Making a change !

At age 5, 3 days after my birthday I could hear my dad downstairs saying,
"Ok I'm about to get her dressed."
I knew I was the only one he could be talking about because I was the only one he would have to help get dressed. I ran into my room well the room I shared with my "princess" of a sister.
"I'm about to go somewhere," I told her.
"How do you know that?"she asked.
"Because, I heard daddy say it,"I said.
"Well I don't care, I'm busy anyways," she said.
"You're only doing your hair", I said.
"O MY GOD GET OUT," she screamed.
By the time I was walking out the room my dad was coming upstairs telling me to get dressed, because my god father was taking me to get my birthday present. I ran into my room ignoring all my sister's smart comments.
"you're messing up my room,"
"Little girl get out."
"What is your problem?"
"It's not even that serious."
All her comments went in one ear and out the other. I kept searching for my clothes.
She screamed,"Daddy come get this girl."
I'm the baby I never understood why she thought I could get into trouble. My dad walked into the room.
"He's outside," he said.
"Ok I'm coming"
I threw on my clothes and dashed for the front door. I knew this was going to be good besides I was his only god child and he had no children of his own. I got into his car and he says,
"Hey baby girl"
I smiled and said, "Hey"
My god father bought me every new Elmo that had came out and I was sure he was buying me the new one, that had just came out. We pulled up to Toys R Us and walked into the store. As soon as I walked in a big blue poster caught my eyes the word new stood out in its bright yellow letters. It was the new robot animals.
"That's what I want," I said pointing at the poster.
"Ok,"he said.
I walked isle and grabbed both a dog and cat robot. He bought them both and I walked out the store with the biggest smile on my face. My birthday had been made.
