Walking down the stairs with her pink water can in her hand, Stacy let out a long yawn after a very long night working in the ER, Walking over to the side of her home to turn the taps on for her long green hose so she could fill her water can up so she could water her garden.

Putting the head of the house into her watering can, Stacy ran her hand through her "man it's going to be a hot one today" she looked up at the clear blue sky. Feeling her warm sun beating down onto her she slowly pulled her sunglasses out of her apron as she slowly puts it onto her face "much better now I can see what I'm doing" she quietly laughs to herself.

Turning the taps off with her left hand while pulling the hose out of the watering can with her right, faint snoring caught her attention, "Hello? Is anyone there" she called in a hushed voice so she wouldn't wake up whoever the snoring belongs too.

Slowly making her way over to her beautiful tulips the snoring got a little louder so ever so gently Stacy pushed them over to the side. Scanning the flower bed with her light green eyes, she spotted a tiny boy with what looked like a snake tail "where are ya parents little one" she whispered.

Watching the young boy sleeping away in her flower Stacy gently slid her hand underneath his sleeping form "I'm going to keep you safe in my home little one until I find your parents" she whispers as she carful running her finger over his brown hair.

Quietly making her way to the door she felt something hing wrapping around her middle finger, quietly glancing down at her hand a warm smile came onto her face when she saw the young boy wrapping his tail around hit "yep...you're a cutie" she smiled
