Scene: Mommy tucking Molly into bed...
Molly: Mommy, do I have a step-mom?
Mommy: (perplexed) Um... no, sweetie.
Molly: Well, why not? What is a step-mom anyway?
Mommy: (searching for the right answer...) Well, if something... um, well, happened to me and I wasn't here, and if Daddy got married, his wife would be your step-mom.
Molly: So like when you're on a trip?
Mommy: No. If I wasn't here... for a long time.
Molly: You mean like for 10 days?
Mommy: Exactly. Exactly right. If I was gone for 10 days.
