The Night Visitor

One day in the little house with the long legs down by the creek... there was a loud noise in the middle of the night. Moon Girl opened her eyes in bed and stared into the darkness above her listening intently. She was trying to determine if the noises were an intruder and waited to hear any footsteps. There were no footsteps but a rummaging scratchy noise made her curious. So she slipped out of bed and crept into the kitchen to the back door.

How high's the water Mama?

One day in the little house with the long legs down by the creek...

the little old lady who lived next door to Moon Girl went to see how high the water was. It had recently flooded and so the little old lady and the little old man had become a little obsessed with checking how high the water was.
This particular day Moon Girl was having her morning tea on the back deck when she heard a loud SPLASH!
She looked up to see the little old lady walking back up the path. Her hair was all wet and she had hurt her arm too. The poor thing had fallen into the creek.

Although she was concerned that the little old lady was all right, Moon Girl couldn't help but giggle to herself just a little bit.
