    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

I pack a lunch and an afternoon snack into a little capybara-themed lunch pail and pour cold water into the bottle with the pink unicorn attached to it. I set out two outfits for my five-year-old to choose from, hoping to prevent a morning clothing meltdown. I wake her slowly with kisses, comb her hair, and brush her teeth while we sing the ABCs.<p class="ct
