Introducing ...Princessess

We did have one skipped night with no stories, which would have been a welcome respite, if it weren't for the one-year old's desire to party rock into the wee hours of the morning.

Three Little Pigs appear appear to be SOP according to Maja. I can certainly do this now with my eyes closed, and my head on a pillow.

David was a bit harder. Nothing came to me during the day, so while I did the mandatory backstory, "David the Gnome lives with his wife in a tree in the woods, he has a squirrel as a friend....." I took the two major themes: David helps people, and Maja has been talking about (but not pretending to be) a princess.

David the Gnome was walking through the woods when he came upon a crying princess *sheer glee comes to Maja's face*. The princess' carriage had a broken wheel and they didn't have an extra one. David offered to take the princess home for dinner, and he would have his friend Kenny the Gnome take a look at the wheel and see if he could fix it.

David, David's wife (still no name) and the unnamed princess had a great time eating dinner, playing games, and having a sleepover. The next morning Kenny the Gnome had fixed the wheel, and the princess could go on her way, but not before giving an open invitation for David to visit her kingdom anytime he wanted.
