Some leaves of a tree had been found on the nursery floor, which certainly were not there when the children went to bed, and Mrs. Darling was puzzling over them when Wendy said with a tolerant smile: 'I do believe it is that Peter again!' SOME LEAVES OF A TREE HAD BEEN FOUND ON THE NURSERY FLOOR WHICH CERTAINLY WERE NOT THERE WHEN THE CHILDREN WENT TO BED AND MISSUS DARLING WAS PUZZLING OVER THEM WHEN WENDY SAID WITH A TOLERANT SMILE I DO BELIEVE IT IS THAT PETER AGAIN
 at the time, but now that she was married and full of sense she quite doubted whether there was any such person. 'Besides,' she said to Wendy, 'he would be grown up by this time.' 'Oh no, he isn't grown up,' Wendy assured her confidently, 'and he is just my size.' She meant that he was her size in both mind and body; she didn't know how she knew it, she just knew it. Mrs. Darling consulted Mr. Darling, but he smiled pooh-pooh. 'Mark my words,' he said, 'it is some nonsense Nana has been putting into their heads; just the sort of idea a dog would have. Leave it alone, and it will blow over.' But it would not blow over; and soon the troublesome boy gave Mrs. Darling quite a shock. Children have the strangest adventures without being troubled by them. For instance, they may remember to mention, a week after the event happened, that when they were in the wood they met their dead father and had a game with him. It was in this casual way that Wendy one morning made a disquieting revelation. RIGHTENED SHE HAD BELIEVED IN HIM AT THE TIME BUT NOW THAT SHE WAS MARRIED AND FULL OF SENSE SHE QUITE DOUBTED WHETHER THERE WAS ANY SUCH PERSON BESIDES SHE SAID TO WENDY HE WOULD BE GROWN UP BY THIS TIME OH NO HE ISN'T GROWN UP WENDY ASSURED HER CONFIDENTLY AND HE IS JUST MY SIZE SHE MEANT THAT HE WAS HER SIZE IN BOTH MIND AND BODY SHE DIDN'T KNOW HOW SHE KNEW IT SHE JUST KNEW IT MISSUS DARLING CONSULTED MISTER DARLING BUT HE SMILED POOH POOH MARK MY WORDS HE SAID IT IS SOME NONSENSE NANA HAS BEEN PUTTING INTO THEIR HEADS JUST THE SORT OF IDEA A DOG WOULD HAVE LEAVE IT ALONE AND IT WILL BLOW OVER BUT IT WOULD NOT BLOW OVER AND SOON THE TROUBLESOME BOY GAVE MISSUS DARLING QUITE A SHOCK CHILDREN HAVE THE STRANGEST ADVENTURES WITHOUT BEING TROUBLED BY THEM FOR INSTANCE THEY MAY REMEMBER TO MENTION A WEEK AFTER THE EVENT HAPPENED THAT WHEN THEY WERE IN THE WOOD THEY MET THEIR DEAD FATHER AND HAD A GAME WITH HIM IT WAS IN THIS CASUAL WAY THAT WENDY ONE MORNING MADE A DISQUIETING REVELATION
