Always Committed To you

“Mommy, mommy, wake up. It’s time to shake up, nanananaa nananananaaa.”

“Urge yes-yes, I am up.” Ella groaned and got up reluctantly.

“Stop jumping on the bed, berry; else you will hurt yourself,” she told her five-year-old daughter while rubbing her own sleepy eyes. She was way too sleep-deprived to match her daughter’s excitement this early morning.

“Okay-Doki, mommy.” She said cheerfully.

“How can someone be so perky like you this early in the morning?” She asked her, dumbfounded. But who is she kidding? Lilly has been an early riser since she was a toddler, just like her father.

“Because I am an early morning riser.” Her little girl started jumping again on the bed.

“Ugh! No more jumping, Lillian.” Her mother told her firmly. This made Lilly stopped. Her mom calling by her full name is not a good sign.

“Come on, Lilly. Get ready now, and I will cook something for you,” Ella said while getting up from bed.

“Okay, Doki, mommy.” She ran out of the room to get herself dressed for school.

Ella would say that, for a five-year-old, Lily is definitely a smart girl. But sometimes, she can be a handful. Whatever it is, she is in her life, her oxygen.

For the past five years, she has been like her alarm clock. As mentioned, Lilly is an early riser. She is used to getting up at six every morning. Whereas Ella is concerned, she can sleep till noon, but no such luck when you have a notorious little girl jumping on your bed at six am every morning.

So she finally got up, brushed her teeth, and made her way downstairs towards the kitchen. Ella thought about cooking pancakes for her little daughter. Lilly loves pancakes. She is also a sucker for sweets, but what kid doesn’t like sweet food?

“Mommy, I am ready.” She ran downstairs towards the dining area and sat on the chair.

“And your pancakes are also ready.” Ella puts the plate in front of Lilly, filled with three pancakes with maple syrup on top.

“Yay, I plovv you mnomy,” she said with her mouthful.

“Love you too, Berry. But no talking while eating.” It’s beyond her imagination how this little girl in front of her can feed herself with three pancakes.

While she was digging into her pancakes, Ella took a hot shower and dressed herself for work.

“Hurry up, berry, or else we will be late for school.”

After twenty minutes, they both reached their destination.

“So here we are, Lily; Tinsley Grammy will pick you up. I’ll be a bit late today. Be a good girl, and don’t harass her.”

“I won’t, mommy. I will be a delightful girl,” she giggled.

“I am sure you will be. Have a good day.” Ella kissed both her cheeks.

“You too, mommy.” Lily pecked her mother’s cheek and ran into her school.

After dropping her off, Ella drives herself to work.
