Today's Story is by Melia
Iggie was a little two year old girl. She had a wild imagination. One minute she was a firefighter, the next a princess. One morning when Iggie came downstairs for breakfast mommy asked, "Who are you today?"
" Iggie.,"she replied. Normally she would say something like Barney, or Big bird or a dog, but today she just glumly replied with who she really was. And mommy got very worried, Iggie had never sounded so unhappy before.
"Iggie are you feeling okay?"mommy asked worriedly.
" Yes" replied unhappy Iggie.
'My poor baby ' thought mommy. Later that day, around noon, Iggie's sister, June came in the living room where mommy and Iggie were reading their books.
"Mom, who's Iggie being? I need to say hello." June remarked.
"Iggie.," the little two year old replied.
"
Oh hi Iggie.," June said surprised, feeling the little one's head to make sure she was alright.
At dinner when daddy came home from work he said,"How's my little________?"
Normally Iggie would jump out and excitedly shout out what she was that day. today she walked over and said , "Iggie." Daddy was shocked. Mommy and June just shrugged, the two of them had sang songs, and told jokes all day to try and cheer up Iggie, but unfortunately nothing worked.
That night when Iggie was all ready for bed, in her Elmo footy pajamas, mommy, daddy and June all walked her to her room and sat down on her bed beside her."All right kid, spill your guts. What's wrong?" daddy asked eager to solve his daughter's problem.
"No wong. Day I tend I sad.," Iggie said in her sweet little voice. Her mother hugged her, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Iggie started laughing. Soon so did mommy, daddy, and June. They all kissed her goodnight and she soon fell fast asleep.
What a lovely little story.
