                               woke up early to the smell of pancakes cooking downstairs.  She quickly put on her favorite                               , the one with the pink                               down the front, and hurried downstairs.      When she got to the kitchen, her mother handed her a glass of                                juice and a plate full of pancakes,                                 ,                               , and                            .                                put as much as she could on her                               and smiled as she took that first gooey bite.      It wasn’t long before she had cleaned her entire plate and drunk all the                             juice.  Her mother asked her to go into the bathroom to wash her                               because they were very sticky.                              glanced at herself in the                             as she washed her .                                              
        She saw that her                               , the one with the pink                               , was  covered with stains from the                                 ,                                ,                                 , and                                juice.                               started to cry.  Her mother came into the  bathroom and saw immediately why she had been crying.  Her mother gently pulled off her                               and had it washed and dried in an hour.                                  was so  happy to be wearing her favorite                               again that she gave her mother lots of hugs and kisses.  Her mother laughed when                                 said, “All that crying has made me hungry again.  How about second helpings of pancakes,                                 ,                              , and                                ?"
