Amelia's POV

"Amy, you ready?" Mommy asks from the kitchen.

"Yeah." I say skipping into the kitchen in the pink dress mommy got me. Mommy sets chocolate chip pancakes on the table. She starts cutting up my pancakes before handing me a fork.

"Good morning." Chris says walking into the kitchen. He kisses the top of my head before going over and kissing mommy on the check.

"Ew, protect my baby eyes." I say covering my eyes with my hands. Mommy and Chris both start laughing.

"Oh Amelia." Mommy says still laughing a little. I start eating my pancakes. I don't eat very much since I just want to get to Disneyland. I finish eating and go over to the trash can. I dump the few pieces I still had on my plate on the trash and set my plate in the sink.

"Amy, can you get your shoes on while I finish the dishes?" Mommy asks. I nod and walk over to the mud room and slip my shoes on. I walk back to the kitchen and sit on Chris's lap. I lean back and he wraps his arms around.

"That's cute." Mommy says holding up her phone, probably taking a picture.

"I know I am." I say smiling. Mommy laughs again finishing washing the dishes.

"Alright, lets go." Mommy says. Chris sets me on the floor and we all head to the car. Mommy helps me into the car and then she gets in the car herself. We drive off to Disneyland. I bounce around in my seat the whole ride. It's a short ride. About twenty minutes since Mommy lives really close. I'm not actually sure where we live though. This was the longest twenty minutes ever.

We finally make it to Disneyland and mommy comes over to help me out of my car seat. She sets me down on the ground before shutting the door.

"Stay close, okay honey? This is a big place filled with a lot of people. I don't want to lose you." Mommy says kneeling down in front of me.

"You won't lose me mommy. I'll stay by you the whole time." I say smiling.

"Good. I love you Amelia." Mommy says kissing me top of my head.

"I love you too mommy." I say. Mommy smiles at me while grabbing my hand. I look over at Chris and grab his hand as well. Look at us, were the small yet great Benoist and Wood family. I guess.

...

"Last ride, okay Amy?" Mommy asks. I don't think she was really looking for an answer but I nodded just in case. Today has been really fun. We've gone on almost every ride in the park. Mommy bought me Minnie Mouse ears when we went for lunch. They have a pink polka dot bow around one of the ears. We walk to a ride that has a dragon on the front. It looks really fun.

We wait about twenty minutes before we can go on the ride. Mommy and Chris sit on one end of the ride while I sit across from them. The ride starts up and we start spinning around.

The ride stops just as fast as it started. Mom and Chris get off the ride but have to help me get out since I am still struggling getting seat belts undone. Mommy picks me up and starts carrying me back to the car.

"How was this for your first birthday with me?" I ask.

"Best birthday ever." I say. Mommy gives me a kiss on the cheek.

"I'm glad." She says smiling. Chris wraps his arm over Mommy and we walk out of the park.
