There are quite a number of brightly colored plastic things all over the floor in Milliways. We're talking, easily thirty of each four types of manipulatives.

All

Over

The

Floor

You have not even SEEN a mess before you have seen the way a toddler can mess up a room with a bunch of tiny plastic toys. As for the toddler in question, she is planted somewhere in the middle of the mess, playing with the toys. She is still wearing the shirt with names all over it (BOO! being the prominent one) and the house shoes that jingle and sing. Every once in awhile she'll wiggle her feet and either jinglejingle or "If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands" can be heard. And next to her is a pink adult sized throw made out of what is possibly the softest material ever.

Oh the fun she's having.

Each of the sounds that the tiny girl produces is like a direct tickling, warming the center of her chest and rising until she can't do anything but laugh to free it.

The weight falling onto her is one that she doesn't expect. Before she can do more than sit upright again though, she receives a hug and a loud proclamation directly to her ear.

Lucie laughs. She holds her, tightly, and doesn't even realize her lips press a grateful kiss against the child's soft brown hair behind her ear. She feels so happy that she could cry.

..never got to hold him, even once... Not even once.

She doesn't think she can let go.

Lucrecia looks in the direction that the girl indicates. She quickly brushes at the corners of her eyes to be sure, and then nods.

"That was a lot of fun!" She agrees, smiling as she looks back to the baby girl inches before her. Her fingers gently muse the back of her neatly pigtailed hair. The woman is no longer able to really focus on anything else. "So pretty."

It's hard, but Lucrecia lets her go when she wiggles, thinking the girl wants to be set down again to hear her shoes singing at full force.

"Pretty shoes," Lucrecia confirms, and she claps her hands twice. Maybe to make more noise, or applaud the girl showing off her footwear. She isn't really sure which but she's still having fun.

She can't help but to cast a quick gaze to the door, expecting her parents to come in to take her back at any moment.
