It was soooooo out of character for me to be willing to post something on my blog that I had written only 24 hours earlier. But that is something I am trying to work on in the new year...being more free to learn and grow and sometimes fail. So thank you for giving me the opportunity! :)Amy Dixonhttp://writingamillion.tumblr.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1007703247358638748.post-47881390704248347732012-02-13T22:43:22.198-05:002012-02-13T22:43:22.198-05:00Susanna, thanks for having this writing challenge....Susanna, thanks for having this writing challenge.

Please enjoy!<br /><br /><br />Max’s Princess<br /><br />Max was in love with Samara. She was his princess. He watched Winnie-the-Pooh with her, and he saved her a seat and fed her popcorn.<br /><br />At school, they sat next to each other every day, and shared all the best crayons. At the park, they both stopped swinging when one felt sick. And when they lost their two front teeth, they compared gap-toothed grins and funny-sounding “eth-es.”<br /><br />Samara loved Max. She told her mommy and all her friends that she wanted to marry him when they grew up.<br /><br />But Bobby was in love with Samara, too. He liked her pretty dresses and her silly laugh. He wanted to be her Valentine.<br /><br />Samara was conflicted.<br /><br />“I love Max, and Max loves me,” she told her mommy. “But Bobby loves me too, and he wants to be my Valentine. So they have to take turns.”<br /><br />Then she thought a little more.<br /><br />“But really, I love Max more. He came to my party, and he gives me better hugs. He shouldn’t have to share me with Bobby. I want to be Max’s princess, not Bobby’s Valentine.” And she smiled, pleased with her decision, and showing off the gap-toothed grin that Max loved best.Susanna Leonard Hillhttp://susannahill.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
