Kate Is Like A...

Once when my sister Clarissa was in the hospital a bunch of my siblings and I went to visit her. To entertain ourselves, and her, but mostly ourselves, one of my older brothers invented a game called Clarissa Is Like an Apple Because... The game involved saying why Clarissa was like various kinds of fruits. We all enjoyed it hugely, except for Clarissa, of course. Anyway, today I played a variation of this game with K. The difference is I compared her to different animals (plus these make sense. If I remember right, a lot of the ones with Clarissa made no sense like Clarissa is like an apple because she is red on the outside and crunchy on the inside.  I guess there could be a deeper meaning behind that, but I doubt it.) Anyhow, here are K's.

-K is like a turtle because she pulls her head inside her blankets and her arms and legs inside her clothes. (She can't do the arms and legs as much anymore because her clothes are not 5 times too big).
-K is like a cow because she likes to spit up her food and then eat it again.
-K is like a horse because she has long eyelashes. (She also used to make horse noises all the time, not anymore though).
-K is like a parrot because she falls asleep when we cover up her head.
-K is like a cat because she scratches.
-K is like a puppy because she whines and whimpers.
-K is like a snake because she always has her tongue out.
-K is like a fish because she blows bubbles.
-K is like a pig because she grunts and snorts, especially when eating.
-K is like a kitten (or any other cute baby animal since Ian doesn't think kittens are cute) because she is adorable.

  1. Good job, I am not nearly so creative. What baby animal does Ian think is adorable anyway?
