James woke up with a start. He knew there was something he wanted to remember. He rubbed his eyes and looked around his room. Suddenly, it occurred to him: today was his birthday! “Mom! Mom!” he called out. “It’s today!” His mother opened his door slowly. “Look out the window, James.” James leapt out of bed and ran to the window. There in the driveway was the most beautiful unicorn he had ever seen. “She’s all yours, James,” his mother said.
