"Being the mayor's daughter, and with a mom running the only floral shop, too, that meant that her birthday parties were pretty darn big and about the funnest thing a foal could do every year. A big cake made by the towns best baker, balloons in every color, and even a bounce house most years. Even I can admit that it was pretty great when she invited us Bright Side foals, even if she did frame it as pity for us poor, stupid orphans.
