Papa is working today so I started cleaning and making tea, papa loves it when he comes home to a clean house and the smell of food on the table. I made his favourite food today Spaghetti Bolognese and I made us a  Linzer torte that is an Austrian cake.

"Hazel I am home" Papa said.

"Hello papa" I said.

"What is that lovely smell?" Papa asked.

"I made your favourite food Spaghetti Bolognese and for desert I made a Linzer torte" I said.

"Well aren't you a good girl" Papa said.

He only says that sometimes most of the time he makes me stand in a corner and makes me say 'I am a bad girl' I really was a bad girl though.

He sits in his seat which is next to the window and I put the 2 pots on the table and served the food out.

"Shall we say grace?" Papa asks.

"Yes" I said.

We put our hands together.

"Thank you Lord for this lovely food and bless this lovely house amen" Papa said.

"Amen" I said.

Papa put a mouthful of spaghetti in his mouth.

"How is it?" I ask hoping it was good.

"Fabulous darling" he said.

I smiled than I started eating after we had finished I clean up and put 2 bowls on the table I carry the desert onto the table and I cut it up and give him one piece and I give myself a piece.

"How is it Papa?" I asked.

"Lecker" Papa said.

Lecker is the Austrian word for delicious.

"Danke" I said meaning thank you.

"Hazel I have some good news for you" Papa says.

"What is that?" I ask.

"I have heard you singing so I have arranged for you to have music lessons" he says.

"Really?" I said happily.

"Yes, once a week on a Wednesday from 5 till 6" Papa said.

I get up and hug papa.

"Thank you so much" I said.

""Your welcome" Papa said.

After tea I cleaned up and after I finished I went into my room and put my head phones on and listened to Birdy's songs I first listened to Wings then T-shirt then Not about Angels then Skinny love I had all of her albums and I could never get enough of her songs I would mouth the words. As I listened to her songs I would write my story's and then when I had enough I would get out my sketchbook and start drawing.

I looked at the time it was 8 I got ready for bed and then I fall asleep. I didn't want Papa to get angry at me because I was still awake so I made him happy and I went to bed.

Wednesday

Today I was so excited papa was taking me to my first lesson with my teacher Ellie, papa knows her from work and she seems really nice she and papa dated for a while but it didn't work out but they are still friends which is good.

"So are you ready for your lesson?" Papa asked.

"Yes I am Papa" I said.

He takes me to my lesson. After it finished papa picked me up I told him all about it, I sang a lot of songs and she taught me a bit of piano I feel in love with.
