I'm Not a Horse, I'm a Hornless Unicorn (67/365)

Scene 3
MOMMY, ALICE, and IZZY are laying on ALICE'S bed in the dark, staring up at the ceiling.

ALICE: Mommy, let's pretend that the ceiling is the sky and we're looking at stars, ok? What kind of stars do YOU see?

MOMMY: Ummm, I see...

ALICE: Mommy, THAT one is a kitty cat.

MOMMY: Oh, well I see a smiley face over there!

ALICE: Oh, OH, now I see a dinosaur. And look, Mommy! There's a donkey!

IZZY: SQUEEEEEEE!

Mommy: I think I see one that looks like a diamond.

ALICE: I see a horse!! And now it turned into a unicorn, my favorite!

MOMMY: Well, that is...

ALICE: And look, that one is Daddy and Izzy and they are sitting on the couch and they are laughing at Grandma's face!! HA HA HA HA HA HA! That's so funny!

MOMMY: (through laughter and tears) My, that's one elaborate constellation!


She didn't say WHICH Grandma - you're safe for now, Cindy.
