Mid-leafall, Early hours of the Morning:
Ma says winter is coming. She tells us that soon all the leaves will fall and the trees will become bare and barren for many moons. It will be dark and cold almost all day. I wonder what I am to do during such a miserable sounding time. Will I watch as the world changes around me, humming the tunes Ma does along with my siblings? I don't wish for that...but Ma always, always mews that we will not stay children for long so we should enjoy the fleeting time we have. Ma is usually right. I wonder how she learned so much. Will I be as smart as her one day? I hope so.
I'd like to be tall, like Pa, but just as pretty as Ma with her soft fur and amber eyes. Pa is nice, though he's always away. I wish he'd stay with us a bit longer, but Ma says he's very busy so we don't see him much. My older sister Lottie makes time for us though. She's very smart as well and tells us lots of stories that are hard to believe but are wonderful anyways. I love Lottie, she's always kind to us and never raises her voice. I want to be like her as well as Ma. I hope to be just like the both of them when I grow up.
