It was Monday June 2nd, the start of a brand new week. I woke up in the morning, nice and early. I looked over at my alarm clock, 7am, I stretched and yawned as I rolled the covers off me and placed it on the side of the bed. I planted my small feet onto the plush carpet and put on my fluffy pink slippers and went to Sophie's bedroom. I turned the doorknob slowly and entered her room.
Her room was painted with pink, her favourite colour. She had lots of pictures hung everywhere. I had one of her drawings in a frame hung on the right side of the room. Toys were scattered all over the place. She had a pink fluffy rug and a small, little desk in the corner of her room. Her purple butterfly curtains railing down and her single bed in the middle of the room.
Sophie was sleeping peacefully, hugging her teddy bear tightly which she got for Christmas last year. She was all cosy and warm, wrapped up in her periwinkle knitted blankey. I smiled and gently tip toed past her Barbie Princess dollhouse and went to her side of the bed. She was very tired I could tell, last night we played teachers. She was the teacher and I was the student as a way of helping her study for the test. I kneeled down and traced my fingers to her forehead gently brushing a lock of hair behind her ear as her eyes fluttered opened.
"Mommy?" she said in her cute angelic voice as she rubbed her eyes from her sleep
I gently stroked her silky, brown, chocolate hair that was covering her eyes. "I'm here sweetie" I said to her as I kissed her cheek "good sleep?" I asked.
She nods and gently sits up; resting her head against the head board as she stroked the hair on her Barbie doll "Yeah"
She scooted over and I lay next to her, wrapping my arms around her keeping her close to me. She was the thing I loved most in the world. I absolutely loved Sophie. Her sweet, adorable angelic face, her deep brown eyes and chocolate hair, her little cute face she makes when she doesn't get her way. She has some features of her father. She does not know about Sterling, but I'm planning on telling her when she is just a little bit older. "School today, ready for your test?" she had a test on numbers, adding and subtracting. I helped her study for the test by role-playing last night.

Last Night;
We were in our pyjamas sitting the living room. I was drinking hot coco and she had her little glass of milk on the side. All her teddy bears were sitting in a circle. I was sitting down next to one and holding a whiteboard.
"So, what is 2+2?" she asked the class. I quickly wrote down the wrong answer to see if she knew what the right answer was. I held up my whiteboard
She walks over to me "no, no no" she shook her head "2+2 is not 3, its 4" she corrected me.
I smiled at her and pulled her into my arms "you are going to get a really good mark and mommy is going to be very happy with you" I told her.
She giggled and wrapped her arms around my neck as she yawned softly. I smiled and gently picked her up and made my way to her room. She fell asleep on my shoulder blade. I opened her door and set her down on the bed and wrapped the covers around her. I gave her a kiss on her cheek. "Night sweetie" and closed the door making a single creak.

She shakes her head as she snuggles up to me "I want to stay home" she buries her head into my chest
"Aww" I smiled down at her and kissed the top of her head. "You will do great, we studied hard yesterday" I told her
Her lips curved into a small smile as she rushes out of the bed and looks out of the window. She opened the curtains letting the sunlight beam down against the room. Gold and yellow leaves covered the front lawn as autumn was approaching.
I got up and made her bed and walked over to where she was. I wrapped my arms around her "What do you want for breakfast?" I asked her
She looked up at me and said "pancakes with strawberries and whip cweam" she giggled
I smiled down at her "ok sweetie, lets get you dressed" I scoped her up in my arms as she rested her head on my shoulder blade. I walked over her closet and took out a pink flower summer dress and some pink sparkly jelly sandals and lay them down on her bed. I set her down on the bed. "Get dressed, brush your teeth and I'll comb your hair" I smiled warmly at her and kissed her forehead as I headed back to my room and started roaming through my closet deciding what to wear to work.
