I can't really remember when this started, but several years ago my dad started writing stories for his grandchildren. He called them, appropriately enough, "The Three Funny Monkeys". He would write about the adventures of Nottus (Sutton), Noskcaj (Jackson) and Gninnam (Manning). My brothers kids are the "Mo' Monkeys" - Mackie and Egag.
Anyway, it was not long before Sutton was writing "Three Funny Monkey" stories of her own. It has been a fun communication for she and her Pop and I thought I would share one of Sutton's stories with you all.
The Three Funny Monkeys Go To a Game
Once upon a time, there were three little monkeys, and their names were Nottus, Noskcaj and Gninnam. They lived in Nrubua. One day, the monkeys went to the Nrubua football game. When they go to their seats, the players were on the field practicing. They would be playing Amabala.
When the players kicked off the ball, everybody cheered. Nrubua received the ball and ran to the 30 yard line. On their 3rd down, they made a touchdown.
When it was halftime, the monkeys went and got some snacks. Nottus got popcorn and rootbeer. Noskcaj got chips and pepsi . Gninnam got pretzels and Dr. Pepper. Momma got a large coke and shared it with Dad.
When they went back to their seats, the ball was being hiked. The crowd cheered. Amabala had made a fumble and Auburn had gotten the ball!
He was going, going, they did it! Nrubua had won the game!
As they walked back to the car, all three of the monkeys were talking about the game all at once! But by the time they got home, all three were asleep!
