The next day, Judy is visiting to spend some time with Abby after picking her up from preschool for me. I'm in the kitchen preparing some snacks while Judy and Abby are in the living room chatting.

Judy's laughter and Abby's giggles fill the air, creating a seemingly perfect picture of family harmony.
