People ask me, "What's your day like, Lily? What do you do on a normal day?"

So I tell them.

Usually I get up around 9:00am. I always call for my mom and dad to come to my room, where they give me cuddles and hugs and I stretch my body to get it all warmed up for the day. They always seemed to be very interested in how I slept. I always tell them, "Great!" or "Super!".

Then I usually get to watch a little bit of television, although not always. I like to sit on the sofa with my friends, Mickey, Minnie, Nala, and Daphne. We usually watch Dora and Blues Clues in the morning. My dad will sit with me some of the time, but usually he's in his office typing at his computer. Usually I get to eat a little bit of breakfast while I watch tv. My mom will make me some eggs or waffles or pop-tarts or oatmeal or toast. I always have a glass of milk with my breakfast.

On some mornings I might have a shower before getting dressed. I like to take a shower in my parents bathroom. They have a shower on a hose which I can spray where-ever I want while I sit on the shower floor.

Then, I'll get dressed for the day. On some days I'm very particular about what I like to wear. My dad and I went shopping a while ago and got a nice summer dress. It's red, my favorite color. Some of the time it's in the washing machine and I get quite disappointed.

Usually I have something to do during the day. Either a play date or a class or going to a park. Lately, my mom has been taking me to a nice place where she exercises and I play with some other kids in a big room. Some days my parents have errands they have to get done and I go along for the ride.

I've been having swimming class lately. It's late in the day and we come home and eat dinner afterwards right away. After dinner, my mom and dad and I all go for a walk around the block. Usually we see a cat named Sagwah. I like to pet her and watch when she scratches her claws on a scratching post. She always wants to follow me home but my parents always chase her back to her owners house. I like her quite a bit.

Then I'll play for a while and have a night time snack and take my vitamin. My mom then usually puts me to bed and reads me a couple of stories. On some nights I like to listen to stories on the stereo and follow along in a book. My current favorite stories to listen to are Henry and Mudge. Henry is a little boy and Mudge is his dog. Other nights I like to listen to the music from one of my movies - like Tarzan or Alladin. Usually, I fall asleep around 11:00pm.

That's my day.
