A wish comes true (Bedtime Story) When Millie and Billy woke up the next morning and looked out of their bedroom window they could see that their wish had come true. Everything outside was covered in a blanket of snow. They couldn’t wait to go out to play. When they did, mummy made sure they wrapped up warm in heavy coats, bobble hats, scarves, mittens, and thick socks inside their Wellington boots. Billy was the first one out in the garden. Millie followed soon after but as soon as she got out of the door she was hit by a snowball. “I’ll get you for that, Billy” she giggled and before he knew it a snowball landed on top of his head. “Right, Millie, you asked for it,” Billy laughed, lobbing another snowball in her direction. They had a great snowball fight. Then they set to work and made a snowman. They made a big snowball for the snowman’s body and a smaller one for his head. Mummy let Millie and Billy have one of daddy’s old hats to go on the snowman’s head, an old scarf to go round his neck and a carrot to make his nose. She took them down to the garden shed where they found a box of sea shells and pebbles. They used these to make the eyes and mouth of the snowman and also his coat buttons. The snowman looked great. There had been something else in the shed, tucked in the corner, which had really taken Millie and Billy’s interest as well. It was a sledge. After lunch, mummy, Millie and Billy took the sledge out of the shed. They made their way through the gate at the side of the garden into the sloping field beyond. Mummy waited at the bottom of the slope as Millie and Billy pulled the sledge to its top. It was hard work pulling the sledge up the slope but it was worth it. They both sat on the sledge as it whizzed down. What a thrill! That night Millie and Billy were snuggled up in bed, having a sleepy chat. They agreed that waking up to find snow on the ground had been a wonderful wish come true and so had been the whole day – It had been fantastic. Millie and Billy drifted off to sleep soon after that and they both dreamt lovely snowy dreams
