The following week Sunday morning at 4:30 am, everyone was getting ready to go to the airport.

"Ok everyone. Let's go." said Stef.
"Isn't Mike coming?" asked Jude.
"Yeah. He's just going to meet us at the airport.
A half hour later, Callie and Stef were pushing two Luggage carts through the busy airport They soon spotted Mike Foster, Stefs ex Husband Police partner and Brandon's dad standing with Brandon, Mat Chang, Marianas Boyfriend and the rest of the Band.
Brandon walked over to where Callie was loading their luggage so it could be transported to the plane, "Ok, so umm, I talked to the Band and the Parade committee and they all agreed you can come with us during the parade and sing your song.
"Awsome!!" Callie said.

Everyone Boarded the plane.
Callie and Mariana were sitting next to each other watching Pocahontas. Jude and Jesus were sitting together. Jesus was showing his Brother a Christmas Story for the first time. Mike was sitting with Brandon, "So you excited?"
"Yeah!" Brandon said, turning around in his seat looking at his dad. "What's that!"
"It's a song I'm looking over! Callie wrote it for moms! Don't tell anyone, but her Birth dad finally signed the papers allowing her to be adopted. "Wow! So do your moms' know?"
"No they don't. Callie is going to tell them Thursday. She's Joining me and the Band during the parade and singing this song."

"Because I've heard to get decent places to watch this parade you have to get up early." Stef explained.
"Callie already left with the Band." Lena told Stef. "Ok Everyone! Let's go!"
Few hours later, Everyone was sitting near Times Square. They soon seen the float that Someone's Little Sister was on. Stef and Lena were Shocked seeing Callie on the float. Standing by Lou, Brandon went to the microphone, "good morning everyone!! This is Callie. We are a Band from San Diego, California." After playing a song, their float got closer to where Stef, Lena, Mike, Jesus, Mariana, and Jude were sitting. "We have one more song for you all. My very good friend Callie, would like to sing this for my moms'." Brandon handed Callie the microphone. "Umm! Good morning, New York!" Callie said. "This is a song I wrote. It's called, 'where you Belong' and it's dedicated to the greatest mom' ever. Stef and Lena looked at each other.
The Band started playing the instrumental part. Then, Callie began to sing,
