If I Were King/Queen
Jeffrey (age 6) and I read the story of Esther this morning, and then played a word game. He filled in the following blanks with his own answers. I thought it might be fun for us, too. If you were King/Queen, where would you live? What laws would you make?
Jeffrey's answers: (And the questions)
If I were King, I would live in San Francisco, in a castle.
If I were King, I would wear a red coat, a crown and flip-flops.
If I were King, I would eat China food.
If I were King, what would I do all day? Sit in my chair and eat all kinds of Chinese food.
If I were King, I would make these laws: To never not praise the King; make a rule to love rabbits and lions.
What say ye? What would you do if you could do anything you liked?
