Ninja Kid has a creative writing requirement at her school; she has to submit two fictional stories every six weeks along with some poetry. I present some snippets.

Nighttime

At night is when I sleep.

When I sleep, I dream.

When I dream, it makes me happy.

When I’m happy, I don’t want to wake up.

But alas,

We all have to wake up in the morning.

“Mom, when you want to say like somebody mustered up their courage, how do you spell that? I mean, not like mustard, right?”

Sharpies

Have I ever told you about my obsession with Sharpies?

Well, here goes…

I love Sharpies so much, I wish they made

Sharpie pencils, because I would use them.

I love how they come in a variety of

Colors so I can color things.
