GallopinGiggles series!
Elsie the 8th
HorseFeather's Kingdom
Introduces GallopinGiggles
It all started one sunny morning,the dew was still on the flowers and all the residents of HorseFeather's Kingdom were busy doing their normal morning chores or relaxing eating bagels and jelly...it was so very peaceful...King NaBumpkin was enjoying a apple turnunder on his balcony,very yummy...when out of no where the sounds of giggles came high up in the tops of the beautiful blue spruces.One by one they filled the valley,it was so contagious that King NaBumpkin started giggling,before to long ,his Queen couldn't help but giggle from the engaging sounds from the tops of the trees.In between giggles the King motioned to his gardener,who was also bent over giggling,The King said .."Albert go investigate those trees".. ,and the King broke out into giggles again..The gardener made his way through the forrest and found the tallest blue spruce he had ever seen...slowly inbetween giggles he made his way up to the very top..the breeze was gentle but he still could feel the limb sway back and forth...that really made him giggle...in amongst the limbs he spied a beautiful nest,very well made indeed...and in the nest were the most adorable babies,they looked like young foals,not IiddyBiddy's or SillyFilly's they were much to small.
He couldn't stop giggling the more he giggled the more the baby's would wiggle and giggle.
He gathered one up in his arms and she was so warm and soft and cuddly.
A crowd had gathered at the bottom of the grand spruce,everyone giggling and holding their tummys from the giggles..."bring her down!" yelled one of the village bakers,"they must be hungry"...gradually the gardener descended down towards the bottom with his shirt bulging out,filled with the delightful mysterious creatures...everyone greeted them and hugged and held them.
When they felt such happiness in holding and cuddling washed over them,what a wonderful feeling.
The King named them the GallopinGiggles and had special cradles made up for each one...the gardener could have swore he only gathered 3,but looking into the crowd of giggling faces he counted 20 sweet faces of GallopinGiggles.....scratching his head,he placed each sweet Giggle in his crib of sweet hay,they fell to sleep very easily.
He placed name tags as all the villagers helped give each one a name...The gardener name the first one he held RaspBerry,she looked up and gave him a nicker and smile and fell fast to sleep,Then the baker placed the 2nd lil GallopinGiggles in his cradle and named him BoogieBlu for his blue mane and tail and cute freakles.Then the local shopkeeper placed her little bundle in the crib of straw and decided she was the color of Ginger and Rose and thus named her GingerRose.Then King's Royal pie maker held in her arms her bundle ,a unicorn GallopinGiggle and she gave her a beautiful name Zetta and tucked inside Zetta's blanket was her very special friend Taffy,they looked after eachother and the pie maker gently laid her bundle in the soft straw crib after a soft kiss on Zetta's velvety nose....Around the corner the dressmaker made her way towards the row of GallopinGiggle's cribs,she was dressed in a elegant yellow dress and topped off apon her beautiful red hair a bonnet that she wore with pride,Flowers trimmed the brim and the bonnet seem to take on a life of it's own,as it started wiggling and jumping about..the dressmaker tried hard to keep it from falling off her head...when to everyone's surprise a cute pink nose peeked out...The dressmaker said"I have another bundle for you" as she giggled trying to arrange her bonnet,she turned it upside down and Lizzy gave a sweet nicker..Elliot held on tight,as they placed the bonnet in the awaiting crib.Everyone giggled at the sweet pair...everyone seemed to drift off to sleep peacefully,but soon a happy sound came drifting in from the cobblestone path leading from the woods,a jolly roundface fellow with a bright red flannel shirt holding a bundle in one arm and a axe in the other..quite intimidating had it not been for the happy song he was singing as he trod along towards the door of the nursery.Up popped Meg's head as she looked at the rows of straw filled cribs..the woodcutter placed Meg in a crib to his liking..patted Meg's smiling head,she was so excited to see all her brothers and sisters..I do believe the GallopinGiggles found a welcomed home among all the happy residents of HorseFeather's Kingdom...all the giggling had put a huge smile on everyones face....it was indeed a very interesting day for all.Who couldn't use a giggle these days,right?
Guess What?? Yep another GallopinGiggles has come to join us...And her name is Elsie.
While the gardener was gathering as many GallopinGiggles as he could manage..Elsie climbed up a limb looking back and giggling she is very adventurous and full of spunk. She climbs to the very top of the big blue spruce and started to sway back and forth and the farther she swayed almost to King NanBumpkin's Balcony..and she just giggled all the more. King NanBumpkin caught sight of this tiny bundle of white with gold wings and blue freakles and giggling and pointing he shouted for Albert the Royal Gardner "ALBERRRTTT!"yelled the King.
Elsie waved to the King playfully and swung to the other side weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! and Albert caught sight of the tiny little filly...Albert was working in the garden and was holding a big basket. Albert started running frantically back and forth.. to catch Elsie and then he joined Elsie in her giggles...all of a sudden as the top of the blue spruce swung back towards the gardner she leap and her wings fluttered and she drifted right into Albert's basket...she hugged Albert and they both giggled,also with relief that Elsie was safe.
Another GallopinGiggles joins us at HorseFeather's Kingdom.
