crack the eggs. But I still get to lick out the bowls. Yum!
