My small moment

            I shoved the rest of my hot dog into my mouth, forcing it down my throat. I rushed into the hospital room, quickly stopping as I stared at my mom. She was caressing a small baby girl in her hands, admiring all the delicate characteristics packed into the precious little gift.
             "Do you want to hold her?" my mom asked, as I carefully stalked towards the bed. I excitedly reached for the baby, and my mom handed her to me as she glared at me for being so careless. I  cradled her in my arms and sat down in the chair by a window over looking the parking lot. I then found myself hypnotized by two bright, lively pools of baby blue eyes that burned into my soul. A passing nurse gazed at the wriggling baby resting in my arms.
              "If I where you I would cherish that gorgeous girl forever" she smiled.
"Trust me, we will" I whispered, lost in my baby sisters future.
