Emma glided through the garden, sun warming her skin, as a gentle breeze lifted fallen petals into a silent dance on the pathway. Blooming roses and peonies competed for center stage. Bees buzzed around, gorging on nectar. Dragonflies played tag along the hedges and butterflies flitted around gracefully, occasionally stopping on a cherry blossom.

A smiled spread across Emma’s face as she pushed the pram containing her new baby girl. Euphoria radiated from Emma as her sweet little one napped peacefully. It was a beautiful day, a day she had dreamed of for years. She inhaled a gulp of fresh air, and exhaled a deep and satisfying sigh. Perfect.
