Once upon a time, Charlie visited his cousins named Rebecca, Andy, Anna and Emily. They lived together with his Aunt Marla and Uncle Andrew in a white house with blue shutters. Charlie loved being in the house with his cousins because there was so much to do. He spent hours wrestling with his cousin Anna. It looked very fierce, but they only hugged very tight and never once hurt each other. Charlie liked cousin Anna very much.
He spent all his meals and snacks sitting next to baby Mee-Mee (Emily). They shared a passion for blueberries and cheese sticks and escaping up the stairs alone. Sometimes Emily followed Charlie around and sometimes Charlie followed Emily around. Charlie liked cousin Emily very much.
He spent time outside in the bubbly pool with Andy. Andy gave his helicopter and dinosaur book to Charlie, along with lots of clothes he has outgrown. Charlie thinks the helicopter and dinosaur book are the best things he has ever owned. Cousin Andy knew just how to take care of Charlie so he wouldn’t get hurt and always had exactly the toy he wanted. Needless to say, Charlie likes cousin Andy very much.
Charlie played in a water balloon war outside with cousin Rebecca. When they were outside in the back yard together, she made sure he didn’t fall out of the wagon or get lost in the woods. Charlie likes his cousin Rebecca very much.
While Charlie was staying with his cousins, he did a lot of things for the first time. He drove an RV for the first time. He was so good at it that he only needed to use one finger.
Didn’t he do a great job parking it between all these trees?
He rode on a seat on the back of a bicycle for the first time. He loved it so much that he just kept laughing the whole time.
He went on a hike in the woods to visit a Pooh tree. He loved being outside and walking on the trail so much that he galloped and chortled as he went along.
He also fed a horse for the first time. That was a little scary, and he decided not to do it again!
And last, most importantly, he learned all the names of his cousins.
