The phone rang and Sophia answered it with a skip in her step. It was Liam, confirming his party plans for Saturday. Sophia knew her birthday fell on the same day, but this news had an odd effect on her. The anticipation had her smiling. She felt as though she could fly.

The usual stresses of party planning were gone, replaced by an unstoppable energy that had her vibrating with the promise of a magnificent day.
