It was around 12:30 when Hope woke up. She stumbled through the hallway holding Momo, her stuffed cat, and wiping her eyes. She walked into the living room where her parents were watching Salor Moon. Hope climbed onto the couch and into her parents' arms.

"Good morning sweetheart how'd you sleep?" Shiro asked pausing the T.V. "Good." Hope mumbled cuddling closer into her parents' laps. "How about we go get you dressed and go get some food. Does that sound good?" Adam asked her softly untangling her hair with his fingers. Hope nodded in response. "Ok let's go get you ready love," Shiro said picking her up and walking down the hall to Hope's room. 

Hope picked out a pastel pink romper with pink sandals. Adam put her hair into a fishtail braid, which was her favorite hairstyle because it kept her hair out of her face and made her look adorable. Adam loves doings Hopes hair. He was suprisingly good at it and it made Hope feel like a prinsses which was a win for him. Hope twirled down the hallway giggling, Adam smiled following behind. 

"Papa, can Momo come with us pretty please?" Hope begged holding Momo close. "Of course princess but you got to hold on to her ok?" Adam responds crouching down to her hight. "I pinky promise I'll keep her safe," Hope says extends her pinky. Adam smiles locking his finger with hers. "Baby are you guys ready?" Shiro calls from the front door. He had already started the car and was ready to leave. "Yeah were on our way out." Adam awnsered picking Hope up and taking her to the car. 

Adam put Hope in her car seat and jumped into the frount seat. It was about a ten minute drive to the restraunt the whole time Hope talked about everything that was going on in school.She was still in kindergarden and many people say she talks too much but, it was rare that she was ever with both her parents because they worked so much. She was happy to finally have a day where she could be with them insted of a babysiter or teacher. 

Her parents both knew how hard it is for her when they worked constantly, but what could they do? After all thats how they paid the bills, even though they couldn't always be together they were as close as a family could be. They all learned to appriciate the small things. They all cherished every second they had together even if that was only in the morning on the 20 minute drive to school. They all wished they could have more then that, but for now they were happy with it.
