The Stone Girl

Tonight you are in for a rare surprise. A story that I have written down. But in my defense, it was originally a story I came up on the spot for bedtime a long time ago. I liked it so much I decided to write it down and give it some polish. I hope you like it!

Story-Go-Round: Mabel the Flying Cow

Story-Go-Round: Mabel the Flying Cow

The kids were jealous of me stealing the spotlight, so we did a Story-Go-Round, where we took turns telling a story. I'm beginning to wonder if I made a very big mistake...

The Weirdest Story Ever

The Weirdest Story Ever

Hope you all are EXTRA tired tonight! It might help make this story land a little better, I asked all three kids for different story requests thinking I would pick one, but...I couldn't choose...which resulted in a story about emojis, a pirate crew with dragons, sprites and sock puppets, and last but not least, evil supervillain stone statues. How did I possibly spin a tale with such an a la carte menu? I'll let you be the judge 😜

Back to the Future (of Hyrule): An Ocarina Story Part 2

Back to the Future (of Hyrule): An Ocarina Story Part 2

Hey everybody! This is part 2 of my story that might be considered as an incredibly uninformed alternate version of the Legend of Zelda's Ocarina in Time! You are warned (again if you have already listened to Part 1 haha). Come and enjoy! It's beginning to take a life of its own! Which is always a good thing.

Back to the Future (of Hyrule): an Ocarina Story Part 1

Back to the Future (of Hyrule): an Ocarina Story Part 1

It's time to get our Zelda on! Nothing gets me sleepy like a little time in Hyrule, don't you agree? Actually, I am not an expert on Zelda games, but since my son is an expert-in-training, I was asked to tell a story about the Ocarina of Time. I've never played it, so my apologies in advance. Please don't cancel me Zelda fans! I'm just winging it over here, as most parents can relate 😉. Enjoy!
