A little girl laughed as she ran through her family's garden as the sun shined overhead.
She was five years old with short brown hair that touched her shoulders, along with bright blue eyes that were lit up with joy and she was wearing a red shirt with black pants and she was bare foot.
"You'll never catch me, Uncle!" She called over her shoulder as she glanced back at the man chasing her.
He laughed in return as he chased after his niece, who had pulled him into her little game of chase. He wasn't going to play, but when she mentioned the winner getting a prize and being known as the best at the game of chase, he agreed to play.
"We'll see about that, sweetheart." He said, grinning.
The little girl squealed, when he scooped her up into his arms. She was hoisted right off the ground with her uncle holding her against his chest. Her tiny form fit in one of his arms as he used his free hand to tap her nose.
"I win." He said grinning. "Now where's my prize?"
The little girl pouted at losing in the first place, but knew she had to give the winner the prize that was promised. So, she gave him the prize her mother always gives her. The little girl gave her uncle a small kiss on his cheek, which made him grin.
"There." She said as she pulled back with the pout still on her face.
"That was the prize?" Her uncle asked smirking.
"That's the prize." The little girl said then frowned in worry thinking he didn't like the prize. "Do you want something else?"
He let out a chuckle and tightened his hold on the kid.
"Nah, I liked my prize."
She giggled, before hugging him around the neck as he carried her towards the mansion, where her mother was sitting on the patio, smiling as they approached.
She has blonde hair that touched her shoulders and blue eyes wore a white thin sweater that reaches her elbows with a long grey skirt that went past her legs to which her feet are bare.
"Sweetie," Her mother said, just as they reached her on the patio. "I have a surprise for you~"
Her child gasped and tried to quickly get off her uncle, who chuckled as he let her down and ran over to her mother.
"What is it?!" She said, delighted as she was rocking on the heels of her feet.
Her mother, chuckled. "Close your eyes, sweetie."
The little girl close her eyes and felt her mother lean in and clipped something around her neck, straighting it a bit and then pulling away.
"Okay, open your eyes."
Her daughter did as she was told and looked down, only to gasp in awe.
Around her neck was a necklace that was a small circle with small little planets around it and a tiny blue stone in the middle.
"This is from both me and your uncle..." She said as she embraced her child, who closed her eyes as she holds her new gift in her hands. "...this shows how much we love you, sweetheart."
Her uncle watches as his niece closes her eyes and sighs as she rests her head on her mother's chest, before joining the hug and looking back down at his niece, before bringing her in a strong embrace as his sister let go of her.
"Happy Birthday.....My Sunshine."
