You glanced in the mirror to see that your two year old son, Alfred, was fast asleep in the back seat of your car. You smiled to yourself, looking back to the road.
Today was the day you were going to show Alfred the house you bought. Alfred has spent the first two years of his life in a small apartment with only one bedroom, barely enough space for a child to grow up in. So you've been looking for a house with all of the right requirements.
While you were thinking, you heard Alfred yawn. You looked back in the mirror to see Alfred stretching his limbs.
"Did you have a good nap?" You asked him. He nodded, smiling brightly. "Are we almost there?" Alfred asked. "Just a few more miles, and we'll be there." You hummed as you turned the steering wheal.
A few minutes later, you were unbuckling Alfred's seat belt so he could get out of the car. You both stood on the front lawn, getting a good look at the front of the house. It had cream colored paint and white lining, the front lawn well groomed from the last homeowners.
"Let's go inside, shall we?" You offered you hand to Alfred, which he happily excepted. Together, the both of you walked through the front door.
You crinkled your nose at the dark green walls, and looked down at Alfred. "You want to help me pick out colors for the walls before we get some furniture in?" You asked him. Alfred nodded happily, letting go of your hand so he could go explore more.
You sighed happily. This house was going to be your new home.
~Timeskip~
You pulled down the large shirt over Alfred's head. You both just came back from picking out colors for the walls of your new house. The first room you were going to paint was Alfred's new room. He picked out sky blue and a nice forest green, which gave you the idea to paint his room to look like a forest.
You balanced yourself on a wooden stool to paint the upper part of the wall blue. Alfred giggled as he drew little pictures on the lower part of the wall with crayons. It didn't matter that much because you were just going to paint over it anyway.
When you finished with the sky, you stepped down from the stool. You suddenly had an idea, and quickly put a large blue dot on Alfred's nose. You giggled as Alfred went cross-eyed trying to see the dot.
It took practically all day, but soon the whole house was painted, each room having it's own color. It was already dark out, and there wasn't furniture in the house yet. You settled on dragging a mattress into Alfred's room and both of you slept on it.
I don't know how long this will be, but I plan on it to be from when America was a toddler to after he graduates high school. I plan on it being super cute too :3
