Ghost Ears - a story by Maya

The other night as Maya and I were getting ready for bed Maya decided she needed to tell me a ghost story.

And she let me write it down as she told it!! YAY for that! :)

I just had to share it so here it is....

Ghost Ears by Maya Gordon

Once upon a time there was a big Ghost Ears.
Big big huge ears and something happened.
Ghost Ears wanted to eat somebody.
They wanted to eat a girl and she was named Lilly.

(a pause to show me her Ghost Ears shadow puppet on the wall. At the same time she was making eating sounds with her shadow puppet)

He ate Lilly up.

The End.

Okay, seriously, tell me that is not the cutest thing ever!! I love this girl!

What's even more perfect is that the morning after I was checking out this week's MFT Bubble Bin and saw the Who's That Ghost? Flopsey set. Maya checked it out and told me this is exactly what Ghost Ears looks like. This set is for sure going on my list of must-buys for when I am able. MFT - please don't sell out before then, okay!! :) That image is perfect for the layout that will be coming.
