Maggie could tell that she was happy to go downstairs to join them. She observed her daughter’s expression and lightly replied, “Mm, go ahead.”

Isabella smiled and said, “Okay!”

She then turned around, but after taking two steps, she hesitated. “Mom, are you sure you’re okay by yourself? Do you want me to stay with you?”
