Enthusiasm of a child

Watch, she runs with her older sisters,
She could not understand why they are running,
They stopped in the kitchen and her eldest sister picked out a flower from a plastic pot,
The rest followed and the little one wants one too,
But she is too short to pick her own,
Seeing her sisters with flowers, she begins to cry telling them she wants one,
Her second sister scolded her telling her there are no more flowers,
But the little one insists and is now crying louder
The other sisters do not heed her cry, they instead comparing whose flower is the prettiest,
They laugh together when the third sister broke some petals,
The little one is still crying and sitting on the floor,
There are too much noise in the kitchen,
The mother comes, scolded the sisters for pulling out the flowers from the pot and ordered them to put them back,
All heed, the mother then takes the little one in her arms, comforting her not to cry,
Laughing, the three sisters race each other to the living room,
The little one struggling to be free, the mother let her go and she runs to her sisters,
Forgotten about the flower, she is now trying to understand what her sisters are doing,
Whatever it is, she is having fun..
