"Mommy, Mommy!"
I heard yelling from outside of my bedroom. The yelling woke me up from my sleep, So I begun to get up from my bed. My head turned looking at the clock reading 3:05 A.M. I snapped my head again in front of me when the door creaked open showing my little Miya.
She stood there with her pink zebra pattern pajamas and bunny slippers. She looked so cute with her curly brown messy hair, and her big milky brown eyes. She rubbed her eyes tiredly looking at me.
"Mom bathromf pwease?" She said with pleading eyes.
"Okay, sweetheart let's go."
This time I got off from the comfy bed and swung my legs over. Once my feet touched the floor, I hurriedly walked across my bedroom to Miya. I scooped her up in my arms walking fast to the bathroom making sure she doesn't pee on herself.
Once I entered the bathroom and lifted the toilet seat up. I sat her the on the toilet and squatted down so I was eye level with her and began my routine that I do every time encouraging her when she needed to use the restroom.
"Come on my girl, you got it. Come on, baby girl you can do it!" After a little words of encouragement she finally peed.
I picked her up from the toilet seat and stood her up on the ground, helping her put her pajamas pants on. I than proceeded to lift her up again and sat her on my legs and between the sink. I pumped the soap on her hand and washed them with warm water. Once the soap was gone from her hands I sat her on the ground again and walked her to her room.
Her room was a decent size. It wasn't too big nor too small. Her walls were pink and purple, which matched her bed comforter which was pink with purple dots. She also had a dresser on the side of the room with her favorite books and movies.
I walked her to her bed and laid her down. Once I wiggled her in the bed and tucked her in, I faced her, and cradled her in my arms.
"Do you want me to read you a story baby girl? She nodded her head in response.
"Which one? I asked
""Twiger and the tu-r-tt-wle"! She said with a gleam in her eyes.
I chuckled at her stumbling words. I picked the book from her collection and sat down on the bed and started reading. About 5 minutes later we finally came to the last page, I read out the last words to her before I closed the book.
"The turtle and the tiger roamed the land being forever friends.
THE END"
After closing the book I looked at my Miya and realized she was asleep. I kissed her forehead and swept her hair from her face.
"Goodnight baby girl. I whispered in her ear.
I put the night light on beside her bed, and walked to door. I looked back at her one last time before I closed the door fully. I breathed a sigh of relief and headed to my bedroom. Once I entered in I crawled into my bed trying to sleep away the few hours I have left before waking up early.
