"Mommy?"
Startled, Cassidy was pulled back to reality.
She snapped out of her thoughts and placed the picture frame back on the coffee table. Then, she looked down to find her daughter, Adelynn, staring up at her. She wondered just how long she had been staring at their family picture.
"I can't put the ribbon on, Mommy. It keeps slipping. Can you put it on for me?"
"Of course, honey."
With delight, she took the ribbon from her hand. She then began to tie it around her ponytail, making sure to leave a nice, beautiful bow.
Once Cassidy was done, Adelynn turned back around and beamed at her happily before walking over to the sofa to grab her teddy bear.
"Seems like you're all ready to go…" she said as she patted her head, giving her a smile of her own.
"That dress looks really cute on you. I'm sure Daddy will love it."
"Really…?!" she blurted out ecstatically while she held her teddy bear closer to her chest.
