To say it was a joyful day would be an understatement. My husband, Trent, had gotten a promotion, which felt like a huge step for our family. To celebrate, his boss, Kira, invited us over for dinner.

Kira and her husband, Colin, were warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. They even went out of their way to prepare vegetarian dishes for our daughter, Nora. She had just turned 12 and was starting to show those early signs of becoming a teenager.
I watched Trent laughing with Colin by the grill, while Kira took a seat beside me, smiling.
“You have a wonderful family,” Kira said.
“Thank you. You do too,” I replied, smiling at her.
