The Reader

I had the pleasure of eavesdropping on Cara reading "Grumpy Bird" outloud to herself tonight... She did an amazingly good job... so tonight, for your entertainment, I present:


Cara's Version of Grumpy Bird, or Why I Made Mommy Read This Book Every Single Night For the Last Two Weeks:

"Grumpy Bird sleepy.
Here is Sheepie! 'Hello, Grumpy Bird!'
'I walking.'
'I walking too,' says Sheepie!
There is Raccoon, and Rabbit, and Sheepie, and Grumpy Bird.
'Hello Grumpy Bird!'
'I walking.'
'I like walking. I walking too!'
Here is Fox, and Sheepie, and Rabbit, and Beaver, and Grumpy Bird, and Raccoon. Everybody walking.
Bird is grumpy. Bird flying! Have a snackie, Birdie!
Everybody take a nap."
