Today is was the day l get to spend time with Ms. Lena and Ms. Stef
I made to lay my clothes out last night before bed, l decided to my white dress with red and green roses on it
They were due to arrive in hour or so
That gave me enough time to eat some breakfast. I'm not sure what their planning taking, it was such sunny outside. It's hard believe Christmas is in another three weeks, Madeline one of the cooks here prepared French toast strawberries on top covered in whipped cream and turkey sausage to
Drink l had a glass of chocolate milk
It was so good. After I was finished eating, l went upstairs to brush my teeth. I got a new polar bear back pack, l put Ms muffin inside. Francesca puts her nap sack on her back. Came downstairs and waited
Francesca you must be excited to be spending time with Ms. Lena and her wife Stef, Dr. Shannon says to me
I've been looking forward to it these last few weeks Francesca replied as she folded her hands in her lap, Shannon notice Francesca was rather nervous. Francesca would like it if I give you something to settle your anxiety down a bit Shannon offers

Shannon States. Are you sure it wouldn't make tired asked once more
Francesca l need to ask you a very important question has anyone given you medicine that made you so exhausted she fell asleep instantly Shannon said, the foster home l been in. The woman would put sleeping pills in my food when I wasn't looking
It always made me drowsy and I wake up the next day and couldn't remember Anything from the night before. Francesca explains, sweetheart l'm sorry that happened to you. None shouldn't never do things without your consent Shannon tells me, when if there being mean to me
I do still have to come tell an adult what happen. Francesca Stated
It's always important to tell someone when an older person, makes you feel uncomfortable or unsafe Shannon explained. Dr. Shannon l think l'm ok
Now, with no medicine Francesca express.




Stef's: POV
We just left Lena's doctor appointment Dr. whitmore says the babies are growing healthy
They weigh three pounds, Dr. Whitmore Lena needs to cut back on the sweets and eat more vegetables
Overall she was perfect health
Where on our way to the group home to pick up Francesca for the Day. I have been trying to decide where we should go, Lena told me the nut cracker was in town at the theater
It's not that I wanted to go there
I thought it was be nice to do something fun since it was a beautiful morning. How bout we take Francesca to the aquarium where she can see the different types of fish and other creatures Stef said, that's a great idea. Even though Lena wants to go see the nut cracker, and afterwards we could go to lunch Stef states
I think we should asks Francesca what she wants to do first. Before jumping into these suggestions Lena explains, Stef ponders over what Lena just mentioned. I think the Aquarium is still educational, Stef responds
Lena looks out the window. They pulled up the group home, Stef turns off the engine. Stef's glad they stopped off the gas station to put some gas in the car, Lena gets out the vehicle and walks up the walkway
She enters the room. Where she sees Francesca and Shannon in the living room,  Good morning Shannon Francesca Lena says in a cheerful tone. Morning Mrs. Lena Francesca smiles, guess what l had french toast with strawberries and whipped cream on top Francesca tells Lena
That sounds wonderful sweetheart
Are you all set to go for outing today
Lena inquires. Yes ma'am do you like my new dress Francesca asks
It's beautiful sweetie Lena replied
Shall we head out, Lena says
Shannon will have her back before dinner Lena informs Shannon. No worries Lena l know you she's in capable hands, just a heads up l went on and handled our situation Shannon speaks down low. Good Lena replies. Francesca was busy getting her coat not hearing what the women were talking about, Lena heads over to the door and opens it up. They walked towards the car, Lena helps Francesca into the back seat and buckles up her safety belt. Hi Ms. Stef Francesca, hey honey do you look lovely Stef speaks. Thank you
Where are we going Francesca asked curiously, oh l was thinking the Seattle Aquarium Stef suggests
Cool we always pass by there Francesca gleams with excitement
