Eliza's Stories

I meant to post these long ago, and I don't think I ever did. I just found them again.




Eliza's latest story, filled with sorrow:


Long ago there was a fairy, lost.
She snuck into a castle, and then she got dead.
And then an ant eat her up for his dinner. And she didn't be alive ever again; she was in the ant's tummy.
The End.

Another story:

Once upon a time there was a girl. Her name is Anya.
Anya was a good little girl. And when she growed up she was nice. But when she was a little girl she was mean. But she got bigger and bigger and bigger.
And then she got even more bigger.
That's a little story.

Mischief

I was in the kitchen cooking. Things got quiet. Too quiet. This is what I found in the living room when I went to see what the girl was up to.

I asked Eliza to make a face that showed how she felt about the mess she made. This is her face:

Pretty sly.
I made her clean it up.

Some Photos

Watching a movie with all her inanimate friends.

Eliza likes to request that I make pop ups for her. They are tricky to improvise, but here they are from the other day.

And here she is passed out on the floor after school a couple weeks ago.

Statue

Eliza's new game is pretending to be a statue. She stands on her stepstool and holds perfectly still, and then suddenly runs away giggling.

First Day of School

Monday was Eliza's first day back at school. She was excited to go. We selected her pink dress with pockets, as pinkness and pocketry are two of her favorite qualities in things. I told her I wanted a picture of her in her backpack ready for school, and she pulled out her crazy model poses once more. Best for last:

As I was driving her to school, she suddenly said, "My teacher and my friends are going to be so IMPRESSED--that I know how to wink!" She has recently learned how to wink. Her winks are fairly difficult to perform and rather lengthy, lasting minutes at a time. So we arrived at the school, and Eliza walked up to the door on her own, knocked and waited. And I realized she was standing at the door with one eye closed! So she walked into her first day of school with her face twisted up in a twisted wink. I'm sure it was quite an entrance.

Eliza Photos

Eliza wanted to take a picture with her arm around Joshua's shoulder. So we got a couple shots of strangling/hair/running away, etc.

 

Hyrum likes to pursue me when I have the camera. 

This is Eliza's model pose.

This is a hat I got for free that advertises my stuff. Give me money.
