Amie made a book at nursery, or at least she came home with a few pages stapled toogether, with some drawings on them. When I asked her about the story, she delighted in telling me it in some detail. She asked me to write it for her while she dictated it, and this is it verbatim... the next Booker Prize winner pehaps?
"Once upon a time there was a boy playing hide in sick in the garden and then all on a sudden the warm sun came up and then the boy saw that there was a monster in his garden. And then the boy ran in to tell his mum there was a monster in the garden and then the boy called the mans to come pack all his toys in a big box and put them on a plane to go to the new house, and they flew in the airplane to the new house.
And then the monster called to the plane "Please can you put the steps out at the front please" and then the monster climbed up them. But then all on a sudden the plane goed faster and then the other plane with the monster got shocked and then the monster fell out and then when he looked up he saw a big thing and it was cross. And they lived togeather happily ever after"
Noah has decided he's ready to wear pants. On Tuesday at toddler group he asked me to take him to the toilet, and he sat on it and did his business.. so I've bitten the bullet and put him in pants only during the day. We've had a few accidents but more often than not he gets it where it's meant to be. His sticker chart is filling up fast, and we're well on the way to no nappies anymore.. Hooray! :)
