It was the beginning of February now. Literally, it was Friday the first. The start of a new month, but nothing had changed yet. Everything that had been happening for the last month and more was still going on. There was no change in the news this morning that spoke of a miraculous change in the world. There was no world peace. There was no surrender from those hate groups that were targeting our people. Nothing at all had changed. Nothing except for the date that is.
I had noticed a change in my parents earlier this week. They were a little more eager to get things settled now than they had been on Monday. Yes, as a family we had taken the day off and celebrated my mom's birthday. That was something that we all felt was necessary. She may be the queen and the leader of our people, but she was still our mom, and she deserved to have a day to relax and rest.
