This is Mary and her mother.

One day, Mary's mother lets her go outside to play.

Mary runs outside...

But she falls down and breaks her leg.

Her friends come by and ask if she can come out to play.

"I can't," says Mary.

"Because I broke my leg!"

A while later, Mary's leg gets better.

Her mom tells her she can go outside to play again.

Mary runs outside...

But this time she falls down and breaks her arm.

Her friends come by and ask if she can come out to play again.

"I can't," says Mary.

"Because I fell down and broke my arm!"

A while later, Mary's arm gets better.

"You can go out to play, even though it's raining," says her mother.

Mary runs outside...

But she catches a cold from playing in the rain!

Her friends come by and ask if she can come out to play again.

"I can't," says Mary.

"Because I have a really bad cold!"

A while later, Mary gets better from her cold.

Her friends come by and ask if she can come out to play again."

"Sorry, but I can't come out to play," says Mary. "Now I have to get caught up on all my homework!"
