Sophy smiled, her daddy ruffled her hair and she pointed at the newly named boy, "Ken!" She looked over at him, he had a wet spot on his shirt. She ran to the kitchen and climbed onto the stool near the sink and grabbed some napkins. She stepped down as her parents chattered about him, her mother filling her father in on what's happened. She started to pat his shirt where the spill was. When she thought she did good enough, which honestly didn't make much of a difference, she handed him her precious duck. "Touch 'ere." She poked the button and it started to move awkwardly.
Sophy's dad stepped out of the door way and waved to Blaire's dad, calling him over for supper. The table was set with extra plates and utensils. Her mother told Sophy to go show Ken where to wash up for supper as she began to return to the kitchen to finish where she left off. The dough was rising, the salad soaking and the meat was marinating. Her mother was starting to get ready to cook the meat as Sophy's father got some glasses ready.
She called out the front door to Blaire to hurry if they were going to eat with them and she grabbed Ken's hand and rushed him towards the bathroom. "Up!" She pointed at the sink. She got a wash cloth and wet it, she was standing atop of a stool, leaving the other half for Ken or Blaire to step on. She wet the wash cloth and wiped her face then handed it to him. "Wash ya face, 'n' hands! Clean." She placed the bar of soap in her hands and wet it, holding it in the sink she soaped up. After finishing washing up she stepped down and smiled.
Today was a very good day!
