Nina came bounding over, all full of enthusiasm, and threw herself at Daniel, clearly wanting him to take her outside.

Daniel held her close, gave her little chubby cheek a smooch, and then, with a bit of a side-glance at Amelia, let out a bit of juicy gossip. “The birthday girl tonight? It’s Mia Wilson from the Wilson family. Oh, her. She’s their adopted daughter.

“They had a real little daughter, but she got lost when she was tiny, and they still haven’t found her. Amelia, you and Mia are about the same age. When’s your birthday?”

Amelia replied, “I was adopted, too. My foster parents never threw me a birthday party. Guess no one knows my real birthday.”
