This past weekend we packed up our little car and drove across "God's country" to meet friends from Arizona for our annual New Year's camping trip. It was a very long drive and both little girls (Eirena and Uc) did fabulously ~ well, Uc has a tendency to get get car sick, but other than that, she did great.
As we were driving back,we were hoping that our exhausted little girl would just fall asleep. But instead she kept herself awake chattering away for an extra 90 minutes. Dr. Daddy and I were very amused to listen to her talk to herself. We were also very impressed when we heard this:
So they went to the forest to ask for help.
"I think the moon is lost," explained Bear.
"Can you help me find him?"
"Don't worry, we'll help you,"
replied the animals in the forest.
Together they searched and searched.
But they couldn't find the moon.
At last Bear sat down and sighed,
"The moon is lost, and it's all my fault!"
Then Bear got an idea.
He jumped up and cried,
"Okay, Moon, I give up. You win!"
Just then the breeze began to blow again,
and the moon came out of its hiding place.
"Look," chirped Little Bird, "The moon wasn't lost.
He was just hiding behind that big cloud."
Bear was so happy he danced and danced.
Then everyone played hide and seek."

Yes, Eirena was sitting in the back seat of the car reciting Moon Game to herself. It entertained her, and it entertained us.
