**I was on a 2-year hiatus. This was pre-written, sitting in the drafts collecting dust for that time. I am sorry it took so long to publish**

I wanted some time with Lavender in a new environment, so we embarked on a trip to Fingopolis to experience the Sweet16 Festival. Before we left, I squared up Lavender in a basketball match.

It was just after her 10th birthday, which was a blast.

Minutes after the post, Lavender liked it.

Lavender: "We show up on each other's feed because we're related, Dad 😂"

Lavender: "Our fanbases are connected because I'm your daughter."

Me: "Bruh I'm slow."

One of the infinite number of things I love about my girl is that she keeps a smile on her face, no matter the situation. The day started with me surprising Lavender in bed. I had a plate of exactly ten cupcakes, for ten years. She jumped up and blew out the candles before hugging me. I hugged back as she grabbed my hand and dragged me to the living room. 

A few months later, June 14.

I had something special planned just for this Day!!!!!!

Lavender: "Really? What is it?"

Me: "We were going to tell you guys that we were going on a trip!!!!!!!!!"

Lavender: "OMG OMG OMG!!! Where to?"

Me: "Fingopolis, in Delmarva! We purchased four tickets to the Sweet 16 Festival."

Bianka: "Yay"!

Bianka: "Wait... what's Sweet 16?"

Me: "It's an annual music festival held in Fingopolis every June."

Lavender: "I always wanted to go there! Thank you so much, Dad!"

Me: "Hehe, no problem honey."

Me: "Now you two get ready, we have to be at the airport in 40!"

Me: "Lavender, go find some clothes for Bianka."

They ran into their room to find some clothes and then into the bathroom to brush their teeth. Lavvy bathed in the hall restroom and I bathed Bianka in our master bedroom's bathroom. I dried her off and put her on some nice clothes.

"Pack whatever you like, but it can't be anything they could stop us over!" I called to them from the front.

A few minutes later... They were ready to go, with their bags full of favorite things and toys.
