Short Stories

Big Kid has started a notebook of short stories. I had to force him to do homework instead of working on it (a decision which I regret and don't necessarily agree with) so he's only finished one story, and had to rush it.

It is exactly as follows:
The story is called The Little mice. Once apon a time there was Little mice they like clocks and they loved making cakes and they don't like cats they like to draw they like books too!

I wrote that exactly as he did and he wrote it all 100% by himself...my kid used too correctly!! Damn, am I proud! Most adults haven't mastered that one. He also kicks ass at spelling.

He asked me to write a short (emphasis on short) story for him tonight about two dancing bananas. I don't really know what's up with him giving me homework, but I did:

Banana Dance Off
Once upon a time, two dancing bananas lived together in a kitchen. They were brothers, named Tim and Tom.

Tim thought he was a better dancer than Tom and he challenged Tom to a dance-off.

Tom put on his favorite song and did a great job dancing. Tim was so mad that Tom did so well that he jumped up and down in anger. His peel broke open and he slipped, becoming a banana split and losing the contest.

The end.

Then I drew an epic picture of a happy dancing banana, and an unhappy busted banana.
(it's even worse than you're imagining)

He better love it.
