Mom came to wake us up for the long day. 25 hours and a half. She came up to me and said in almost a whisper

” Alicia, time to get…” She had no time to finish the sentence because I was awake and I jumped in to her arms. At one moment, I was thinking that she was going to have a heart attack but that did not happen.
“Are you going to wake Leendert up now?” I asked hopping she would say yes.
“No, he has been up since 6:30.” She answered. I got up and got everything I could do without hurting my heel.
“Let’s go to lunch.” Mom said happily.
“You mean breakfast, right?” I asked. She rolled her eyes, sighed her happy sight and nodded. I could not help a giggle after Leendert started to laugh. We laughed a little but mom shushed us that other people might be sleeping now.we let out one more laugh and got quiet like mom had told us. My happiness in that moment was never to forget. I still had some time before we where going to go to breakfast. I plopped down on to the bed I was sleeping in and took the book that was next to me. The book was about things around the world. I had gotten it the day before, that was the last day of school for the year, the teachers gave it to me to say good bye. The best is that they all signed it.
“Come on. We should get some breakfast now. We will be leaving soon.” Mom told us before I could open the book. I put it away in a bag and went out the room wile tying my hair in a pony tale.
