Francesca's: POV
It was two days before Christmas
And Lena l decided to bake some cookies. I always enjoy spending time her, she's been showing different things. From scratch so when she suggested we make Christmas cookies
I was all in. She got all the ingredients
We were gonna make ginger bread cookies and sugar ones, then design them. She was showing all sorts neat tricks using the cook cutters, while we were listening to music on ipod
She sent Ms. Stef to grocery store
to pick up some groceries for Christmas dinner, l'm having some much. They treating me like l'm there own daughter, l pray Santa Claus grants me my wish that they adopt me
And I could be there little girl. Even though l already feel like l am, l've never had anybody take the time out to teach me new things in the kitchen
After we begin setting the cookies on the baking sheet. We put them in the oven, and we cleaned up the kitchen then got started on making french toast. Lena allowed me to crack the eggs, and added in the cinnamon along with the milk, she showed me how to use the whisk. She says l'm a natural, she went over to the stove and put the butter in the flying pan
So it melt. Then we would add in the French toast, Ms. Lena was busy cutting up strawberries. I stared in a amazement, she begin singing Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
I begin laughing while she was dancing around the kitchen. Then cocoa and snowy started barking loudly, l guess Ms. Stef is back from the super market. Ms. Lena put a few pieces of bread in the flying pan, she checked the oven to see how the cookies were coming along. She won't be able to put the sprinkles until they were cool off, l saw all the different colors she laid on the table. There was green, red, white Ms. Stef enters inside the cabin. Can somebody come out here and give me a hand with these bags please, she said Ms. Lena can help carry Ms. Stef please Francesca asked. Alright go get some shoes and coat on cause I don't want you catching a cold she kissed me on the head, l walked happily upstairs where cocoa followed right behind me. I swear this dog follows me everywhere l go, Ms. Lena Cocoa must like me. At night cocoa sneaks in my room and lays at the end of the bed
While I sleep. Snowy has his moments
But he loves being cuddled, Ms. Lena brought us all matching pajamas to wear Christmas morning. We're supposed to take photos outside today
Ms. Lena and Ms. Brought me more outfits to wear. I'm trying to decide what to put on, l probably stick with the red sweater with the rain deer on the front and my black leggings and boots. I know Ms. Stef has a green one with a snow man on it, and Ms. Lena has the one with the Christmas tree
Plus we have hats to wear. Ms. Lena is going to braid my hair into French braids like hers, she has long hair like mine accept hers is curly. Shes been showing me different braiding techniques. We had pedicures and facials last night, she polished my nails and toes pink and hers she did dark purple. Ms. Stef has did hers clear, and then we watched Christmas movies down in the movie room that was set up like a movie theater.
I came back down stairs and went outside to grab some bags from Ms. Stef's mini van and carried them inside the house of course cocoa was hot on my tail. Ms. Lena must have just finished feeding them, sometimes
I help assist with filling their bowls with fresh water and dry food
But they rather have people meals instead.
