I have been in Arizona only one day but I have already heard 6.5 bedtime stories (Taylor&#8217;s bedtime story only counts as half because it only consisted of &#8220;shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh&#8221;). This has however\u00a0stirred enough creativity within me to create a short bedtime story of my own. So without further ado here is what I am calling &#8220;A Bedtime Story&#8221;&#8230;.<br \/>\nThere once was boy name BK and he lived in a little blue room with a little blue blue bed.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/bedajbefore1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1130\" title=\"bedajbefore1\" src=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/bedajbefore1-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAs one can see BK was a for the most part a happy boy, but he had a little problem.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/bedajbeforeshort.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1131\" title=\"bedajbeforeshort\" src=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/bedajbeforeshort-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nYou see his bed was too small. What was BK to do?! He called in his magic mommy and she found that not only was BK&#8217;s bed too small, but it had holes in it too!<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/beforeajholebed.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1133\" title=\"beforeajholebed\" src=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/beforeajholebed-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nMagic mommy could fix many things, but she could not fix this problem. Knowing this made poor little BK sad.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/pensiveweb.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1135\" title=\"pensiveweb\" src=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/pensiveweb-188x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"188\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nJust then came a magical piggy.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/pigstory.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1136\" title=\"pigstory\" src=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/pigstory-300x227.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThe magical piggy said &#8220;don&#8217;t get all wiggly, just make a magic wishy.&#8221;<br \/>\nJust then a new bed arrived. It&#8217;s fit was just right.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/newbedmattress.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1134\" title=\"newbedmattress\" src=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/newbedmattress-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n&#8220;Oh my goodness!&#8221; declared BK. &#8220;My fairy Godmother must of heard my wish!&#8221; Indeed she had, and even though BK was as bright as can be, she even threw in a magic lamp for the magic piggy.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/ajlightroom.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1132\" title=\"ajlightroom\" src=\"http:\/\/johnpedroza.com\/blog1\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/ajlightroom-300x224.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"224\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAnd so it came to be that BK got a new bed and the magic piggy got a new magic lamp, and of course all three of them lived: Happily Ever After.
