The Story of Gingerlocks and the Three (or so) Bowls
February 3rd, 2007 by SuzanneOnce upon a time, there was a little boy named Evan with ginger-colored hair. One morning, he went for his usual walk into the kitchen to see what he could find to play with. To his delight, he came upon a cupboard full of mixing bowls of many sizes.
“Hmmm, what could I do with all of these?” he thought. Maybe I should sit in them.
“This chair is too small,” he thought. So he tried another one…
“This one is bigger but still too small. Maybe it will work better as a hat,” he thought.
“This hat is too big.” By this time, Evan was beginning to feel a bit tired, so he decided to rest…
“This bowl is too hard for sleeping in,” thought Evan. “But surely these bowls are good for something! I know just the thing…”
“I could hit them with wooden spoons and make lots of noise! It’s JUST RIGHT!” he exclaimed.
And he lived happily ever after.

Oh, Evan, you are so cute and funny! And your momma is very clever to narrate your activities so well and catch you in all these precious moments. Much love from Nana!

P.S. How did he have time to get a hair cut while testing out all those bowls?
