A story

Once upon a time there was a cute, crazy, little girl named Teresa Rose. She lived with her mommy, daddy, brother Andrew, & sister Rebecca. They were very happy. Then one night at bedtime Teresa didn't want to go to sleep! Instead she jumped in her crib like it was a trampoline, sang the ABCs, & threw her puppy out of her crib so Andrew would pick it up over & over & over again. After a long time, the kids' room was finally quiet. They all slept soundly in their beds with happy dreams.

About 5:00 a.m. their mommy woke up. She was cold! Instead of turning on the furnace again, since it was May after all, she decided to make sure the kids were all snug in their beds. She quietly tiptoed into their room. Andrew already had on his sheet & his comforter all the way up to his eyebrows, so his mommy just kissed his head. Rebecca lay sprawled half-off of her bed, so her mommy laid her gently on her pillow & covered her up.

Then it was Teresa's turn. There she lay all scrunched up in a ball in the corner of her crib sleeping soundly. But wait...in the other corner was her sleeper! And in another was her onesie! And in the last was her diaper! Oh, no! She must be REALLY cold. As tempted as mommy was to just let her sleep, she decided to clean her up, put her jammies back on, & lay her down to sleep again. She fell back to sleep for two hours! Then when her daddy went to get her up in the morning, she was already awake. And guess what? She looked just the same as when mommy first found her. Silly baby!

The End
