Mia clapped her hands in approval for her friend. "In the Cedillo family, you're the bee's knees!" She then gave her friend a thumbs up.

Leo also gave his aunt a thumbs up. "You are the coolest aunt."

Leo answered, "Yes, Mom, I won't go far. I'll come home every day so you can see me, okay?"

Leo, holding his car keys, left gloomily.
