Siren

Sometimes when people walk in front of us on the footpaths they walk slow.

Yesterday, when Mummy and I were on our way to buy food at Sainsbury's, we had 3 slow people walking in front of us. They just wouldn't get out of the way! I could tell that Mum was getting frustrated, but that she didn't want to say anything to them.

So I did.

I remembered watching all of the cars get out of the way for Police when they have their loud sirens on, so I thought I'd do the same thing. I grabbed the tray on my buggy, pulled myself up straight, and gave my best imitation of a siren. "Blahh!!" I yelled as loud as I could.

They turned around, saw me, and got right out of the way.

I was pretty pleased with myself. I sat back against my buggy backrest and quietly congratulated myself (at least loud enough for Mum to hear as well).

Mum apologized to the people as we went by (that's the British thing to do, I guess), but I could tell she was really pleased with me.

This is how I sit up when I want to look around at things. Or yell at people.
