Just Another Successful Parenting Mission

Juliet was tired. I think. And she was still nursing a cold. It was just the two of us, lounging around the house on a rainy day. Maddie was at school, due to be picked up in 45 minutes. I began to strategize my next mission. As any parent, cook or professional jewel thief will [...]
