"Richy! Look who we brought home for you", I heard my mother call out for me.
I ran to the living room and there they were: my mother, my father and... My new little sister! While slowly walking over to them I kept my eyes on her little head.
"Come over here big guy", my dad said. "Meet Lizzie".
"She's beautiful, she has the face of a doll", I whispered full of wonder.
"Do you like her?", my dad asked.
I answered with a small nod and watched closely as my new-born sibling wrapped her small hand around my index finger. Her eyes were closed and her eyelids fluttered. She was asleep, but she didn't let go of my finger.
"I am glad you like her, because have to take care of her and protect her. You are not just a 5-year old anymore, Richy. You're a big boy now.", my dad said smiling down at me.
I looked up at him.
"I will", I said with all seriousness.
After those words I looked back at my baby sister.
"I promised I will Lizzie", I promised.
I held her hand for a few more minutes and kissed her cheek before my dad carried me up to my room and tugged me into bed. Not long after that drifted to sleep, dreaming about growing up with my sibling... Growing up with Lizzie.|
