Chapter 10: Jenny's Birthday
Hey everyone! I'm back with another chapter! In the last chapter, Dory learned how to read. In this chapter, they'll be celebrating Jenny's birthday. Awesome!
Sandrastar1: Sure, in the next chapter there will be a thunderstorm.
SmolHandyman: Yeah, she was born in a aquairum, so that's why she knows how to read.
Charlie woke up very early. He yawned and stretched. He looked at Jenny who was sleeping and smiled. Today was Jenny's birthday. It was a special day for her. He got out of his house and swam to Dory who was sleeping in her tube.
"Dory," he said as he gently stroked her.
Dory felt her father stroking her. She slowly opened her eyes. She yawned and rubbed her eyes. "Morning, Daddy."
"Morning, Kelpcake. Do you know what today is?" He asked. He told Dory yesterday what today is.
"Um," she thought. She looked down and saw Jenny sleeping. She suddenly remembered. "It's Mommy's birthday!"
Charlie smiled when Dory remembered it was Jenny's birthday. "Exactly. We are waking up early because we need to get your mother's presents before she wakes up."
"What does Mommy like?" Dory asked.
"Can you remember what she likes?" Charlie said, trying to see if she remembers.
"Hmm," she thought. She then froze up, remembering what Jenny likes.

"Mommy, look at this!" Dory said, looking at the purple shell.
"What is it, honey?" Jenny asked.
"It's a purple shell!"
Jenny looked at the purple shell and smiled. "Purple shells are my favorite."
Dory putted her fins on the shell, trying to lift it up.
Jenny helped Dory pick up the shell. Jenny glanced at the shell in her fins, then looked at her daughter. She kissed her on the cheek. "Thank you for showing me this, sweetie."
Dory giggled. "You're welcome, Mommy."

"Mommy loves purple shells!" Dory said, happy that she remembered.
"That's right, Kelpcake. Before you were born, your mother and I loved to collect shells for fun. Your mother mostly collected the purple ones," Charlie explained.
"Cool! Can we get some purple shells for Mommy?"
"After we eat breakfast. I don't want to collect shells on an empty stomach."
Dory giggled. "Okay, Daddy."
They both swam off to eat breakfast.
After breakfast, they both went to look for purple shells. Dory saw a little purple shell. She picked it up. "I found one!"
"Good job, Dory," Charlie said.
"Thanks, Daddy."
After a while, they both collected a lot of purple shells.
"That's a lot of shells," Dory said, staring at the shells.
Charlie giggled. "Yep! We have to hide the shells so your mother doesn't see them."
"Okay." They both hid the shells in some kelp.
Later, Jenny woke up. She smiled and swam out of the house.
Dory instantly saw Jenny. "Happy birthday, Mommy!" She hugged her.
"Thank you, sweetie." She stroked her daughter.
Charlie swam to his wife. "Happy birthday, sweetheart." He hugged and kissed her.
"Thanks, honey." She kissed him back.
Jenny swam over to where she usually ate. She saw that breakfast was already out for her.
"We brought you breakfast, Mommy! You don't have to get breakfast for yourself," Dory said.
"Aww, that's so sweet of you guys," she said gratefully.
After she ate breakfast, Dory and Charlie swam over to the kelp. "We got presents for you, Mommy!" Dory exclaimed.
"How lovely. Let me see them."
Dory and Charlie brought out a lot of purple shells.
Jenny gasped. "Purple shells! My favorite!"
They decorated the house with purple shells in front of it.
After a few minutes has passed, there was purple shells in front of the house.
"It's beautiful!" She admired each and everyone of the purple shells. "Thanks guys." She kissed them both.
"Are you enjoying your birthday, honey?" Charlie asked.
"Yes. This has been the best birthday I have ever had." She hugged Charlie. Dory joined in the hug.
They then separated. "What do you want to do for the rest of your birthday, Mommy?" Dory said.
"Swim around the tank."
"Okay, let's do that now."
Jenny spent the rest of her birthday swimming around the tank. Dory loved this day. It has been a great day for her and her family.
