Uncle Scotty and THE Cottage
Once upon a time, while the children were napping, Mommy Cook continued her world-wide search for the perfect playhouse for her little Cooks. She stumbled through a thicket of Ebay berries and found the perfect little home lying behind it. There was too much time ticking before this perfect little cottage could be claimed, so Mommy continued her search and found that the exact cottage was also hiding on Old Man Craig's special list. She quickly dialed the number she found on the list, sent word and money to the owners and the home was theirs.

As these stories usually go, the plot thickened. The special cottage Mommy had obtained was a whole other world away, 3 hours to be exact, but very close to Uncle Scotty's house. Now, Uncle Scotty was a noble and brave man, a hero indeed. He returned the message he'd received from Mommy and agreed to pick up this cottage. It also just so happened (this IS a fairy tale after all) that Uncle Scotty was already headed in the direction of the Cook house in far off Kansas City the very next day to give a grand speech to the townspeople of the town of farmasee. He saddled his grand sequoia, rode into the night and secured the little cottage for the long ride ahead. He awoke the next morning, made his grand entrance into Missoura and delivered this special home. Meanwhile, Mommy Cook and her two little ones were out visiting their animal friends with their Auntie. When they returned to their home, they were overjoyed to find Daddy Cook in the backyard putting the finishing touches on their new cottage. Sister Cook was especially happy to hospitably answer the ringing of the doorbell on her own little cottage. She welcomed visitors into her new home for the rest of the day and they all lived happily ever after...
until the sun went down and they had to come inside to go to bed.
