Mom Said Quote by Rachel Hawkins
““There will be Casnoff butt kicked and all sorts of names taken. And hey, maybe I’ll get some new scars." Both of them hugged me tighter. "We love you, Soph," Mom said. "Quite right," Dad added, and I laughed, even as my stomach twisted itself into a balloon animal.””
