The rainbow that never ends

Serafina wrote a book.

The Rainbow That Never Ends.
Once upon a time it was raining and a rainbow appeared.
And never end.
A red rainbow.
But it was awesome. red red red!
I loved it. Mm mmm yes.
And it always existed.

Pixie Hollow

I bribed Serafina with fairy stickers to help me clean the living room.
I decided to scan her picture and upload it because I rather liked the rabbit she drew. Her drawing skills have really taken off this year. (Also you can't really tell but the fairies have iridescent wings. Best stickers EVER.) It was a timely bribe too, because we just watched a tinkerbell movie on netflix, this very afternoon.

Church stuff

Sunday morning Fina was bawling that I shouldn't take her to church because she knew that she couldn't behave herself in sacrament. I made her go anyway, because I darkly suspect that it was just an act and she wanted to stay home and watch television. Here's what she made in sacrament.
Serafina's Skripshrs. Let's read a few sample passages, shall we? The first one is apparently from the book of behaving:
Awww.
She's getting better at writing. And as a plus she was concentrating really hard and didn't act like a monkey.

Poor fi

I made Fina come inside when she didn't want to, and then when she argued I meanly told her that I'm not taking her outside to play tomorrow since she throws big fits when it's time to come in. Then I went about making dinner, and ignored her wailing and whining, so 5 minutes later she came and handed me this note.
No wn luvs Me
"No one loves me mommy! And I drew me crying big tears!" Now apparently that didn't get the response she was looking for, because she left and returned a few minutes later with another note.
I wt tow nr uwa
(I want to run away, for those of you who can't sound out kindergarten writing.) Anyway, she took them away from me and showed them to her dad, who of course gave her the reaction she was looking for, so she went to draw more. And fought with her sister a little, spawning the next note, which I couldn't sound out on my own and I had to ask what it says.
It apparently says "worst sister ever. No sister wants to be mine."  Then she wrote more getting sillier and sillier, and I was just happy that she was practicing writing. Anyway, I was amused by her cleverness.

Mrs Curl


She's such a curly person, and she has every cure. When a kid is selfish, she spanks them. And then they start sharing. She's like Mrs. Piggle Wiggle. And if some kids named Dick and Shyla (I'm just making up names here)  were slow eater tiny bite takers they'd get the tiniest dishes and they'd eat so much they'd get so thin. If you want to find Mrs. Curl, she's always in California in the pool. Mrs. Curl is the best person. If a kid wants curls in their hair to go to school she'll just go "wooop!" and their hair will be curly like hers. (That's what Fina said about the picture.)

The top of the page is where she was practicing writing. For Four Red Eloowes (that's her sounded out spelling of her sister's name.)
