a short story

Once upon a time

there was a momma

who took a bunch of her kids shopping

even though she was sick of shopping

because there was supposed to be an incredible sale

at the convention center.

The sale was lousy

so they ended up going to NBC, too

The momma's children were all very well behaved

(much better, in fact, than any other children

they came in contact with during the trip)

so she treated them to Taco Bell for lunch

and Sonic

(where they had buy 1 get 1 free shakes)

for dessert.

the end.

true story.

(Lily asked me to tell her a short story while she went potty at TB

this is a tradition of the kids - telling stories in the bathroom.

anyways.

I completely missed out on any form of story-telling gene

so this is the story I told her.

She liked the happy ending :-)
