If Only Chapter 46 Summary

Clothes

  • As awful as it is, it's time to get rid of Sophie's clothes.
  • Corinna and her dad decide to do it, then wait a week before donating them just to be sure they're ready.
  • Corinna has to throw away the clothes she cut up to make the quilt. It's awful, of course.
  • To cheer herself up, she looks through her baby book. Sophie wrote about cute things Corinna did, like calling macaroni "happironi" and "wacanoni."
  • Surprise: Her dad's sense of humor returns. Yay.
  • He plays an old joke—leaving a full-size Tootsie Roll on her bed and asking her if she forgot to take Maki out.
  • Surprise, part two: He asks her if she wants to go clothes shopping.
  • Of course she does.
