The name Sophia means wise. My 2nd daughter seemed wise to me from the moment I laid eyes on her. She is so innocent, she exudes wisdom without even trying.
Here is one of her recent stories. I found it jotted down on a folded up piece of paper. She loves to draw and write. I hope she grows up to be a famous author/illustrator. Or a non-famous one. Either way she'll be o.k. with it. Keep reading and you will see why.
On the top fold of this little homemade book it has the book's title: "The Small Prisus." That's "The Small Princess" for those of you that don't speak childrenese. O.k. I admit it, maybe her wisdom could be spread to the spelling department someday. (Oh I better not forget to spellcheck this post)
Here is the story:
And the last line....the clencher.

Here is the story:
"Once upon a time there was a prisus (at least she misspells consistently) in a
far away kingdom Pompae. (She got the place from The Magic Treehouse, I am sure) She had a small kingdom."
And the last line....the clencher.
"She was o.k. with that."
Don't you wish we could all be so wise?
lol that is precious!
ReplyDeletehugs to you
That is awesome! She really is wise.
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't been around. I read you via my feed and I'm too lazy to come over and comment.
ReplyDeleteSweet Sophia! That is a classic and something you'll have to keep telling her so she'll believe it and be okay with it!
ReplyDeleteShe sounds very wise to me...
ReplyDeleteI love the matter of fact-ness.
'She was ok with that'
It cracked me up. Ü
ToOdLeS.
YES... but fyi being wise doesn't mean you spell well. :0)
ReplyDeleteSeriously. to be okay with that.
ReplyDeleteWhatever that is.
I love Sophia.
Is that a hammer in your lap?
I sure do love you Ali!
ReplyDeleteI love that little girl. I almost wish shw would never grow up but I know she is going to grow up to be even more awesomer(new word).
ReplyDeleteI love Sophia! What a great story. Some of my favorite things are to read a young child's' story, their drawings and to spy secretly when they play- it is amazing the imaginations and hilarious things they come up with.
ReplyDeleteWe are thinking about either "Levi Dennis" or "Carter Dennis" for our boy...neither of which have a great *meaning* to their name...Gosh, Carter means "cart driver"...does that translate modernly to Pizza Deliver Guy? ...hmmm future looks bright! :D
I love this story, and I love your picture!!!
ReplyDeleteHey Alice, she is really smart. I hope one day I get to read her books and stories. We miss you too. I know Jesse has his two month dr visit next monday. Henry is totally growing on me.
ReplyDeleteShe is the sweetest, sometimes the most qiet ones are the most secure.
ReplyDeletei love it! hey, just get me a kingdom, and I'll be ok with that too! LOL
ReplyDeleteKid stories & kid art are among my FAVORITE-IST of things.
ReplyDeleteThese last two posts are amazing. Thanks for sharing the insights!
ReplyDeleteI love it! Very wise. We all need to remember at times to be Ok with what we have and to recognize our blessings. Yes, I can see her as a great author or maybe having her own advice column...
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this story.
ReplyDelete"And she was ok with that..."
How awesome is Sophia?? Love your girls Alice -- each and every one of them! :)
And I'm also glad that she gets her spelling from the same dictionary as Rachel...
