Friday 55 Flash Fiction #8 January Sales

January Sales


How much was it? he asked.




Oh it was a lot less than you might think.


Yes, but we don’t need it yet, why did you buy it now?


Because we decided we want a baby as soon as possible after we get married and it was in the sale!




But Amy, we’re only 13!

Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by susiestheboss but is hosted again this week by g-man.

Cute! I like it. *giggles* At least they're in agreement about their futures, even if they are getting a little ahead of themselves.

I loved this one. That's a typical girl/woman...going ga-ga over ikkle, cute baby clothes! (I'd have loved to have had a girl as well...I often look and go 'ahhhhh.')

Happy New Year by the way...I know I'm a little late, but it's been one of those weeks! x

Akelamalu said...

Welcome Flash, and how nice of you to say so.:)

Dan stop being silly, or I'll smack your legs!

Akelamalu said...

I know what you mean about having a little girl Miss U, but I'm lucky I have a grandaughter now! :) Nice to see you back, hope everything is OK?

It would be nice if Amy had a doll it would fit.

Some folks will buy anything if it is on sale!
