This is so amusing. I figured it had to do with some kid abducting the missing GI Joes. A really fun approach and the illustration is great. Best of luck in the contest. Marilyn

Thanks for your fun review!!
Comment from Darlene Franklin
Oh, how fun. Kidnapping your sister's doll. You could consider it a compliment - the highest compliment a girl could give - choosing your commander as her doll's boyfriend . . . And then perhaps Barbie could become involved in a dangerous spy mission on his behalf, and you could take her for that . . . Oh, the possibilities!

lol. So glad this one got your imagination going this morning -- thank you for reading and reviewing!
Comment from Phyllis Stewart
LOL! This is verrry clever. You had me fooled until the very end when I realized these were kids playing with toys. I kind of wondered why you didn't choose a real, human officer for your picture, but even that hint didn't give it away! :)

Oh, Phyllis -- thank you, THANK YOU!! I am so very glad you enjoyed my mischievous little Landon and his kidnapping scheme!! Thank you for those lovely stars and have a wonderful week ahead!!

Good luck with this entry. I like the twist with the children and the toys. Feeding Barbie to the dog is a good threat. The rivalry between siblings never ends.

Comment from Sallyo
Great fun! Of course, the picture gave away the point... up to a point, but the story is - er - engaging. Just one thing... telling mom! telling Mom!
That last line knocks it out of the ring.

Comment from Dawn Munro
Hahahahaha. Terms of engagement for sure! Siblings certainly do have some serious "terms of engagement"and even though I guessed what was coming, I loved every word.This was flawlessly written, and so much fun!

Thank you, Beautiful Lady -- glad you enjoyed this bit of fun! ;) I couldn't take any more 'dark writes' and had to lighten up the place... :) ;) I didn't check in on you because you had said your were doing some work on your autobiography and trying to spend more time with church friends (and not the computer - lol!). I do hope you're doing all right up there ... so good to see your face there!! ;) :) Take care and enjoy the weekend! ;)

You're very welcome. :) (Been down with a terrible cold that keeps refreshing itself, actually... *sigh*)

What an imagination! You did fool me into thinking that it was a real life situation. Very clever. Very good imagery emerged. Wishing you all the very best in the contest.

This is some intriguing story. Read it a couple of times to show how I liked it. Wait, how come Landon and his Sister are enemies? Or am I missing something.... So she kidnapped her boyfriend from her brother's camp... Lol.
Quite an interesting read. Thumbs up
