"on the fourth day of Christmas my true love gave to me four memorable science books."
It was almost Christmas yet again and amelia stepped intoan empty room they had in their large home to place some things in there from the summer when she tripped over stacks of books in boxes some haddent even been open.
"Derlbert get in here!" She shouted to her husband of six years. "Yes darling? " He said making quick to get to her. "These book have to go." "But Amelia I love these books." "Delbert they look like they just camef rom the book store." "I ook care of them!" "They still have pastic on them!"
"but I..." "Delbert I mean it pick you a few but thats all!" Withthat she stomped out he knew she was serious. So solomly he sank on his knees and went through the moutains of books.
After about three hours Amelia began to worry if he accually got lost in the clutter and went to check on him. "Delbert...darling?" "I've done it." he declared with a hint of pride. "Done what ?" "I went through all of these books and picked out four." "Why four?" she wondered if there was a special reason with Delbert there always was.
"Our four ,four year old children." He smiled. "So each book represents one of them...why?" He picked on up and opened it , "This one is stained from , Ben's first spoon of baby food , And this one is from Calli's first coloring , this is from when Halli tried to read the pages are missing and this one is torn from Alli's teething and-" "delbert darling I get it. You may keep them." She kissed him on his nose.
And heres to many more memorable books.
A few days alter it was Christmas day the kids were 1aring into there gifts when Amelia handed something to her husband. "Amelia?" whats this?" "Well you wont know if you don't open it will you." He open the box up and gasped inside it was four brand new copies of his orginal books the kids had ruined.
