A Questionable Toy for a Peculiar Baby

Six Word Photo Story Challenge: “Freestyle”

Oh, the sword?! Just ignore it.

In my July Six Word Story Challenge: “Cute Creatures” entry, A Gift from Botswana, I introduced everyone to Bizkits. She’s a doll I found in a storage room during a school enrichment program. I’d use her to entertain the children.

I mentioned in my director’s notes that along with having a pet she also carried a claymore — which is a sword. In conclusion I suggested that this “Freestyle” follow-up may be in the works.

Bizkits gained fame for giving the children unlimited belly laughs, yet those chuckles were often preceded or followed by this frequently asked question: Why does the baby have a sword?!

Can you guess my frequent response? (*)

Feel The Mite!
