3 Little Dinosaurs by Sullivan Murphy

(Opens a travel book on Hawaii and begins to tell Sawyer and I her first complete story...)

Three Little Dinosaurs goin' on a Bear Hunt! Ooh!
One dinosaur lost its baby.
Gotta find it. Oooh. Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
One dinosaur find a chesure dress ("treasure chest") and got a surprise
there in dah water!
The end.



Thankfully, we shared this super sweet moment just before her quiet time today, as we had a less sweet experience at our local library today with our playgroup (which involved high-pitched screaming, an unsuccessful time out, an intervention from a library employee, canceling our lunch order and leaving the building abruptly.) Sigh.

All in a day's work, huh?

"Going on a bear hunt" reminds me so much of your mom!!! She used to say that to us all of the time. Fun memories. Sorry about the library incident - we've all been there, and sigh is right!

I'm sorry your library experience wasn't pleasurable :( We also had a bad experience at Cars 2...the movie was totally inappropriate for children. At least our little ones can run and play to their heart's content tomorrow night! See you then, and thanks for sharing the adorable story by Sullivan :)
