Yogs Cinderella Story
Last night in a vain attempt to put three kids to sleep together, I decided to read them some stories. The first book that we read was an extremely abridged version of Cinderella. This is how it went:
“Cinderella: There is a ball in the castle. I want to go too.
First Step Sister: Oh! but you don’t have a dress to wear to the ball.
Second Step Sister: Oh! but you don’t have shoes to wear to the ball.
Step Mother (laughing): Ha ha!! You don’t even have a carriage to go to the ball.
Cinderella rushes up to her room crying. The Fairy Godmother visits Cinderella to check on her. ”
From here on, Yog wanted to pretend that he was Cinderella. So we played along.
Yog keeping his hands to his chest: Yog, ball!! (meaning Yog wants to go to the ball).
First Step Sister (Toyna): Oh! but you don’t have a dress to wear to the ball.
Second Step Sister (Sia): Oh! but you don’t have shoes to wear to the ball.
Step Mother (Me): Ha ha!! Cinderella you are Boy!
And we all burst out laughing.
Yog (rolling over with laughter, hugging himself): Yog, boy!!!
