Caprice was more perceptive than she would appear and immediately noticed Sherry’s swollen cheeks as soon as she bent over. She raised an eyebrow and promptly pointed it out. “Mommy, why is your face swollen?”

Sherry felt a warm fuzzy feeling rising in her chest and assured Caprice with a genuine smile. “It only hurt a little when I fell, but it doesn’t hurt anymore.”

Caprice gently grazed it with her fingers.

Sherry smiled and thanked her, “Thank you, Aunt Wanda.”
