"Ella and Me"

"Ella and Me"

There once was two happy kids named L and Ella. They loved to play with each other every day. And they were brother and sister. Together they made a great team and made the world a better place for kids. Ella was a tiny baby and L was her older brother who watched over her. Ella had to live at the hospital for quite a long time because she was a preemie baby and very tiny. The nurses and the doctors helped Ella stay healthy and alive and kept her safe. L had to wait a long time before she could come home. He visited her often and read her stories so she would not be lonely. He thought that she was beautiful and loved her very much. To him she looked like a butterfly just coming out of her cocoon because her eyes were not open. He always wanted to be near her and someday when they were grown up he wanted to live next door to her and be her neighbor. Until then L would continue to visit her and he would tell other people about her and what it is like to be kept in the hospital. So that they will understand what it is like to be in the hospital and not be scared.
