Today was bow and windy's 10 year wedding anniversary, they met in high school and have been together for 20 years but only married for 10. Tonight they we're going for a weekend away and we're leaving the children with windy's mother spectrum.

Rainbow: I want to get mummy and daddy a present for their ani- ani-


Spectrum: for their anniversary?


Rainbow: *nods*


Spectrum: ok sweetie just let me put scootaloo to bed then we'll have a think about it.


Spectrum took scootaloo upstairs and put her in her cot, and kissed her forehead.


Spectrum: night night baby.


*back downstairs*


Spectrum: right kiddo what kind of present are you wanting to get mummy and daddy?


Rainbow: *thinks* mmm don't know grandma.


Spectrum: that's ok, why don't you make them a gift? That way it'll be extra special.


Rainbow: *excitedly* yeah let's do that!


Spectrum: *chuckles* shhh we'll do it tomorrow dashie, but right now it's time for bed.


They went upstairs to rainbows bedroom and after a quick story rainbow was ready for sleep.


Rainbow: night grandma!


Spectrum: *kisses rainbows forehead* night sweetie.


*the next morning*


Rainbow: grandma can we make mummy and daddy's present today?


Spectrum: we sure can! First we've got to think what it is we're going to make.


Rainbow: *thinks for a second* can we make them cookies?!


Spectrum: *smiles* yes I think that's a lovely idea! We need to go to the shop and get the ingredients,
Why don't you go and put your shoes on and we'll get going.


*after the shopping trip*


Rainbow: grandma I don't know how to make cookies.


Spectrum: I know sweetie that's why I'm going help you.


Spectrum weighed up the ingredients (i don't want too look up a recipe) and let rainbow add them to the bowl, then allowed both girls to have a go at mixing. Next it was time to put them in the oven, once they were cooked and out of the oven, they had to be left to cook down before they could be decorated.


Rainbow: what now grandma?


Spectrum: we have to let them cool for a while dashie then they can be decorated.


Rainbow: *whining* how long will that take?


Spectrum: not too long dashie, why don't you go and play whilst I clean up?


Rainbow: ok.


*20 minutes later*


Spectrum: rainbow the cookies are ready to decorate!


Rainbow: yay!


On the table was all kinds of sweets and goodies, as well as icing to stick them the cookies with. As spectrum was getting the cookies and icing ready, rainbow was helping herself to the different kinds of sweets that were on offer.


Spectrum: *chuckling* rainbow if you eat all the sweets there won't be any left for the cookies.


Rainbow: sorry grandma.


Spectrum: it's ok sweetie.


After the cookies were decorated rainbow was in need of a wash, so after a quick bath it was time for bed.


Rainbow: do you think mummy and daddy will like the cookies grandma?


Spectrum: I think they'll love them dashie, night night.


Rainbow: night night.


*time skip to when bow and windy are back home*


Rainbow: *runs up to her parents* mummy! Daddy!


Windy whistles: *picks rainbow up* hey sweetie have you had fun with grandma?


Rainbow: *nods excitedly* got something for you!


Windy whistles: for me and daddy?!


Rainbow: *nods*


Spectrum: hey welcome home!


Windy: hi mum, how have they been?


Spectrum: good as gold right dashie? *strokes rainbows hair*


Rainbow: grandma present?


Spectrum: oh yes of course rainbows got a little present for you both, do you want to go and get it dashie?


Rainbow goes to fetch the cookies which are now fully decorated and have been wrapped in cellophane (plastic wrap) and gave them to bow and windy.


Bow hothoof: did you make these dashie?!


Rainbow: yeah grandma helped! Do you like them?


Windy whistles: we love them baby, and we love them even more because you made them.


After spectrum went home it was the girls bedtime, they put scootaloo to bed first and then went into rainbows room.


Rainbow: can I have a cookie mummy?


Windy whistles: you can tomorrow sweetie, bedtime now though ok?


Rainbow: ok mummy.


After bow and windy both said goodnight to rainbow they kissed her forehead and left the room.


Bow hothoof: night dashie.


Windy whistles: we love you.


Rainbow: *tiredly* love you too.
