Emily and Lily

by Keegan H.

Emily_Lily:

Emily is a mom. Her job is to pick flowers for a flower shop. Lily is Emily's two-year-old daughter.

Lily was sitting in a cart with flowers at the top of a hill, watching her mom pick some flowers in the meadow. Lily thought that there were a bazillion flowers in the meadow, but her mom knew that there were only a million left. She had just picked two bouquets, which were five flowers each.

A dog was running to catch a ball and ran behind the cart. The dog accidentally kicked the cart and it started rolling down the hill! The cart tipped over, and Lily fell in the river, but she didn't get hurt, and started laughing.

When Emily turned around, she saw Lily playing in the river. Emily walked down the hill and said, “You silly goose! You know you will have to take a bath!”

That morning her mom had said, "Don’t go in the river, because it is dirty."

Lily said, "Huh?" She had forgotten that the river was dirty. Then Emily picked up Lily and looked for the cart. The cart was lying on the ground and the flowers were everywhere!

Nearby, a dog trainer named Joey heard Emily and thought, "Is that a girl or a boy talking?" He decided to walk over and see. His dog, Max, followed him. He saw her before she saw him, and thought, "She's hot!"

The next moment she saw him, and thought, "Why is he staring at me like that?" But then she thought, "Wow, he's cute!"

Lily wondered, "What's going on?"

They both said at the same time, "I love you!" At that moment, Joey and Emily fell in love!

A month later they got married. Lily and the dog were friends and shared a room!
