Considering options...

So, upon thinking about the situation, I realized Ella has no real incentive to leave her current location. Why would you want to leave a consistently warm place, where your every need is met at your demand. Sure, it's an itty bitty living space, but the essentials are there and you don't have to work for any of it. Movement for the most part tends to be effortless thanks to all of the fluid you're floating in. You pack on pounds daily and get this... it's expected. Someone observes you from a distance and gets absurdly excited about every little thing you do. The only downside is you occasionally have to entertain the sudden bump from people pushing on you to feel you move or kick. So your personal space gets invaded on occasion... big deal right?

The way I see it, Ella finds herself considering her options at this moment. Leave the warm known for a most uncertain unknown. Do I really want to join these two crazy people on the outside who keep referring to themselves as "mommy" and "daddy" respectively. I can hear her thoughts now, "the mommy one seems to be okay. It appears that I am closest to her. Pretty sure that's her heartbeat I hear. Either that or somebody keeps a really good beat. I'm also pretty sure she's the one taking care of me, making sure I get what I need. It's that daddy guy I'm not certain about. The daddy's voice sounds different... sounds deeper. I find it soothing actually. The daddy keeps saying I'm his little girl, I'm not sure what that is, but I know I like to hear him talk. I've heard the mommy and daddy talking a good bit now and I know one thing for sure they laugh a lot at this thing called Jack. I've also heard them talk about loving one another and I'm pretty sure that's a good thing. My only concern... the daddy makes up weird songs and his singing is ah, okay at best... I'm afraid that may embarrass me a little. It clearly embarrasses the mommy."


Clearly, Ella needs to consider her options. Deciding to join Sara and I out her in the real world is a big decision and not one that should be rushed. You weigh those options sweetheart. The mommy and the daddy will be here waiting, albeit impatiently and anxiously. This not the time to be like your mother... just make up your mind. That's a joke Ella. Jokes are those things that the mommy and the daddy laugh about sometimes. Take your time, just get here quickly would you!

The reality being, the joke is on the mommy and the daddy. Ella runs the show and she knows it. She already thrives off that attention and power. Oh my, our lives are ruined... in the best way possible of course. Just know little Ella, your current living space is only going to get smaller and smaller... think about that.
