Molly still felt like she hadn't really grown up. But ever since she became a mom, everyone just assumed she was suddenly an adult-like she had to flip a switch and go from being a kid to someone who had it all figured out.

"No wonder Mia always said that before she became a mom, everyone treated her like a little girl who'd never really grown up. But after she had a baby, even she started seeing herself as an adult. Only I, Andre, kept reminding her, 'Mia's still a kid-she's still got school, still got books to read.""

"Well, if Wayne was even half as much trouble as Henry- Ow! Mom, Wayne's pulling my hair!"

Coleen was driving, but she shot a warning look in the rearview mirror. "Wayne, let go. Don't mess with your sister's hair or Grandma's gonna have words with you."

Wayne let go, wide-eyed and innocent, lips jutting out in a pout.
