[Popo Zeb](JL934VY6) was a lively 7-year-old girl with short curly hair and sparkling eyes. Her mornings always started with a bang, and today was no different. As her mom, [Rozi Hina](RSMQQ5LT), juggled preparing breakfast and getting ready for work, Popo decided to test her pogo stick inside the living room, leaving tiny dents in the carpet.

“Popo, stop that this instant!” Rozi called as she flipped a pancake. But by then, Popo had already knocked over a vase, sending flowers and water everywhere. ‘Oops!’ Popo said, giggling. Rozi sighed, knowing it was going to be a long day.

After breakfast, Rozi reminded Popo to pack her school bag, but Popo got distracted by her art supplies. One minute she was packing, and the next, she was painting herself a rainbow mustache with markers! ‘I’m an artist!’ she declared.

Time was slipping away, and Rozi still needed to prepare for her big meeting. She asked Popo to grab her school shoes, but Popo thought it would be funny to wear mismatched socks and shiny party shoes instead.

As they hurried out the door, Popo’s lunchbox toppled open, spilling sandwiches and juice all over the sidewalk. Rozi knelt down to clean it up while Popo chased after a butterfly, completely unfazed.

After dropping Popo at school, Rozi arrived late to her office. Her coworkers noticed she had pink glitter in her hair from Popo’s earlier escapades. ‘What a morning!’ Rozi laughed with them, but she couldn’t help but worry about her daughter.

Meanwhile, at school, Popo realized she forgot her homework! Her teacher asked what happened, and Popo explained about the ‘hectic morning’ in such a funny way that everyone in class couldn’t stop giggling.

When school ended, Popo apologized to her mom for making the day so messy. Rozi hugged her tightly and said, ‘Even amidst the chaos, I love your bright energy, Popo. But we must learn to be more organized!’

The next morning, Popo decided to surprise her mom by packing her own school bag and setting the breakfast table. Though it wasn’t perfect, Rozi was impressed with her effort and gave her a big hug.

From that day on, Popo tried her best to be more helpful in the mornings. She realized that responsibility made her mother—and herself—happier. And even though the days were still busy, they tackled them as a team!
