I love love love to watch my girls play PRETEND. Whenever they play PRETEND, their imagination just goes WILD…oh the stories they come up with! They are so innocent, carefree, imaginative, creative, and funny.
On this day, Thelma and Louise decided to play Jungle Girls that live in Avatarland.
Pretend this is our house and we live up in the trees.
Pretend we eat from the flowers.
Pretend the neighbor’s cat is a beast and we have to hunt him down.
(Note that no animals were harmed or injured while playing PRETEND.
Sharon and Ozzy, you can rest easy that your cat is not being taunted by my girls.)
Pretend I killed so and so because of such and such…
The storyline changes so fast and on the spot that I can’t keep up at all!!
Pretend our legs don’t get cold. Pretend we fly on sticks. Pretend these are our arrows. Etc. Etc. Etc.
Pretend this it’s dark now, even though it’s not and we have to go back to our “house”.
Our tarp has been destroyed so we took a fitted sheet and ta-da! New roof!
Of course, this is just temporary.
Thelma decides to decorate the “house” to make it more beautiful.
Jungle girls want a house with style too!
Here they are “eating” some berries they collected for dinner.
It’s actually quite relaxing in their house.
These are their “sleeping quarters”.
My Jungle Girl knows how to fly too.
I am really glad that my kids get to be kids and really enjoy their youth.
