Ashley POV:

I watched as Josephine played on the playground with the other kids. It was a hot summer day and the sprinklers were on. She would Run threw the sprinkler then go down the slide. I smiled at myself, she's such a sweet child, like the perfect daughter. 

" Josephine! Come on let's go!" I called. She ran over to me and pouted. 

" why do we have to go now?" She wined. 

" because we have been here for an hour. And don't you want ice cream?" I asked. Her face then lit up, making me chuckle. 

" yes!" She cheered.  

" okay let's go then." I then grabbed her hand and walked her to the car. I dried her off with towel before she got in to the car so she would be confertable. I then put her in her car seat and buckled her in, kissing her on the forehead causing her to giggle. I smiled to myself and got in the drivers seat and drive off. 

" what flavor do you want honey?" 

" Strawberry!" She said cheerfully 

" what are you getting daddy?" 

" Vanilla." 

" you always get vanilla." Josephine giggled. I smiled. 

" that's because I really like Vanilla." I told her. She just giggled. We finally arrived at the ice cream shop. I took her out of her seat and held her hand as we walked to the door. I opened the door and she ran to the counter. I chuckle to myself and walked up to the counter as well. 

" welcome to Barbra's ice cream shop! How many cones would you like?" The lady behind the counter asked. 

" two please."  

" small medium or lArge?" 

" two small."

" that'll be $5.30." I was surprised with how cheep it was. I handed her the money and I guided Josephine to a table. She didn't hesitate to dig right into her ice cream. She ate it pretty fast. 

" done!" She said. She had strawberry ice cream all over her face. I laughed to myself and took a napkin and wiped Her face. When I was finished I threw away the napkins and we went back to the car. I put her in her car seat and was about to go into the car until me phone started to ring. It was Andy. I answered.
