Episode 3
By: sharpaygirl123
It's Saturday today. The funeral was yesterday. Brooke is at Tammy's mom's house until they discuss the will and the other legal situatins. Brooke has been crying for her mommy. She was a mommy's girl.
With Lizzie and Sarah:
"Good morning, baby girl!" Lizzie said cheerfully as she came into Sarah's room. Sarah squealed and giggled happily when she saw her mommy. Lizzie loved it when she surprised Sarah, and Sarah got so happy.
"Well today my little angel, we're going to go to the park and go grocery shopping. But for now, let's give you some milk, a bath, and get you changed." Lizzie said cheerfully. Lizzie already had a shower and got dressed before she came to see Sarah. She is wearing a pink t-shirt, dark blue jeans, tennis shoes, and her hair is in a bun.
As Lizzie gave Sarah her bath, Sarah was splashing around and giggling.
"You silly little girl!" Lizzie said, tickling Sarah. They finished her bath and got her dressed.
Just then, Lizzie's phone rang.
"Hello?" Lizzie answered.
"Is this Lizzie Spaulding?" a lady asked.
"Yes it is." Lizzie said.
"I'm so sorry to say, but your friends Jonathan and Tammy Randall died last Wednesday." the lady said sadly.
"Oh." was all Lizzie could manage to say without crying. Sarah was in her lap, so she didn't want to start crying.
"Ms. Spaulding, you were left on the will to take care of Brooke." the lady said.
"Wait a second. Who is Brooke?" Lizzie asked confused.
"Brooke is their baby. I'm sorry, you didn't know?" the lady asked.
"N...no. I didn't. Can we meet somewhere to discuss this?" Lizzie asked.
"Sure. Where would you like to meet?" the lady asked.
"Um well, I was about to take my daughter to the park. Would it be ok to meet there?" Lizzie asked.
"Sure, Ms. Spaulding. I'll see you there in a few mintes." the lady said about to hang up.
"Wait!" Lizzie shouted.
"Yes, Ms. Spaulding?" the lady asked.
"Sorry. Would you bring Brooke and the papers necessary for me to get custody of her?" Lizzie asked.
"Yes, sure Ms. Spaulding." the lady said.
"Thank-you." Lizzie said, and they hung up.
"Well, Sarah baby. We better get going. We have a busy day today." Lizzie said, and Sarah just smiled. Lizzie went and got an extra car-seat from Sarah's nursery, and they left.
When they got to the park, Sarah squealed and giggled happily. They were the only ones there besides a lady with a briefcase and a baby. Lizzie figured that had to be the lady that she talked to on the phone and Brooke. Lizzie walked over to the lady while pushing Sarah in the stroller.
"Hi. I'm Lizzie Spaulding, and this is my daughter, Sarah." Lizzie said.
"Well, hi. I'm Belle Matthews, and this is Brooke." she said.
"May I see the papers so I can sign them and take little Brooke?" Lizzie asked sweetly.
"Oh. Right." the lady said as she took the papers out of her briefcase. Lizzie signed them and took Brooke from the lady. Then, the lady started walking away.
"Wait! What is her birthday, and how old is she?" Lizzie asked, stopping the lady from walking away.
"She is 10 months old now. Her birthday is April 30th." the lady said and then she walked away again.
"Hey there, sweet Brooke. You can call me mommy or Auntie Lizzie or whatever you want to. I want you to know that I'm never going to try to take the place of your mommy, angel." Lizzie said smiling. Brooke and Sarah both smiled up at her.Then and there, Lizzie felt like the luckiest girl ever to be alive.
"Okay, girlies. Let's go grocery shopping now." Lizzie said as she got both of their strollers and began pushing them to the car. When she got them to the car, she put each of them in their car-seats and drove to the store.
When they got to store, she had a hard time carrying both of the babies to a buggy, but she made it. She pushed the buggy to the baby section, and got Brooke and Sarah each two church dresses. She bought Brooke a crib, a diaper bag, some other clothes, and a baby monitor. She also brought three packs of diapers.
Just then, while they were standing in the check-out line, Sarah said her very first words.
"wuv mama." Sarah said smiling while looking up at Lizzie. Lizzie was in awe.
"I love you too, Sarah sweetheart. You too Brooke angel. I love you both so much, and I don't know what I'd do without you!" Lizzie said almost in tears. Brooke and Sarah just stared up at her and smiled.
