A few hours before the hotel leave. The parents where getting ready for their vacation away from their child. They have been planning this for months because they could never from a proper babysitter. Finally they found one and her name was Sarah, Sarah passed their interview with very high marks. They had told Sarah to arrive at 8:35pm on the day of their reservation.

Quickly and swiftly the mother moved to open the door and there was Sarah. She had a diamond shaped face, brown curly hair that was in a low pony tail with two strands hanging out next to each sideburns, she wore round black glasses that framed her face, her skin was a clear brown with no imperfections and she wore well fitted nice clothes.

Ellie was a cute baby boy, white pale-ish skin, ocean blue eyes, head full of ginger hair and chubby cheeks. Sarah couldn't get enough of his cuteness.
