"Wake up, Alice!"

I roll over and face the wall.

"Wakey, wakey, cereal and milk!" mom shouts loudly.

"Just leave me alone!"

"No." The both state 'matter of factly'.

"UGHHH." I roll over and pull the blankets over my head.

"DOG PILE!"

Before I have a chance to get up two bodies plop on top of me.

"OUCH!"

"GET UP!"

They both lay on me for about twenty seconds laughing and then hop up like nothing happened.

10:30

"Cinnamon toast crunch or frosted flakes?" Mom asks

"Cinnamon."

"Okie dokey!"

She pours a bowl full of cereal and a teaspoon of milk. I mean not literally but its what it feels like. My mom can't even make a bowl of cereal.

"Thanks mom"

"Thanks mom" Lilly smiles.

11:00

"Please let me do you makeup!?" Lilly begs as we sit on the bed.

"No."

"Please!"

"No."

"Plea-"

"Ok I guess just don't do a horrible job."

"Way to insult someone." She smiles at me.

She reaches over and grabs the sephora bag and begins to paste makeup onto my skin.

Twenty minutes go by and she starts clapping.

"You look great!"

I grab a mirror and gasp. I have perfect wings, and pink glossy lips. I look natural yet I can't even recognize myself. I put on the fuzzy sweater Lilly picked out and listened to the makeup instructions she's giving me.

"Remember DO NOT PUT MORE THAT THREE MASCARAS ON, YOU WILL LOOK LIKE A SPIDER!"

12:30

"We're running late!" My mother rushes.

"You should have packed yesterday like I did."

"Oh, hush!"

"Go on out to the car I'll be there in a sec!" She screams from across the house.

Lilly and I walk out packing our stuff.

She pulls me into a hug.

"Have fun, and text me all the time!"

"I will, I will!"

"Bye!" She says as she hops in her car.

"Bye." I wave as she pulls out.

Once she's far enough down the road that I can't see her I hop in the car and wait. Five minutes later my mom is running out the door with two suit cases and three bags.

I did a little research and found that it will take a day and a couple hours to get there minus sleep, pit stops, and my moms slow driving.

Yay.

Two hole days of mother daughter time.

Grand.

"Hello sweet cheeks!"
