The Celebration That Changed Everything
By the time Mira turned four, Theo’s career had peaked with a long-awaited promotion to partner. To celebrate, the firm hosted an elegant party in a downtown loft with brick walls, string lights, and a live band.
Sarah dressed in a sleek navy dress; Mira twirled in pink tulle with dragon clips in her hair. The night felt like triumph—years of sacrifice rewarded. Sarah watched with pride as Theo basked in congratulations, surrounded by colleagues and superiors.
Standing by the refreshment table, Sarah held Mira’s hand, soaking in the sense of stability and success.
That’s when her daughter tugged at her sleeve.
