Ava's writing assignment

Ava has a weekly writing assignment where there is a photo that she has to describe (Three or four sentences) then a second page where she has to expand on the story and make her own drawing.
Somehow, we received two weeks in a row of the same picture (Dad carrying a huge plate of spaghetti, mom and kid siting at the set table ready).
She was confused since she already wrote about this, so I told her the assignment must be to get creative.
...
I realized about half way through, once she started asking me how to spell different words, that it was going to be a pretty ....interesting story.

Ava's Story Below, word for word:


 "He is drinking milk. The Mom is drinking water. The dad is going to drink water too"
Next page (with her drawings).


 "Then they birthed a baby and the Dad had long hair. The End".

I am not really quite sure if we are seeing photos of the actual birth, the baby, or the dad with long hair holding the baby, or all of it.
