Hiiiii! My name is Pinkie Pie. I live on a rock farm with my mommy and daddy and my sisters, Maud, Marble, and Limestone. We have lots of rocks. Big rocks, small rocks, and rocks that are all smooth and shiny. We have a lot of rocks because my mommy and daddy say they are very important. But I don’t really like rocks. Rocks are boring. They don’t talk or sing or play games. They just sit there, being all rock-y.
Every day, we wake up super duper early when the sun is still hiding. Mommy makes us breakfast, but it’s always the same. Oatmeal. Plain oatmeal with no sugar. I don’t like oatmeal very much, but I eat it because Mommy says it’s good for me. She says it will make me big and strong, but I don’t feel very strong. I feel kinda sad and sleepy because it’s still dark outside.
After breakfast, we go outside to work with the rocks. We push them around and break them up and sort them into piles. Daddy says this is important work. He says we need to do it every day, even when it’s cold or raining. But the rocks never change. They are always just rocks. Sometimes I try to talk to them, but they don’t answer me. They just sit there, being all quiet and rock-y.
Mommy and Daddy are very strict. They don’t like it when we laugh or play too much. They say work is serious and we need to focus. But it’s hard to focus when everything is so boring. I try to make it fun by pretending the rocks are different things. Sometimes they are cookies or cupcakes, and sometimes they are my friends. But Mommy and Daddy don’t like that. They say I need to stop daydreaming and pay attention to my work.
One day, I found a special rock. It was round and smooth and shiny, and it had little sparkles in it. I called it Sparkle Rock. I carried it around with me everywhere because it made me happy. I talked to Sparkle Rock and told it all my secrets. But then, one day, Mommy saw me with Sparkle Rock and she took it away. She said it was just a rock and I needed to stop being silly. I cried a lot because I missed Sparkle Rock. It was my only friend.
At night, after all the work is done, we go inside and have dinner. Dinner is always vegetables and bread. No sweets, no desserts. Just vegetables and bread. Sometimes, I wish we could have cake or cookies, but Mommy says those are for special occasions only. I don’t know when a special occasion is coming. It feels like it never comes.
After dinner, we go to bed. Mommy and Daddy say goodnight and then it’s just me and my sisters in the dark. Marble is very quiet and shy, and Limestone is always serious. So is Maud They don’t like to play games or tell stories. So, I just lay in my bed and look at the ceiling, thinking about Sparkle Rock and wishing for something fun to happen.
One night, I heard a funny sound outside. It was like a whoosh and a bang and a lot of colors. I got up and looked out the window, and I saw the sky was full of rainbows and sparkles and lights. It was so pretty! I wanted to go outside and see it up close, but I was afraid Mommy and Daddy would get mad. But the lights were so bright and happy, I couldn’t help it. I snuck outside and looked up at the sky. The colors made me feel warm and fuzzy inside, like a big hug.
I wanted to share the happy feeling with my family, so I ran back inside and woke them up. I told them about the lights, but they just grumbled and said I was being silly. They told me to go back to bed. I felt sad again, but I couldn’t forget the colors. They were too beautiful.
The next day, I couldn’t stop thinking about the lights. I wanted to make something that would make everyone feel as happy as I did when I saw them. I decided to make a party. I didn’t know how to make a party, but I thought if I put up some decorations and made some treats, maybe it would work.
I found some old ribbons and cloth in the barn and used them to decorate the dining room. I made a banner that said “Party!” even though I didn’t know if it was right. I didn’t have any cake or cookies, so I used rocks and pretended they were cupcakes. I put little hats on the rocks and made them look fun.
When everything was ready, I called my family into the room. They looked confused and a little grumpy, but I told them it was a party and they should try to have fun. At first, they just stood there, looking at the decorations and the rock-cupcakes. But then, something amazing happened. Marble smiled. And then Limestone giggled. And then, even Mommy and Daddy started to laugh.
We played games and told stories and pretended the rocks were real cupcakes. It was the best day ever. I felt so happy, like the lights in the sky were inside me, making me shine. From that day on, I knew I wanted to make people happy. I wanted to throw parties and make everyone smile.
Mommy and Daddy still made us work with the rocks every day, but they weren’t as strict anymore. They let us laugh and play a little, and sometimes they even joined in. I still miss Sparkle Rock, but now I have my family, and we have fun together. And sometimes, when I feel sad, I think about the colors in the sky and remember how happy they made me feel.
I want to see those colors again. I want to find out where they come from and make everyone feel as happy as I did that night. I want to throw parties and make cakes and cookies and see everyone smile. I want to be Pinkie Pie, the pony who brings joy and laughter to everyone. It’s nighttime, so I went to sleep.

One day, I was playing inside because it was raining really hard outside. The rain made a loud noise on the roof, like a drum. Boom, boom, boom! I didn’t like the rain because it made everything wet and muddy. I couldn’t play with the rocks or run around outside. So, I decided to explore the house instead.
I went into the closet in the hallway. It was a big closet with lots of old stuff in it. Mommy and Daddy said we shouldn’t go in there because it was messy, but I was bored and curious. I wanted to see what was inside. I found lots of old clothes and boxes and things I didn’t know what they were.
Then, I saw a big, dusty box way in the back. It was really old and had spiderwebs on it. I don’t like spiders, but I was too excited to be scared. I pulled the box out and opened it. Inside, there were lots of old toys! They were all dirty and broken, but there was one toy that was perfect. It was a little stuffed pony with pink fur and a big, bright smile. It looked just like me!
I picked up the toy and hugged it tight. It was soft and cuddly and made me feel warm and happy. I named it Little Missy. I took Little Missy everywhere with me. I showed it to Marble and Limestone, but they didn’t seem very interested. They just said it was an old toy and went back to their rocks. But I didn’t care. Little Missy was my new best friend.
We did everything together. We played games, had tea parties, and even worked with the rocks. Little Missy made everything more fun. I talked to it and told it all my secrets, just like I did with Sparkle Rock. But Little Missy was even better because it was soft and huggable.
One day, Limestone saw me playing with Little Missy. She looked at it with a funny look in her eyes. She said it was silly to play with an old toy and that I should give it to her. I didn’t want to give Little Missy to Limestone. It was mine, and it made me happy. I said no and held Little Missy tight.
But Limestone didn’t listen. She grabbed Little Missy from my hooves and ran away with it. I tried to chase her, but she was too fast. I cried and cried because I missed Little Missy so much. I didn’t know what to do, so I went to find Mommy and Daddy.
I found them in the kitchen, talking about grown-up stuff. I told them what happened and how Limestone took Little Missy from me. I thought they would help me get it back, but instead, they got mad at me. They said I was tattling and that I should learn to share. They said it was just a toy and that I needed to stop being selfish.
I felt so sad and hurt. I didn’t understand why they didn’t help me. Little Missy was mine, and Limestone took it away. I cried and cried, but Mommy and Daddy just sent me to my room. They said I needed to think about what I did. I felt so alone and unhappy. It wasn’t fair. I just wanted my toy back.
In my room, I hugged my pillow and cried some more. I missed Little Missy so much. It was my only friend, and now it was gone. I didn’t know how to make things better. I felt so sad and small, like nothing could ever make me happy again.
That night, I couldn’t sleep. I kept thinking about Little Missy and how much I missed it. I wanted to get it back, but I was afraid of getting in trouble again. I didn’t know what to do. I just wanted to be happy and play with my toy. I wished the rain would stop and the colors would come back to the sky, like that night when I saw the lights.
The next morning, I woke up feeling sad and tired. I went downstairs for breakfast, but I didn’t want to eat. I just wanted Little Missy back. Mommy and Daddy didn’t say anything about what happened. They just told me to eat my oatmeal and get ready for work. I didn’t feel like working with the rocks. I didn’t feel like doing anything.
After breakfast, I went outside with Marble, Maud, and Limestone. The rain had stopped, but everything was still wet and muddy. I didn’t care. I just wanted to find Little Missy. I looked around the yard and the barn, but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I asked Limestone if she had it, but she just shrugged and said she didn’t know.
I felt like crying again, but I didn’t want to get in trouble. I tried to be brave and do my work, but it was hard. Everything felt so heavy and sad without Little Missy. I wished I could make things better. I wished I could see the colors in the sky again.
Then, something amazing happened. Maud came up to me and handed me something. It was Little Missy! She said she found it in the barn and thought I would want it back. I felt so happy and thankful. I hugged Maud and then hugged Little Missy tight. I felt warm and fuzzy inside, like the colors in the sky were back.
I thanked Maud over and over again. She smiled and said it was okay. She said she liked seeing me happy. I felt so much better. I knew I had to be careful with Little Missy and not let Limestone take it again. But for now, I was just happy to have my friend back.
From that day on, I tried to be more careful and not get in trouble. I still loved to play and have fun, but I knew I had to listen to Mommy and Daddy too. I didn’t want to be sad and lonely again. I wanted to be happy and make others happy too. So that’s what I did!
The end!
