The After-Party

by Cory Aldrich on February 5th, 2007

This is for my daughter, whose birthday was this past weekend.

For the first time today there was silence. The party favors had been trashed or sent home with guests. The cake and ice cream were put away. The music had stopped, and so had the vacuum. Exhausted, I collapsed on the couch and closed my eyes.

Fourteen smiling faces appeared, and I myself smiled, too.
