I'm a big kid, now! LOL reminds me of the commercial where he can pull up his pul-ups so he's a big kid. It's interesting thinking what a little kid thinks of like Santa Claus or about being bad and good. I like what he thinks about his sister, the little princess who gets taken care of the minute she starts crying. But, when he screams, his mother tells him he's a big boy and can wait. Cute story! Good luck with the contest!

Yes, you are a big boy now. What a wonderfully written story and I love the child's POV.

Good luck in the contest!
Have a great day and God bless.

Well, It was a good write and a really good bit of thinking from a young boy's point of view on having a new baby sister. The end was upsetting I must say and am not sure how a little one would be able to put himself into a working washer-anyway...not a story for children.

A very well-written heartfelt story about the little boy who seems to struggle with all the things the grown ups are talking about him and his behaviour when he becomes a big boy and his little sister gets all the attention.

That was an amazing story and I hope you can write more stories and I also could not stop reading it and I hope you get the recognition you need for this story.

Sincerely, Ayan

(Typos: boys troubles s/b boy's; they'll call me a B Y s/b B A B Y) The narrator sounds credible as a child--disturbing twist at the end--not clear on why/when the SS came into the scene. Good luck. Cheers. LIZ

'but I can feed them to the dog anymore' Maybe you meant 'can't' in the boy's ramblings?

'She is all wriggles and is full of... oh no, I can't say that word, it's a bad word.' Cute

'I am only three years old, but mom says I am a Big Boy now. I think she needs glasses; I am the smallest kid in my group at daycare.' This line is GREAT!!!

Wow!! The ending was not the funny one I wanted.

Good luck in the 'From a child's point of view' contest.

That was quite the twist at the end. I didn't see that coming at all. I have to say for me personally I wasn't impressed with the green cursive font, it was hard to read. Good luck in the contest.

I'm surprised that a kid would use the word "injections."

You did a good job with your contest entry, Mystery Author. I understood the POV of the big boy. Your lines flow smoothly with good imagery. The ending is a little abrupt that the police and SS arrived with little explanation (maybe the boy didn't know why and that's all he could think to say).

May I suggest:
but I can (can't) feed them to the dog anymore, 'cause God sees me, and I want to be his Little Angel.

I believe another word could be used of 'injections;, too. A 3 year old would not know that word.
Best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan
