My daughter was the only kid not invited to her best friend’s sweet 16—when I called to ask why, she whispered, “You’d better ask your husband.”
Isla and Piper had been inseparable since kindergarten. Eleven years of sleepovers, matching costumes, already planning to go to the same college together.
So when Piper started planning her Sweet 16, Isla was in on every single detail.
They spent weeks on decorations, building a playlist, choosing each other’s dresses.
“You’ll stand right beside me in every picture,” Piper promised her. Isla spent three months making her gift — a scrapbook with one photo from every single year of their friendship.
