Once Upon a Time
My Family
Once upon a time, in a small house on a sunny street, lived a little girl named Lily. Lily lived with her mommy, daddy, and her little brother, Max. They were a happy family. They loved each other very much.
Every morning, Lily would wake up and see her mommy cooking breakfast in the kitchen. Lily loved the smell of pancakes and bacon. She would help set the table while her daddy read the newspaper. Max would giggle and clap his hands, waiting for his breakfast.
After breakfast, it was time for Lily to go to school. She grabbed her backpack, hugged her mommy and daddy, and waved goodbye to Max. They would take turns walking her to school every day.
At school, Lily had many friends. They played together, learned new things, and had lots of fun. But Lily always missed her family when she was at school. She couldn't wait to see them again.
In the afternoon, Lily's mommy picked her up from school. They would walk hand in hand, talking about their day. Lily would tell her mommy all the exciting things she had learned and show her the drawings she made in class.
When they reached home, Lily's daddy was waiting for them. He had a surprise for Lily. He had built a swing in the backyard, just for her. Lily's eyes sparkled with joy as she jumped onto the swing. Daddy pushed her higher and higher, making her giggle with delight.
Max would crawl around the backyard, trying to catch butterflies. Lily and her mommy and daddy would laugh and cheer him on. They loved spending time together as a family.
After playing outside, it was time for dinner. Lily's mommy cooked delicious meals every day. They all sat around the table, holding hands, and saying a little prayer. They would talk about their day, laugh, and share stories. It was their special time to be together.
After dinner, it was time for Lily to go to bed. She brushed her teeth with her mommy's help and put on her favorite pajamas. Daddy would read her a bedtime story, and mommy would tuck her in with a warm hug and a kiss on the forehead. Lily felt safe and loved as she fell asleep.
Every day, Lily felt grateful for her loving family. They were always there for her, making her smile, and helping her grow. She knew that no matter what, her family would always be by her side.
