Easily, if you were Alanna Botros.

Never wanting to draw too much, or any, attention to herself the 11 year old quietly allowed Emma to drag her into the shop. She was soooooo excited she might have exploded into fireworks and confetti but on the outside, the little girl looked almost subdued. The only give away to the level of energy and nerves running through her came from bright, wild eyes currently searching the shop to find a response to the question posed.

"It's a small one." She all but whispered, tugging her friend to a stop because she KNEW Emma might try to drag them to the front and others would stare and the little girl wasn't ready for that kind of anxiety on what was already such a BIG day.

Lanna glanced behind her to be sure her brother was still there before looking to the line again. What if they run out before we get there?" HOW WOULD SHE BE A PROPER WHICH THEN?????????
Emma didn't have the SLIGHTEST idea on what Lanna was going on about when she was talking about size (small wands? Those didn't EXIST did they??? Emma wanted a BIG WAND) until her bestest friend pulled back against her tugging to the back of his line. What? Oh. Fine. She bounced from one foot to another. "I want it to move faster." She wanted her wand RIGHT NOW. The wait had already been too long. Would her mama let her use it right after she got it? She peaked back a glance at her mama, who was too busy watching over Jamey to notice.

Still too busy noticing everything and everyone else, that she had to replay the words for them to really sink in and have her brown eyes growing BIG. "They don't run out! They can't run out. My papa says they have a whole BUNCH, even for when you break your wand." Which would neverrrr happen with her. But just in case, she looked back at her mama again, this time with a purpose, and then looked back at Alanna with confidence when she got a head nod. "See, I'm right. We'll get our wands!" And maybe more for her brothers too!
