“Okay, Little Miss, one more street. But then we have to head home. You have preschool tomorrow.”
“Yes!” Abby cried, taking off toward the house around the corner. As they turned, she let go of her grandmother’s hand and ran up the drive. Cathy followed, appreciating the homemade jack-o’-lanterns illuminating the path to the door.
“See if you can do it all by yourself this time,” Cathy encouraged, as the four-year-old turned to look at her, determination in her face. As the walkway took a 90-degree turn to the door, Cathy waited out of sight.
“Twick or tweet!” Abby said under her breath, before calling, “Right, Grandma?”
Cathy tried to hide a chuckle. “You have to knock first, remember?”
“I forgot!”
