Family Day

Mike woke up the next morning. He got up quietly, lest he wake Melanda. Then he went to Millie's room and sat down beside her while he waited for her to wake up.

Millie woke up quickly. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Mike and immediately smiled widely.

"Daddy, when did you come back?"

"While you were asleep. Good morning, my little princess." Mike gave Millie a morning kiss.

"Good morning, Daddy."

Millie hugged Mike's neck and hung on to Dad. She was picked up by Mike.

"Is Mommy awake?"

"Not yet. Let her sleep a little longer. Her body needs to rest."

Mike carried Millie into the washroom. He looked at Millie, who was standing on the small stool, while washing her face and brushing her teeth. He felt blessed.

"Let's go choose a beautiful dress now."

Mike carried Millie back to the room.

"Why? Are we going out?" Millie asked curiously.
