The warm night air was (excuse the cliche) magical and the backyard party felt so warm and full of love. The young cousins danced with the grandparents, and all ages played dominos. The older kids took care of their younger cousins and all the babies were passed around too quickly to follow. The food was good and the sound of laughter never stopped.
Violet finally came out of her shell with the family and embraced everyone, running person to person with glee. It was so fun to watch her accept the love everyone has been waiting so patiently to lavish on her.
It feels like a new era in the family, not that it was ever a bad one. But this feels new.
