I Love My Parents

Once upon a time, there was a little girl who did not want to leave her parents. But then the parents wanted to bring her to school.  He was hired to be a teacher but he never got her as a student. So they did homeschool.

And then one day she ordered this beautiful dress that was simple.  And then one day the package could not make it so they asked the parents to get it. They knew how important it was and the sign said no kids allowed and it was too dangerous if the kids were outside without a grownup.  So unfortunately they put her somewhere where she would be babysat but she missed her parents.

The baby sitter felt bad for her so they tried acting a bit like her parents. They fed her her favourite food and her favourite dessert but it just wasn’t enough.  When she slept she had a very bad dream. Her dream was that she was separated from her parents forever but that was only a dream. When she woke up she cried. When she woke up she couldn’t see her parents so she was worried that they couldn’t make it.

She heard a ding-don on the door.  She thought it was her parents but when she looked it was the mailman delivering her dress. And she asked politely where is my parents? And the mailman politely said back, “The dress was from a very faraway country which was three days away. So you may have to wait for two more days. Is that clear?”  

When she heard the news she wasn’t satisfied with what she wanted so she cried. The babysitters gave her her favourite breakfast but still she missed her parents – it just wasn’t enough. Then when two days passed, when she woke up her parents still wasn’t there, she wondered where was her parents. Then she heard another ding dong, it was her grandpa.

 Even it wasn’t enough she still put a small grin on her face. She politely asked, “Why aren't my parents here?” The grandfather politely said you have to wait one hour more and then you will finally see your parents. Then her grin started to fade away and sadly she frowned.

When she waited another hour more she heard a ding dong, she said “It must be my parents!  It must be! I was really looking forward to it!” Then when she saw her parents she put a big grin on her face. Her frown faded away and she started to laugh. Her parents said, “Why are you laughing, didn’t you miss me?” She said, “I saw Grandpa and the mailman delivering the dress.” They said, “What? I thought it didn’t make it!” Then the parents said, “Here is the dress in a disappointed voice.”  Then they started realizing that they accidently ordered TWO dresses! They all laughed in confusion! And then after they fixed the problem they lived happily ever after!
