A major TV show? That could add a lot of fun conflict. Good idea...

Here is chapter 1, it's really short and i'd like some feedback! haha. anyways it's about a mom, her 8 year old girl and a new boyfriend who will come in on chapter 2 or 3. Anyways Enjoy!
Characters for Chapter 1:
Teri-Mom
Emerson-Daughter
Teri paced around the room wondering about her daughter and the impact it would have on her if she started dating again,Emerson walked in to find her mom standing there staring a picture of her and Emerson."Mommy," Emerson said to attract her mom's attention. Teri turned around to the the sound of her daughters' voice."Hey hunnie," Teri said to Emerson. "What are you doing?" She asked her mom in curiosity. "Oh, well im thinking about something"she stated "Oh, what are you thinking about? You can tell me anything" Emerson stated hoping it was okay to ask "Oh,would you let mommy go out on date tonight?" She looked at Emerson "Yeah, mommy i want you to be happy." Emerson said walking over to her mom slowly giving her a hug and a kiss and Teri picked her up into her arms "You know Emerson, would you like to go to Austrailia with me next month?" Emerson's eyes just lit up "are you serious?" she asked "yes, im dead serious" Teri said smiling, and Emerson just giggled "I'd be happy to" giving her another kiss.

It seems everyone has gone over this a good number of times for grammar and what not.
Since its a beginning, my only comment is that you make it more catching. Try to give us more information on why Teri is a single mother, and who she wants to date, and how old are they all? Is Emerson a little girl, or a teenager? But be careful not to info dump when you do these things.
Like I said, make it more catching. Beginnings are usually where something changes with the characters, what is changing for Teri/Emerson that made the story start?
Hope I helped...
Okay, well I'm sticking to my promise, I'm sorry that I haven't been able to get to crit your work till now. But here we go! First of all I'm going to fix some things. I will bold the stuff that I changed. Some of the grammar stuff I will change is just how I personally would do it

Emerson walked in, finding her mommy (making it mommy gives it more of a feel for the child being young) standing there staring a picture of them together.
"Mommy," Emerson said, attracting her mom's attention.
Teri turned around to the the sound of her daughters' voice.
"Hey hunnie," Teri said.
"What are you doing?" She asked her mom in curiosity.
"Oh, well im thinking about something,"she stated.
"What are you thinking about? You can tell me anything!" Emerson said(whatever word you want) hoping it was okay to ask.(I got rid of the Oh since you just said it in the last line also, I got rid of stated because its being used too much in my opinion.)
"Would you let mommy please go out on date tonight?" She looked at Emerson.
"Yeah, mommy i want you to be happy." Emerson said walking over to her mom, slowly giving her a hug, and a kiss.
Teri picked her up into her arms.
"You know Emerson, would you like to go to Austrailia with me next month?"
Emerson's eyes just lit up, "Are you serious?" She asked.
"Yes, im dead serious." Teri said smiling, and Emerson just giggled.
"I'd be happy to!" She yelled, giving her another kiss.

Ok. First of all, remember that having stories in one big huge block paragraph is bad. Every time a new person speaks, indent.
