Cora keeps watch as presents and family stream through the door. The house is abuzz with aunts, uncles and cousins. Pots and pans are filled with food from their family’s native Cape Verde. A big party, birthday cake and all, will take place on the beach.  It seems like her family has thought of everything to celebrate Grandma’s 70th birthday but when Cora and Grandma take a nighttime walk on the beach, it is Cora that notices there is something else Grandma needs to make her celebration complete.
