Alphabetical "last" exercise from class, by Amy, Crickett and Matt (we never titled it)
All my Barbies wear wedding gowns.
Before Barbie, I dressed the cat.
Cats don't like veils.
Daddy bought me my first Barbie after Snowball scratched my face.
Eyeballs don't like to be scratched.
For Christmas, Santa brought me a trunk full of Barbie dresses.
Gowns for all the bride's maids.
Here Comes The Bride is my favorite song.
I just wish it was me...
Jetsetter Barbie is married to Ken.
Ken doesn't look good to me.
Lying in bed at night, I can see my wedding.
My gown looks just like Barbie's.
Nobody is as pretty as me.
On the playground, I got my ring.
People won't think it's real.
Quint says it is because he kissed me behind the slide at recess.
Right on the lips!
Sometimes I think he's gross.
That doesn't mean we're not married though.
Until I fell out of the tree...
Veils don't make good safety nets.
Wrists hurt when they break
Xrays don't hurt though.
Yesterday when I came back to school I was sad.
Zoe was wearing my ring :(
Thanks for putting this up, Matt! What a great piece.
