day 4: what’s your ideal little day?
i’m gonna write a story! :)
ooooooh this ended up being a long one and probably a good time to show off my former writer skills anyways… i guess this is what happens when you daydream too deeply oops… but here goes nothings! let me know what you thinks!
soooooo it would start with mama (i don’t actually have one yet but yk what i mean) gently waking me up with kissies and rubbing my back. when i finally come to, i smell my favorite breakfast waffles and bacon cooking in the kitchen, almost done!
me: “mornings mama… is dat waffles and bacon?”
mama: “there she is, my sweet girl! yes angel, your favorite! and they’re almost done too!”
me: “yummyyyy tanks mama!” as i yawn. mama always makes the best food!!!
she feeds me and then after i’m done and she washes my face since i’m a messy baby, she puts me in my playpen for some independent play while she cleans up the kitchen with my blocks and dolls. she even puts bluey on to play in the background! she checks on me every few minutes and makes sure i’m behaving. i always try to behave and be mama’s angel, even though i’m not always successful! :p
after she’s done, she goes:
“so, i was thinking you could come on a drive with mama and then we can go to the park to feed the ducks! how does that sound, little one?”
“DUCKIESSSSS!!! YAY!” i respond with excitement.
she can’t help but laugh at how adorable i am. “i’ll take that as a yes! okay, let’s get those teeth brushed, we’ll pick out a nice outfit and we’ll be on our way!”
she picks out a cute ruffled pink outfit with overall for me to wear!!! she helps me get dressed, fix my hair, and puts on my shoes! out the door we go. i’m so excited the whole drive, humming and talking about duckies. she happily listens. she loves to see her girl so happy and carefree.
once we get to the park she teaches me about the safe foods duckies can eat and helps me feed them! i am smiling from ear to ear the whole time because duckies are one of my favorite animals!!!
after some time on the playground, and drawing on the concrete she warns me it’s almost nap time so we have to leave. i start to pout and say:
“noooo mama please, i wanna keep playing and drawing please!!!”
she kneels down to my level and gently but firmly responds, “i know baby, you’re having so much fun and i love seeing you so happy, but little girls like you have to take naps so they can grow to be big and strong and recharge their batteries! you want that, don’t you?”
“y… yes… but i’m not even tired!” i whine.
“it’s okay angel, i’ll make you a baba with warm milk and honey! then you and whiskers (my stuffed cat) can cuddle with each other while i read you both a story! that usually makes you so sleepy, doesn’t it? doesn’t that sound nice?” she smiles warmly.
i think about it and nod. “okays mama…”
“that’s my good girl!” she exclaims, softly taking my hand while i waddle with her to the car.
on the drive back it gets so hard to keep my eyes open, but i do it anyways. i really want my milk!
we pull into the driveway, she unbuckles me and smiles, pulling me into her arms while she locks the car. “uh oh, someone looks so sleepy already! you love mama’s drives so much, don’t you?”
i nod a little bit and put my thumb into my mouth without realizing.
“no no little one, we don’t put our fingers into our mouths, that’s icky! here you go!” as she puts a paci into my mouth.
she hands me whiskers with a soft “here you go, sweetie. why don’t you and whiskers sit and play nicely while i make your bottle, hm?”
she comes back in what feels like forever with it. i make grabby hands at her, whining because i missed her so badly…
“ah, my sleepy cuddly baby. mama loves you so much! let’s go to your nursery and read you that story.” as she picks me up and plants a kiss on my forehead.
“love chu…” i sleepily mumble through my paci, holding onto whiskers tightly in my little hands.
she gently sits down in the rocking chair and reads me green eggs and ham while i slowly drink my bottle. i don’t even make it halfway through the book before i’m out like a light. she smiles in awe as she gently closes the book, stands up with me still in her arms and puts me down in my crib, tucking me in
“sweet dreams, little one.”
about an hour later, i wake up without her there and start to cry.
“m… mommy? where are you… i miss you…” as the tears start to fall.
she comes rushing in, “oh no! my poor baby, it’s okay i promise. mama’s right here! did you have a bad dream?” as she grabs me out of my crib, shushing me and rubbing my back.
i shake my head. “nuh uh mama, i just didn’t see you here anymore…” i sniffle.
with so much care and concern on her face, she sighs. “i’m so sorry baby i forget how hard it can be for you to wake up by yourself! but i was thinking while you were sleeping and since you’ve been such a good girl for me all day, what do you think about going to the aquarium?”
i immediately stop crying and gasp.
“FISHIES? really mama?! do you mean it?!”
she giggles, “yes sweetie, really!”
and basically she takes me to the aquarium, we have so much fun. she asks me if i know the names of the fishies! if i get it right she gets to excited and proud of me! if not, she teaches me all about them! i love learning!
after our fun day out and ice cream, it’s nini time! she draws me a bath to get me nice and sleepy, puts me in my favorite footie jammies! she makes me another baba, reads me another story but this one about fish! i’m a little harder to put down at night, so she keeps rocking me after i finish my baba, rubbing my back, and singing me a lullaby. mama has the most soothing voice ever and it’s just what i need to finally drift onto dreamland.
i… cannot believe i wrote all of that. 😭 i hope at least one person enjoyed that lol… if not, oh whale! i had a blast writing it and may write more like it, especially if i get good feedback. 💕 happy 4th of july, if you celebrate! :)
