'Butters! Butters! Butters come!' Jessie screamed as she chased the dog around the house.

'Babes? Lunch's ready!' Katy called as Jessie disappeared into the room next door.

'Come on! We have to have a really quick lunch now!' Katy called again.

'Mommy why do we need a quick lunch? I'm hungry!' She asked, popping back into the dining room.

'Of course you are honey! You have been running around the house for the past two hours with Butters! Come I've made your favourite!'

'Yay! Thank you mommy! I love you!' Jessie said, putting Butters down and followed her mommy into the kitchen.

'Come on eat up Jessie, stop staring at the tele!' Katy urged as the doorbell rung.

'Hey where's the little angel? Auntie Shanny's here!' Shannon screamed, waving her petite arms in the air with a bag attached to her wrist.

'Auntie Shanny! I missed you!' Jessie shrieked and turned away from the television.

'I miss you too Jessie! I got you a little something, I hope you like it!' Shannon said, handing Jessie the brown paper bag.

'Can I open it now?' She said, peeking curiously into the bag.

'Of course you can! See if you like it or now alright?'

'I love it so much! Thank you Auntie Shanny!' Jessie said, pulling a doll out of the bag.

'Woah let mommy see what you've got! Wow what is that?'

'Mommy it's Elsa! Elsa's back!' Jessie screamed.

Katy smiled at her little girl and thanked Shannon.

'Hello Elsa! I missed you so much! Welcome home!' Jessie said, holding her doll to her face.

(Flashback...)

Katy was on tour in India and Jessie came with her. They had a few days free before they had to fly back home and Katy decided to take Jessie out on a stroll.

'Hey little pancake, do you want to go out and have some fun together?' Katy said.

'Yes please mommy! Can Elsa come too?' Jessie asked eagerly.

'Of course she can!' Katy said, stroking the hair of little girl.

As they walked down the streets of India, Jessie was shocked to see that not everyone is as lucky as she is. Jessie obviously had been growing up in a very safe and lucky surrounding, but it was very different in the street markets of India.

'Mommy why does everyone look so sad?' Jessie asked Katy.

'Well I don't think that they are sad honey, I think that people are more stressed and worried.'

'Worried about what?' She asked.

'They might be worried about not having enough money and food or clothes.'

'But why? Why do they not have everything?'

'This is because not everyone is as lucky as we are. Not everyone is so lucky that they can have everything that they need and want.'

Jessie nodded as she processed what her mom just told her. She had never came across anyone who did not have everything that they need. All her friends are very well taken care of and had everything that they wanted. She looked around, not really knowing how to react to her new surrounding. Katy watched her daughter carefully, making sure that she is taking in what she just told her well as she realised that it was something quite deep for a young child to understand.

'Mommy look at her!' Jessie said, pointing towards a corner, where a little girl, perhaps a little older than Jessie sat quietly, curled up in a ball and wrapped up in a damaged blanket.

'Babes don't point, remember what I told you? It's rude to point.'

'Sorry mommy... She looks really scared... mommy do something! Can we help her?'

'Of course we can Jess. Would you like to buy her some food?'

'Yes mommy.' Jessie said, holding her Elsa doll in her arms as she followed Katy to a food stall.

'Do you want to give this to her? Afterall this is your idea.' She said, proud of her daughter's big heart.

'Yes mommy. Will you come with me?'

'Of course I will come with you.'

The two approached that little girl and Jessie gave her the box of food and some money. The little girl was so thankful but afraid at the same time. Maybe she was not used to people being nice to her. Jessie smiled at her as she smiled back. Jessie tried to have a conversation with the little girl, but unfortunately she did not speak english. Jessie became confused again, but there was one thing clear. That little girl had her eyes locked on Elsa. Jessie looked at her mommy while Katy waited for a reaction from her. Katy watched her daughter hug Elsa and give her doll a soft kiss before handing it to the little girl. A smile immediately crept onto her face as she took the doll from Jessie and cuddled with it.

As the two walked away, Jessie kept looking back, wanting to have her doll back, but deep down she knew that the other girl needed the doll more than she did.

'Mommy I miss Elsa...' Jessie said while she fiddled with her fingers in the car.

'I know baby, I know.'

'Do you think that I did the good thing that you always say I should do for people?'

'Absolutely. You did the good thing there and you were so kind. I am so proud of you Jess. Not every girl can give up their favourite procession away to someone else.'

(End Of Flashback...)

'Jess why don't you go and bring your doll upstairs in your dream house? We have to go now.'

'Where are we going?'

'Tokyo darling, and yes, we are going to that cat cafe again.'
