Good evening beautiful souls and welcome to tonight's reading of the three little pigs. So finding yourself in a comfortable position, Stretching out and taking up space, Maybe stretching your arms above your head and taking a big long stretch and take a big big long yawn, Just signaling to your body, Your mind, That it's time to rest. There's nothing more for you to do today, You can put the to-do list down until tomorrow and just bringing your awareness fully now into the present moment, Just arriving here fully present in this space, Allowing your body to relax and just bringing awareness to your breath, Not looking to change it in any way, Just noticing how it is and when you're ready dear souls, We will begin with our story. Once upon a time there was an old mother pig who had three little pigs and not enough food to feed them, So when they were old enough she sent them out into the world to seek their fortunes. The first little pig was very lazy, He didn't want to work at all and he built his house out of straw. The second little pig worked a little bit harder but he was quite lazy too and he built his house out of sticks. Then they sang and danced and played together for the rest of the day. The third little pig, He worked hard all day and built his house with bricks. It was a sturdy house complete with a fine fireplace and a chimney and looked like it could withstand the strongest of winds. The next day a wolf happened to pass by the lane where the three little pigs lived. He saw the straw house and he smelled the pig inside. He thought the pig would make a mighty fine meal and his mouth began to water. So the wolf knocked on the door and said, Little pig, Little pig, Let me in, Let me in. But the little pig saw the wolf's big paws through the keyhole. So he answered back, No, No, No, Not by the hairs on my chinny chin chin. Then the wolf showed his teeth and said, Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down. So he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down. The wolf opened his jaws very wide and bit down as hard as he could. But the first little pig escaped and he ran away to hide with the second little pig. The wolf continued down the lane and he passed by the second house made of sticks and he saw the house and he smelled the pigs inside and his mouth began to water. As he thought about the fine dinner that they would make, So he knocked on the door and said, Little pigs, Little pigs, Let me in, Let me in. But the little pig saw the wolf's pointy ears through the keyhole. So they answered back, No, No, No, Not by the hairs on our chinny chin chins. So the wolf showed his teeth and said, Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down. So he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down. The wolf was greedy and he tried to catch both pigs at once. But because he was so greedy, He got neither. His big jaws clamped down on nothing but air and the two little pigs scrambled away as fast as their little hooves would carry them. The wolf chased them down the lane and he almost caught them. But they made it to the brick house and they slammed the door closed before the wolf could catch them. The three little pigs were very frightened and they knew the wolf wanted to eat them. And that was very, Very true. The wolf hadn't eaten all day and he had worked up a large appetite chasing the pigs around. And now he could smell all three of them inside. And he knew that the little three pigs would make a lovely feast. So the wolf knocked on the door and he said, Little pigs, Little pigs, Let me in, Let me in. But the three little pigs saw the wolf's narrow eyes through the keyhole. So they answered back, No, No, No, Not by the hairs on our chinny chin chin. So the wolf showed his teeth and said, And said, Then I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house down. So he huffed and he puffed and he huffed and he puffed and he puffed and he huffed and he huffed and he huffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed and he puffed supper
