Soap Bubbles

Posted in by Camoboy

 

On a warm summer day in 1834 a mother and her 2 children were outside making soap. There was Grace a little girl about 5 and Elizabeth the eldest who was 10. As they were making soap Elizabeth got an idea. 

 

"Mother" she said, " May we show little Grace how to make soap bubbles?" 

 

"Alright you may, but mind not to get soap in your eyes".

 

So they started making bubbles. They made small ones and large ones round ones and ones that looked like they had been ran over by a caravan heading West. Little Grace was amazed by the bubbles and had a lot of fun racing after the bubbles.

 

"What makes the bubbles fly like the birds or drop like a stone?" asked little Grace. 

 

"Well" said Mother "Its kind of complicated, But let's just say that God was very amazing when He made bubbles".

 

"Yes let's just say that." said little Grace. Her mother rocked her untill she fell asleep. Then they went inside and Elizabeth told their Papa how much fun they had with bubbles.     

 

(Note:  This was an assignment from Primary Language Lessons by Emma Serl.  The picture was provided and Camoboy was asked to write a story explaining what was happening in the picture.  The painting is by Elizabeth Gardner Bouguereau.)

Camoboy, I really like that story.
It made me think of when my children were younger. They loved bubbles so much!
