First proper sentence

At the library this morning, Ivy was running away and hiding between the shelves. She'd pop back to grin, then disappear again.  The third time, Hazel pointed and said "Ivy gone".

I count that as a sentence - it has a subject and a verb, right?

Then I realised that each time she disappeared, Ivy was running over to the entrance and setting off the automatic door. Luckily she just stood there and watched the workmen, instead of racing out into the building site that is the front of the library.

  1. A red-letter day! Hazel spoke a parsable sentence, if lacking a main verb, and Ivy played games! It's worthy of a blog, as is every little less-amazing they say and do. xxxxx Nanna
