The Twelve Pixies - Part Fourteen by Joanne Morris Okano

     The family sang a happy song, for they were all glad to see each other again.
     Fa la la la la
     What a happy day!
      Mother's here to play.
      What a happy day!
     The young pixies all did somersaults and cartwheels, something which I greatly admire, since I have never been able to do cartwheels.  Just as the song said, their mother played games (ball games) with them and Grandmother watched.  When they had finished, mother suggested that the Uncle next door and his wife get some much needed rest from looking after Grandmother by going on a three week holiday, while she (Mother) looked after her instead.  The young pixies all said, "Hooray!"  and off the Uncle and Auntie went to the Costa Brava to swim and enjoy life.
